Stephen Miller is calling out a massive scheme in which foreign criminals are stealing billions from taxpayer-funded benefits programs. He warned that these fraud rings are using stolen identities and fake documentation to siphon off funds — with little being done to stop them.
Miller estimated that if the U.S. cracks down on these scams, it could prevent more than $1 trillion in losses over the next ten years. However, he pointed out that government agencies still lack access to the full scope of the fraud — making it difficult to track and eliminate these networks.

There's no way to know how much until DOGE gets full access.

He stressed that those in charge of investigating and stopping this abuse are government employees — not outside organizations. These officials answer directly to the president — making it imperative that they act to prevent further theft of taxpayer dollars.
Dan Bongino, former FBI Deputy Director, backed Miller’s assessment — arguing that wasteful spending is bad enough without foreign criminals cashing in. He criticized politicians for ignoring the problem — saying that fraud at this scale should outrage every American.
Bongino questioned why leaders who claim to support entitlement programs refuse to address fraud when non-citizens are involved. He argued that allowing billions to be funneled to foreign crime networks is a dereliction of duty by those in charge.
With growing evidence of widespread fraud, Miller’s call for enforcement highlights the critical need for government action before even more taxpayer money is stolen.
