When I called this morning, I got a different person who also pointed out that the Treasury had announced limits on DOGE access to supposedly secure data and the Krause dodge relative to Musk's involvement which we discussed briefly. Purely a gut feeling, and almost certainly driven to some extent by my hopes in the matter, but at least some of the staff seem to be getting the message. Whether this penetrates cult mental armor remains to be seen. Billionaires are not our friends, fight on. We shall overcome.
In Robert's essay, this stood out to me: "The agreement allows two individuals associated with Musk but employed by the Treasury Department – called special government employees – to have “read only” access to the sensitive data." What! Does that mean they can read my social security account? I didn't give permission for that. What else are they reading? And why wasn't this a total block like a TRO? Do these two individuals have any security clearance? This is beyond frightening.
Apparently they can, and it isn't clear, despite assurances from Trump's SecTreas, that their access is in fact 'read only'. The whole thing is highly illegal and is the basis for everything from calls you and I make to our legislators to lawsuits being filed as we speak. We need to keep up the public pressure.
