Trump Overhauls Social Security Amid DOGE Controversy Top Official Quits, New Leaders in Place

Since returning to office last month, President Donald Trump has embarked on a series of bold changes that extend even into the heart of the federal bureaucracy. In one unexpected turn, the top official at the Social Security Administration (SSA) has quit over the weekend—an exit linked to pressures from Elon Musk’s Department for Government Efficiency (DOGE), which has been pushing to access private records of Americans.

A Major Reshuffle at the SSA Michelle King, who had served as acting commissioner of the SSA for 30 years and was responsible for managing benefits for 73 million retirees and disabled Americans, has stepped down from her role. According to USA Today and confirmed by the White House, her resignation comes amid mounting pressure from DOGE, which is aggressively pursuing cost-cutting and anti-fraud measures across federal agencies.
