Summary

Michelle King, the top Social Security official, resigned after refusing Elon Musk’s request for sensitive records, including Social Security numbers and bank data.

Trump appointed Leland Dudek as acting commissioner and nominated Frank Bisignano for the role.

Nancy Altman of Social Security Works condemned DOGE’s request, warning, “I don’t think you can overstate how serious this breach is.”

DOGE’s similar attempts at the IRS and Treasury have sparked legal challenges over privacy concerns.

        Xitler Youth, and the inevitable Xitlergruupen when they are militarized. I would call the fascist nation, “Dogey America”. Like ‘Vichy’, but made suitably stupid enough to accurately represent the Trump Regime.
