White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt says that the $2.7 trillion in Medicare and Medicaid fraud that already has been uncovered by President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency is just part of "a very long list of fraud, waste and abuse that DOGE is identifying on a daily basis."
The question was raised during a recent White House briefing, when she was asked specifically about the $2.7 trillion revealed by a House subcommittee run by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga.
"Elon Musk also talked yesterday about Social Security payments that are going out the door for people who are no longer with us," she continued, "I would say that is certainly fraud. There's also a lot of contracts they've identified that, just as a hypothetical example, are a million bucks, but only $500,000 went out the door. So, where's the rest of that cash?"
