βͺThis scenario has been my main concern since that first 20 year old walked into a federal agency back in January. THERE ARE NO GUARDRAILS ON DOGE, and never have been.
And they are all targets for nefarious countries who want our personal info and defense secrets.

Muskβs Latest Fraud Finding Isnβt What It Seems (Gift Article)
His team found cases of seemingly fake people receiving unemployment benefits. But that fake data exists for a reason.
Elon is sowing doubt and mischaracterizing, AGAIN, what his DOGEies found in unemployment records.
And MAGA wonders why we don't trust him. Because we've learned if his lips are moving, his words are soothing ... MAGA panicans.

State tells employees to report on one another for βanti-Christian biasβ
βItβs very βHandmaidβs Taleβ-esque,β one official said.
This "tattle tale on your coworkers" attitude is disturbing. Adolescent imbeciles playing dangerous games. MAGA doesn't want government overreach against freedom of speech, but what about coworkers documenting what you say or do to the boss.

Trump Wants to Merge Government Data. Here Are 314 Things It Might Know About You. (Gift Article)
Elon Muskβs team is leading an effort to link government databases, to the alarm of privacy and security experts.
Big Brother is watching. Under the guise of rooting out fraud, abuse and solving the immigrant problem, the government will now know everything about you in one convenient database. There will no longer be such a thing as private information.

Wow. I now know Martha believes the nonsense she spews.
SHE assumes because Trump fired them, the inspectors general weren't finding fraud and abuse (they did). SHE tells Coons HE thinks there's no waste, fraud or abuse because he's against elon's tactics. She's doing what she's accusing him of.

Sounds like there's an existing beef between those two, and DeSantis is in quite a huffy mood (cause he's not fully in charge of everything in the state?).
