Senior U.S. official to exit after rift with Musk allies over payment system
A top Treasury career staffer, David A. Lebryk, announced his retirement. Surrogates of Muskβs DOGE effort had sought access to sensitive payment systems.
Democrats shld make clear to voters that this gives Musk's private sector employees the power to stop checks to any individual recipient in the US (Soc Sec, vets benefits, Medicare) as well as examine their private financial info. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.
