That nice man from El Salvador has a place for the "undead".
If you don't believe me, just ask Politico who lost their unofficial government funding because Trump is a mean orange person!
Or ask WAPO who can't find a single "undead" person who lost their official government SS number because Trump is a mean orange person!

Trump administration overrode Social Security staff to list immigrants as dead
WAPO Exclusive: archive.is

The White House told The Post that the roughly 6,000 immigrants all have links to either terrorist activity or criminal records. The official did not provide evidence of the alleged crimes or terrorist ties but said some are included on an FBI terror watch list.

Homeland Security, meanwhile, at first made less intrusive requests, according to the senior official and records obtained by The Post. DHS agents spent much of February and March trawling through years of records in E-Verify, the Homeland Security employment verification program, to identify potentially fraudulent Social Security numbers, according to the records. Agents then reached out to Social Security asking for help preventing this type of fraud, the records show.

Homeland Security also requested that Social Security staff turn over the addresses of undocumented immigrants so Immigration and Customs Enforcement could track them down for deportation, the former senior official said.

In recent weeks, Homeland Security’s requests shifted, according to the former senior Social Security official. Immigration agents began meeting with DOGE representatives at the agency to discuss how they could achieve their larger goal of pushing out tens of thousands of migrants that ICE was struggling to apprehend and deport, the official said.

That request soon morphed into the idea of placing immigrants into the deaths database, the official said.

Leland Dudek — the acting commissioner who was elevated from a low-level position after displaying public loyalty to DOGE — had qualms about the task, according to two people with knowledge of his thinking. He thought it was illegal, the people said.

Then Homeland Security Secretary Kristi L. Noem intervened — and Dudek agreed to move forward.
