How is the Trump administration addressing Social Security fraud and what are their goals?

The Trump administration has directed Elon Musk and the DOGE team to identify fraud at the Social Security Administration, particularly suspected fraudulent payments to deceased individuals. Their three main goals are to identify and end duplicate payments, to stop payments going to deceased people, and to protect the system's integrity for hardworking Americans who have paid into it. The administration emphasizes that legitimate Social Security recipients will continue to receive their checks, contrary to what they describe as fear-mongering from media outlets.
