Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

The author of this piece was an associate WH counsel under Reagan. He has a very polite way of explaining that what Trump is doing with DOGE is a coup. wapo.st/4hSE7Ox

Keep DOGE Out of Our Data Trump has given DOGE unrestricted access to our personal info, from finances to health records. Join me in demanding accountability.

Trump's latest power grab is allowing DOGE to access our bank accounts, health records, and Social Security numbers with no transparency or accountability.

Tell Congress: Keep DOGE out of our data.

Trump and Apple better tell the UK to go to hell with its demand to access Americans’ private, encrypted texts and files. Trump and American tech companies letting foreign governments secretly spy on Americans would be an unmitigated privacy and national security disaster.

BREAKING: We submitted FOIA requests to more than 40 federal agencies demanding answers about the so-called Department of Government Efficiency's unrestricted access to Americans' data.

We're also calling on Congress to conduct immediate oversight of DOGE's invasion of privacy.

β€œMusk and his β€œDOGE” team ransacked the Treasury Department...triggering widespread chaos and alarm.”

Though DOGE broke it, Dems must step up, take action and fix it. Alex Aronson, Executive Director or Court Accountability explains.

Trump White House moves to allow for a Musk takeover of government IT The Office of Personnel Management is trying to make it easier to put ideologues and cronies in key tech roles.

The Office of Personnel Management, now overseen by Elon Musk, just issued a memo to all heads of federal agencies ordering a startling change in the status of CIOs.

It signals Musk's potential move to take over the IT of the entire federal government.

Elon Musk is committing a lot of felonies. He belongs in jail, and so do his criminal associates. He may not comprehend that. And if and when he does it may make him more reckless. No assumptions about where we go from here.

How the Muskrat is messing with your social security, your religion, and everything else He and his goons must be stopped

I can think of at least eight federal laws that have been broken by Musk and his goons over the last few days, and at least two provisions of the U.S. Constitution.

They must be stopped.

The law is clear that cities and states have every right to focus on serving their residents, instead of helping ICE detain and deport them.

On today’s episode of β€œif Obama”

If Obama fired over a dozen inspectors general in the middle of the night, the media would have (appropriately) excoriated him over the illegality and absolutely tanked his approval ratings

Trump does it, and CNN calls it a β€œshakeup”

Shameful.
