This episode explores the issue of fraudulent Social Security number issuance and its implications for American society and the integrity of elections. Against the backdrop of a presentation by Antonio Gracias, a volunteer working within the Social Security Administration, the panel analyzes a chart revealing a dramatic increase in Social Security numbers issued to non-citizens, particularly after the COVID-19 pandemic. More significantly, Gracias's investigation uncovered a lack of proper ID verification and a high number of individuals with unknown or general parole statuses, many of whom subsequently registered to vote, a federal crime. For instance, the analysis revealed a disproportionate number of individuals claiming January 1st as their birthdate, suggesting fraudulent activity. The discussion then pivots to the broader implications of this issue, including the potential for voter fraud and the strain on social services. Ultimately, the panel concludes that this is not merely a political issue but a matter of national security and the integrity of American democracy, highlighting the need for stricter verification processes and potential legal action against those involved in fraudulent activities. What this means for the future of American governance and immigration policy is a complex issue requiring further investigation and reform.
