Leland Dudek: Social Security is in a far more precarious place than has been widely understood.

He said it would be catastrophic for the people in our country if DOGE were to make sweeping changes at his agency.

Dudek embodies the dramatic whipsawing of life as a public servant under the Trump administration.

Many Social Security employees are confused about Dudek , his role versus DOGE , according to ProPublica 's conversations with more than two dozen agency staffers.

The president amplified his claim that millions of probably-dead people over the age of 100 are receiving Social Security benefits in a speech to Congress in which he implied they were receiving benefits.

He said he wanted to bulk up resources for field offices and customer service.

At times, Dudek sounded fatalistic: âIâm in a role that I did not expect to be in, he said.

Dudek will eventually be replaced by Frank Bisignano , Trump 's long-term pick to run the Social Security Administration .
