Then it was about “software modernization.”

Now it’s assisting federal law enforcement investigations?

When actually it is about data mining & compromising our national security & private information. https://youtu.be/BV9g0MfvMtk

And making Musk the only game in town for govt contracts

mikehext.bsky.social•53 days ago

Its also a smoke screen to fool gullible into being ok w/ losing social security, veteran affairs, medicaid, and Medicare. It's all about the grift. These are just to remove investigators & accountability. Not to mention revenge firings too. The more cuts the less their crimes uncovered.

rapbastardz.bsky.social•53 days ago

Just like tariffs were to punish countries for fentanyl. Then tariffs were to encourage manufacturing. Then tariffs were for replacing income tax. But remember the only reason the president can legally set tariffs is because of emergency powers since it’s really only congress’s job.

Huh???

jpjh88.bsky.social•53 days ago

I'll wait to see the evidence and court filings before making an opinion. So many questions, like what role did the non-existent US Department of Government Efficiency play in this investigation? What statutory authority does DOGE have to take part in any LE investigation?

mdlp.bsky.social•53 days ago

In a bit of sad irony, the man arrested had filed multiple lawsuits as he felt he was being harassed by 'illegals' at his bakery job and wrote to Trump in support of his approach to immigration.. from the NYTimes article.

naughtydogmom.bsky.social•53 days ago

Wait.... Did he illegally vote Trump in the 2020 election? 🤔

jpjh88.bsky.social•53 days ago

Dont know who he voted for. That said, the charge is only a misdemeanor that carries a maximum 1 yr sentence. The fact that they have a big press release about it is laughable to begin with.

naughtydogmom.bsky.social•53 days ago

Trump still trying to convince ppl he won 2020 by pointing out the one illegal vote (which was probably cast for him.)

jpjh88.bsky.social•53 days ago

In a state he lost bigly

oakelm.bsky.social•53 days ago

More than one but only a handful of cases. Here is one article for Colorado, think there was another in Florida.

oakelm.bsky.social•53 days ago

That was what I immediately thought considering 99% of the few cases voted for the GOP with a lion’s share for Trump.

Elon has his badge and paid for pretend time.

kmbates.bsky.social•52 days ago

Illegal search and seizure of private information?

bederatliff.bsky.social•53 days ago

I guess that's why they want everyone's bank accounts and tax info and student loan info and medical records and everything else. Easier to share with law enforcement

oakelm.bsky.social•53 days ago

pjspassions.bsky.social•53 days ago

It was always about stealing the personal information of American's.

buffy-slayer.bsky.social•53 days ago

It was always about stealing your data.

karmelville.bsky.social•53 days ago

They're modern day Renaissance men who can do it all!

serioustalk.bsky.social•53 days ago

Frightening. And, on top of that, they're issuing press releases for misdemeanors. Trump's "rough hour" is upon us.

404apathy.bsky.social•53 days ago

Sure. What did we think they'd do with all the data they're scraping.

steve-friedrich.bsky.social•53 days ago

The data that they kept or the data that they sent to Russia and China?

Don't worry that the data will get stale though. They've installed back-doors and kill-switches too.

404apathy.bsky.social•53 days ago

The data are the same.

steve-friedrich.bsky.social•53 days ago

Yes. Criminal activity in every direction!

What is the actual mission statement?

suzai.bsky.social•53 days ago

DOGE needs to be put down.

deanbooth.bsky.social•53 days ago

The news headlines portray DOGE as the hero of this story. Ugh, it’s a PR blitz to make up for firing thousands, etc.

azgict.bsky.social•52 days ago

DOGE usernames and passwords were used to log in from Russian IP addresses. That is about the sum of it.

slayeraz.bsky.social•53 days ago

It is a citizen committee with no authority to do any of this. Dems need to sue them sideways.

handcraftedflair.bsky.social•53 days ago

DOGE coders don't have the bandwidth to analyze the master data they stole. They can't tell the difference between good or bad data. As a result, they ran scripts to fire people, including those in charge of nuclear weapons, and end programs like Ebola prevention efforts.

handcraftedflair.bsky.social•53 days ago

DOGE coders made many master data mistakes, including the belief that dead contracts were live. Thus, adding them and other erroneous savings to the wall of receipts. Despite their incompetence, those 4 coders will receive $1.3 million dollars from the DOL over an 18-month period.

marshallg0402.bsky.social•53 days ago

Biggest data mining operation we’ve ever run in this country and it’s run by the people with no morals or oversight.

coffeedude82.bsky.social•53 days ago

I work for a small business that is partnered with a larger company. We have a contract with DOI to do software. There was an all-hands meeting and the CEO said that we have a new contract that DOGE had approved. I was dumbfounded by that statement! My first thought was WTF?

premoe-williams.bsky.social•53 days ago

ICE are the brown shirts.

DOGE is the GESTAPO.

doctordee.bsky.social•53 days ago

It’s always been about buying time for Elon to steal your data and government money.

tenej-jen.bsky.social•52 days ago

And this morning, don’t blink, doge will also be investigating “rigged polls” that say someone has very low popularity and approval numbers, historically low. Of course. This makes perfect sense in his nightmare of madness.

tsunami65.bsky.social•52 days ago

It's about ripping off the American public and further enriching irs boss.

andyfraser.bsky.social•53 days ago

Wasn’t it always about stealing data?

I mean, technically it was ORIGINALLY about "software modernisation" when it was the USDS but then somebody put some jumped up junkie in charge of it...

Now all restaurants are Taco Bell"

Now all agencies are DOGE 🤬

stuxnetstudios.bsky.social•53 days ago

Money, code and data.

Yep, that's the order I'd steal.

It was always about vigilance

susanhendrick.bsky.social•53 days ago

And now DOGE has access to our nuclear secrets. They need to be stopped!

susanhendrick.bsky.social•53 days ago

DOGE is about creating the surveillance state. Monitoring women’s reproductive cycles is coming soon. Software will also be used to eliminate opposition as well as pursue the goals of Dark Enlightenment.

reneeincarnation.bsky.social•53 days ago

I mean, how can enlightenment be dark? They are dark imbeciles.

We know the Republicans are hypocrites. Just can we skip all the small accusations and jump directly to the accurate assessment at the end: Republicans are authoritarians.

jeromecylin.bsky.social•53 days ago

DOGE does have an illegal copy of all US information.
So...

tom2050.bsky.social•53 days ago

sheaashkvar.bsky.social•53 days ago

The sole objective of DOGE was to collect n steal national data from all federal agencies! Personal n corporate information!!

That’s the most valuable source for emusk to go trillionaire n hurt his rivals/adversaries!

DOGE’s Loud Noises was part of the theft, just like every high profile heist!

thatshockratees.bsky.social•53 days ago

Seems like the mission is “whatever gives the little Nazi creeps a stiffie and drug money”

thereallajones.bsky.social•53 days ago

They are still just rape-stealing everything they they shove their incel connectors into. 🤬 Those puppies need to be NEUTERED. 😡

drrxufa.bsky.social•52 days ago

It IS about theft from US government for the financial benefit of @elonmusk and blocking lawful prosecutions and investigations of fraudulent practices by his companies.

earthfan.bsky.social•52 days ago

Has no stated mission. Wasn’t created by Congress. Not vetted for security risks. Access to the most private restricted databases. Russia has their logins in real time.

pazke.bsky.social•53 days ago

It was never about anything but data theft and dismantling the regulatory boards who were standing in Leon's way.

z3maira.bsky.social•53 days ago

With these people "in charge" i believe 0% of any allegations they may charge anytime.

ptarnation.bsky.social•53 days ago

a common question that has been resonating w at least some rw people is “if doge is finding all of this fraud, why isn’t anybody being charged with anything?”

this gives doge / the wh something they can point at, even if their “assisting” was pulling up a specific person’s info by request of le

usernamem123.bsky.social•53 days ago

Doge and ICE are about to have a baby.

kv417.bsky.social•52 days ago

His military birthday parade, essentially giving himself a Kings bday Trooping the Colour, in the name of the Army’s anniversary, has all the makings to turn into an “accidental” martial law event 🤦‍♀️.

kim326.bsky.social•53 days ago

DOGE is what they want it to be.

jema9.bsky.social•53 days ago

How can they even call this the U.S. DOGE. Like it’s an official government organization. It’s just some flumdumb shit thrown together with unvetted children running around hacking the systems. Man oh man. I hate everything this regime is.

atriana.bsky.social•53 days ago

Let's wait for the whole story.

A reminder that T-Mobil is partnering with Elon Musk’s Starlink. I dumped them for Verizon. When I told the sales rep why, he waved my transfer fee. I don’t do business with Nazis, or anyone who does.

There is no "US Dept of Government Efficiency". It's made up crap pretending to be legitimate.

mikehext.bsky.social•53 days ago

There is actually *2* of them. One was renamed U.S. Digital Service. The other Dept of Gov Efficiency. Both were created by executive order. One ends July 2026 the other apparently was never staffed? All a shell game.

samhainnight.bsky.social•53 days ago

THIS!!!

It's about whatever the drug-addled racist South African illegal immigrant traitor wants it to be about today.

Department of so-called government efficiency.
Why did we just bow to calling it doge?

idkiguess.bsky.social•53 days ago

What data would they be compiling to support this situation 🤔
