This speaks for itself. And if this happens, Trump and Musk are in deep doo doo.
Social Security has never missed a payment. DOGE actions threaten ‘interruption of benefits,' ex-agency head says
The U.S. Social Security Administration has never missed a benefit payment.
Now the continuity of monthly checks for millions of Americans could be at risk following changes under the Trump administration, former commissioner Martin O'Malley says.
Social Security has never missed a benefit payment since the program first began sending individuals monthly benefits more than eight decades ago.
But the recent actions at the U.S. Social Security Administration by Elon Musk's so-called Department of Government Efficiency are putting monthly benefit checks for more than 72.5 million Americans at risk, former commissioner and former Maryland governor Martin O'Malley told CNBC.com.
"Ultimately, you're going to see the system collapse and an interruption of benefits," O'Malley said. "I believe you will see that within the next 30 to 90 days."
Ahead of any interruption in benefits, "people should start saving now," O'Malley said.
