Trump on DOGE obtaining Americans' personal information, including social security numbers and bank numbers: "They get it very easily. We don't have very good security in our country."

The problem with the mainstream press is their inability to even formulate the simplest follow-up (and frankly, obvious) question. For example: “Mr. President…aren’t you the one solely responsible for allowing them to access that data in the first place?” Seems easy, doesn’t it? And yet…🦗
Remember how the Clintons got hauled over the coals for some land deal. That's nothing on today's scale. And Bill went through the wringer for having consensual non-relations? He wasn't convicted of anything yet everyone was in uproar. Felon rapist faces no consequences
So the president is saying he knows the system is poor and he’s letting the data get stolen. Does not sound like good legal standing. Why wouldn’t every person sue
him just to at least slow things down
Are we really letting this happen? What the hell are our leaders and law enforcement doing to stop this? This is a domestic attack on this country. Arrest these gangsters.
There's been protests in all 50 states this past week, but the mainstream media isn't reporting on it. Also, the country is so big and decentralized that protesting doesn't quite work the same as it does in a place like Berlin or Seoul.
Every “investment made” was authorized by Congress through passage of appropriation acts and/or specific legislation. The executive branch civil service has no authority to “make investments”. The executive branch has no authority to terminate obligations authorized by Congress.
Trump is not qualified to be president of the United States! There is no reason for the employees of DOGE to have access to payment systems of the Treasury Department. This will create an opportunity for Trump and DOGE to steal money from the United States. Trump is a criminal!
Biden would stutter and sometimes his voice would trail off, so he was senile. This guy spews this nonsensical word salad, but nothing to see here. He’s the senior citizen falling for Musk’s phishing scam.
"America First" was a committee to oppose the USA getting involved in WW2, and spreading antisemitic propaganda. The phrase is American Nazi in origin.
Sure looks like he’s gonna make China great. Turning America into an isolated place no country wants to do business with.
Working with America just enough to play verbal favor games to appease Trump till these four years are over.
Im curious. What miracle do U think will transpire in 4 yrs? Dems will grow spines? Become/work with brilliant strategic planners? Have sound plans for all the things they say/promise they will do that truly support the people?
What does that miracle look like after “4” years of mass destruction?
The Democrats could take back the House in a couple of months.
The most difficult thing right now is trying to control propaganda. Our government has been infiltrated heavily by Russian and Chinese money, let alone greedflation by corporations.
People will flee en masse, illegal or not; the goon squad will stereotype millions. In 4 years, there will be nothing left in our American flag that represents who we are as a republic. If Democrats are powerless now, I imagine that even the flag will be redesigned to demonstrate who we were.
He is right. He destroyed our security. They committed high crimes and treason and no one has been arrested. There is no security. Congress is just words.
Trump: “Let me pay you, open the door for you, give you the access codes to enter, provide the hardware for an external download, and also fire the security guard at the door.”
Because he has dementia. Elon came over to pop pops while everyone was working and just asked him for his little black book and pop pop just handed it over, and so now the whole family has to worry about identity theft.
Never minimize your opponent. The plan is taking advantage of Donald's cult of personality and his thirst for power to gain unrestricted access to the levers of government. He's just the door opener.
We had security until the felon told his goons to give admin level access to muskrat and company. Who then uploaded our data to unsecured servers, harddrives, etc.
There's no security when you voluntarily hand a thief the key to your house.
Yes, we don't have very good security in our country since January 20th 2025. . . someone please tell him he's the government now and the buck stops with him (then ask him if he knows what that means).
Well, I think we should all bring a lawsuit against him personally for invading our privacy and taking our information without our permission. Having access to all of our files and what we got going on. That's bull crap we have rights. We are still US citizens and we are the people
Of course it's easy to get Americans private info when someone just hands you the keys and allows you to download what you want. What a pos!! Does he think we're stupid, we know who gave our info away to Musk!!🤬
Yep It is now! It's gone. I called my Congressman's office this morning and spoke with staffer, he said "everything should be secure" at which point I started yelling at him You don't know! The Congressman doesn't know! And most importantly, THE POTUS DOESNT HAVE A GODDAMN CLUE WHATS HAPPENING!!
WTF?? I’d say the security measures protecting us were sufficient until musk bought his way into the white house to get direct access to things he has zero business accessing.
And, no, autocorrect I don’t want you capitalizing the white house as it’s been tainted.
He will never give a straightforward answer. It's always about how terrible something is and then goes on to blame democrats. They talk about having transparency and then give answers like this...
The issue isn't Musk/DOGE getting our SSNs; he probably *already* had that information.
It's that they are getting access to a lot of other information that they could have never had access to before (health info, student loan info, etc.) and shoving it into Grok for who-knows-what-reason.
You know? I don’t think really care about that. My private info is out in the dark web. But I care that they are seeing payment systems, competitors info, classified intel, and every manner of state secret in addition to private data. That is the most intrusive part.
For public exposure and potential humiliation if you speak up. They no longer need their dirt-digger,in-chief, Mike Roman, whose methods are obsolete. Everything about you is stored on Elon Musk's AI. You speak against them, and the Nazi Gestapo releases The Kraken.
What if these jags get into our checking accounts and make all the money go away? If you get direct deposit of your tax return, they have your info. I opened a new account at a different bank just in case. I was planning on doing that anyway after Capital one's latest fiasco.
Musk, an unelected private individual who donated hundreds of millions to the GOP, is accessing sensitive data and risking national security (bypassing Congressional power); Trump’s complicit.
It’s on us, the voters. If we’re apathetic they’ll dismantle our democratic republic in front of us. If we resist in every way, slow the hostile takeover, gum up the works by forcing firings/suing and replace incompetent legislators we may have a chance. Do not comply in advance.
A bunch of companies and universities and federal agencies have already made the mistake of anticipatory compliance.
Exp. Regime roll out of white supremacist “anti-DEI” policy - ppl rush to remove anything related to DEI. Make it hard not easy - ask asinine q’s, lose docs, lose keys, unplug stuff…
This reminds me of a town hall with Rep Lynn Westmoreland (~2007). In Q&A, an elderly man talked about how he'd been the victim of identity theft, how new fake accounts kept opening, and he asked for legislative help.
Westmoreland said, "We tend to give our [SSN] out too freely." WTAF??!
To his credit he’s not wrong. Federal employees handing over full and complete access of their computer networks to an unelected unappointed clown in charge of a nine existent government agency because a lunatic president told them to do so is a real security issue.
The brainless moron had no idea what’s going on. He probably thinks he’s still campaigning against Biden. Well done voters of the USA. How are your egg prices?
Door has 20 locks on it. Person is coerced to open all locks, and prop the door open for a burglar. Person abides. Burglar walks in and starts taking stuff.
When you give them unfettered access to the computers of course it’s easier to get the information. What stupid fucking so called president. Peter Doocy is a Fox Douchebag.
Yes, even our most incompetent adversaries could steal our secrets if we let them in the front door, logged them in past the security protocols and helped then plug-in their portable hard drives.
Although, I've given that some thought I now believe it may be Musk or Vance. tDump is too stupid on his own. He's just signing what's put in front of him. Giving Musk the reins. He's the problem. Vance is very quiet waiting for someone to take out tDump. He'll then blame it all on Musk & tDump.
Trump, if not the biblical Antichrist is at least a political one. Jesus explicitly told his disciples what acts they must perform to get into heaven: Feed the hungry, care for refugees, house and clothe the homeless, heal the sick, have compassion for those in prison. That's it. Trump’s 💯 opposite.
Then I suppose he'd be OK if someone got his social security number & posted it somewhere giving a bunch of stranger's access. Wouldn't that be fun to look at his bank numbers.
Trump: “We don’t have very good security in our country.
(You can even take Top Secret documents outa the White House and store ‘em in your unsecured bathroom.)”
Oh they ARE listening. Somewhere out there now are some very unsecured plug in drives and laptops with the keys to the kingdom on them. There will be teams of foreign agents looking to get hold of one of them.
Where is the follow up question
You gave Elon permission and guards to get into the building and to our Social Security numbers
And what are they planning on doing with it?
The fact that him and his cronies are doing this all in our faces tells me the fix was always in and they know little to nothing will be done to stop them. We are indeed fricasseed 😖
He's full of shit, but our numbers aren't fantastic. Last year, hackers stole pretty much every single social security number. 1.4 million people were the victim of identity theft. I've had a freeze on my account for almost a year now and I won't be lifting it with him at the helm.
Freezing credit files and using 2 factor authorization is like locking your door at night. Great deterrent for safety.
The US government has many attempted hacks and it’s pretty good. US businesses could do better and need laws to guide them. Sadly, many social security numbers are from them.

Freeze your credit people.
in one week!!! I’m sure we will hear about it in his expert testimony sometime.
him just to at least slow things down
And let’s get that case leaked
The highest-ranking career official who was in charge REFUSED to give them access, he was placed on administrative leave. The new Treasury Secretary got sworn in & gave them access right away.

Part of the plan is taking advantage of Donald Dementia.....
There's no security when you voluntarily hand a thief the key to your house.
It’s a lot shorter and says the same thing..
Now we don’t.
Trump did that.
And, no, autocorrect I don’t want you capitalizing the white house as it’s been tainted.
Every single thing he says is projection.
It's that they are getting access to a lot of other information that they could have never had access to before (health info, student loan info, etc.) and shoving it into Grok for who-knows-what-reason.
It’s why I propose
Fighting their EGOS
Not their ACTIONS

Project 2025 is treason

It’s a FN coup.
Impeach/remove/arrest/charge anyone involved.

We have no rule of law in the USA, primarily because of the GOP, but also because of trump!
The GOP IS ROOT CAUSE!
The President of the United States is having a full mental breakdown on live tv and the whole world can see it.
Trump: house had terrible security
But that's totally different from allowing someone to have full access to everything because you want to be a dictator.
Thieves…

Is this why most Europeans are so bitter about government?! They’ve seen this play out so many times.

My conversations with MAGA acquaintances, good & smart enough, reveal they heed propaganda & without much critical thinking.
Entertained (angered) by lies, they’ve come to trust nothing & believe everything.
Policy ideas built on mean fantasy leads to a felon as President.
A simple case blown to smithereens by a MAGA Cannon.
So like, a super admin login to lock out overall permissions. But….that’s like…a king.
Ooooooooohhhh
Not fair to think that a morally solid professional would take action. Even rage won't compromise their values.
But it may be that only a small band of patriots who see the threat and their roles in history can end this 🇺🇸
Does he even realize what he's saying?
Russia if you're listening...
You gave Elon permission and guards to get into the building and to our Social Security numbers
And what are they planning on doing with it?
And what investments is he talking about?
Our nation has amazing cybersecurity. If it didn’t, we would all be actively defrauded regularly and have regular identity theft.
He’s going to sell out outlets government to Russia. Literally. Have them manage our systems.
The US government has many attempted hacks and it’s pretty good. US businesses could do better and need laws to guide them. Sadly, many social security numbers are from them.
