These men behind bars are not in prison after being charged with crimes. They are "enemy combatants" being detained in a concentration camp. As such, Kristi Noem's crass photo-op using them as props violates the Geneva Convention's prohibition of ‘exposure to public curiosity’ of those captured.

I think it misunderstands how right wing propaganda works. Virtually ALL of DOGE's claims have been fraudulent. It's just like Twitter Files. The point is not to make truth claims, it's to create a false scandal right wingers will adhere to and to get cover to do entirely unrelated things to govt.

18F, the federal government’s technology shop, was demolished by Musk’s team shortly after midnight. It was a cost-recoverable org, charging agencies for their expertise, using a consulting model. Its cost to government was negligible, its benefits huge. My team there once saved DoD $500 billion.
