Judge Ellen Lipton Hollander issued a temporary restraining order barring Elon Musk’s DOGE Boys from gaining access to personally identifiable information from the Social Security Administration. But now Donald’s interim Social Security chief says he wants to shut down the program that is an essential safety net program for seniors and people with disabilities if the bratty, narcissistic billionaire and DOGE can’t access Americans’ most sensitive data.
Rolling Stone reports:
“My anti-fraud team would be DOGE affiliates. My IT staff would be DOGE affiliates,” said Lee Dudek, acting Social Security Administration (SSA) commissioner, arguing the order was too broad, according to Bloomberg News. “As it stands, I will follow it exactly and terminate access by all SSA employees to our IT systems,” he said, adding: “Really, I want to turn it off and let the courts figure out how they want to run a federal agency.”
