DOGE executive Antonio Gracias, the founder of Valor Equity Partners, joined the All In podcast on X.
During their discussion, Antonio revealed shocking information on how illegal aliens and even violent illegal aliens are accessing government benefits and even voting.
Antonio Gracias: We mapped it through to the benefit programs. We found in the benefit programs that every benefit program that was being accessed by these people, 1. 3 million of them are on Medicaid right now, today. And by the way, it’s just ramping. It’s just starting. Just to give you a point. And then out of curiosity, I woke up at 2: 00 in the morning. I couldn’t sleep. My mind was running on this. I sent the individual note saying, Hey, guys, let’s just look at the public voter rolls who we find in some friendly states. And we looked at the voter rolls, and we found that thousands of them were registered to vote in a handful of states. And then we went in further with those friendly states and found that many of those people had actually voted. It was shocking to us.
If I hadn’t seen it in my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe it. And so now the question we’re asking ourselves is, what do we do? We refer to some to prosecution that’s ongoing right now. We’re thinking through how to do it. And the reality is they have various kinds of status, and it’s a very detailed analysis, legally, they’re working through right now about how to deal with it.
Jason Calacanis: So thousands of those people registered to vote?
Antonio Gracias: Yes.
Jason Calacanis: In the election.
Antonio Gracias: Which is a federal crime, by the way…
…Oh, no. Jason, it’s more than a thousand. I’ve seen it. I’ve seen the data myself, and it’s more than a thousand in just a couple of states. I mean, it is shockingly bad. And this is the tip of the iceberg, guys. It’s the tip of the iceberg. It doesn’t include the 7. 8 million people that ICE has that have come in illegally that know we’re here, and all the people that came illegally we don’t know are here. I mean, this is not a political issue. I want to be really clear about this. This is about America.
Chamath Palihapitiya: Antonio, let’s just take one step back because I just want you to repeat this because I think it’s important and we may have just run over it a little too quickly. When you get a social security number, what you’re saying is there’s all of these important downstream consequences. One of downstream consequences is you could show up, register to vote, and that’s an illegitimate action that’s breaking federal law. That’s one. But the second is that without knowing who this person is, they can start to absorb resources that could have otherwise gone to an American. I guess that’s a fundamental part of this.
