Who is the Administrator of the United States DOGE service?

No one seems to know.

After a hearing on DOGE access to Treasury payment systems, @tylermcbrien.bsky.social and I asked one of the DOJ attorneys who argued on behalf of the administration.

“I don’t know the answer to that,” he replied.

I’m just out of a hearing in NYC over DOGE’s access to Treasury payment systems.

The judge did not immediately rule on the plaintiff’s request for a preliminary injunction, but she temporarily extended an order that limits access to the system. We’ll discuss live: www.youtube.com/live/rHTeADG...

Y'all need to stop legitimizing DOGE.

activistmoderate.bsky.social•8 days ago

Elon & his merry band of DIGITAL BROWNSHIRTS. We are witnessing an electronic coup. Fight back! Confront the incels. Picket their lodgings. Write "Douche" on every Tesla you see. Egg Elon. Harass Fox News employees. Shout down GOP members. Protest and, most of all, shame those who have no shame.

Trump wants all Federal employees back in the office.

Does anyone know where Musk's office is?

Or does he just assume he's sharing the oval one?

Look how stupid the media looks.

Yesterday, an amended complaint was filed in Lentini v. DOGE, a case in which the plaintiffs allege that Musk/DOGE have violated the Federal Advisory Committee Act.

The plaintiffs claim that Musk, while taking credit for DOGE’s activities, “is not the USDS administrator.”

He is the Schrödinger employee. Both the administrator and a SGE but also neither

They can hire an intern to be administrator. Musks role wont be a formal role to avoid conflicts of intrest. Doge is just name added to usds, which was started under obama

The lawsuit alleges that if he is an administrator, he is governed by the congressional laws establishing the office, and if he is not, then he is governed by laws allowing the president to create advisory positions. Advisory positions require public transparency and cross-political representation.

Im sure they will provide whatevers required

Ergo...he is a foreigner interfering in Federal processes and stealing from our Treasury. Right in front of your eyes.

Sadly, he's got U.S. citizenship. One wonders how he passed the civics portion of the test.

No one knows anything in this administration. They are just winging it and the world knows.

When a traitor tries to take over our government they should be shot.

schlonnaschlouisee.bsky.social•7 days ago

DOGE isn’t a formal government agency so they actually don’t have an administrator or employees. E just pays these hacker thugs.

Did they bring up Social Security recipients in other countries are not receiving checks? PROBABLY NOT

grandmajujuy.bsky.social•8 days ago

No Doge-bag administrator, because it does not exist. In order for it to exist, Congress has to authorize it through legislation, and give it a budget. They haven’t.

nanilisa.bsky.social•7 days ago

Some of ya'll brilliant folks out there have to make the case to MAGA in MAGA speak that Musk is a Globalist trying to Usher in a New "techno" World Order and that he
also owns a company that makes "brain chips". (Maybe he put one in T rump which made him so Docile in the Oval.)

Trump and Bessent just handed over the keys to the treasury, no questions asked. Wonder why! Oh, I know because Elon bought them.

godot411.bsky.social•8 days ago

What was the bank that allowed a cleared transaction to be taken from an account without notice or due process? Shouldn’t this be a story in its own right? How safe is the banking system if this can be done?

There’s no Administrator because there’s no department. It’s just a bunch of hoodlums and their lead criminal destroying our country.

Elon's brownshirt twinks.

nobswilly.bsky.social•8 days ago

Musk/Trump has attempted to freeze $3 trillion in government loans and grants, shut down entire agencies. which contradicts the U.S. Constitution and 1974 Impoundment Control Act the executive’s role in disbursing those funds.
FelElon47 Officials have virtually No Discretion to Block Payments...

Unconventional is modus operandi, the Administration is trampling the law, so don’t expect norms.

No access until we know the administrator NONE

kylereese77.bsky.social•7 days ago

Thats not how it works.
The boss of these agencies is trump. Doge is just an executive team to evaluate the workings of gov. Doge is usds, which was started by obama

All of this would make a great bizarre dystopian movie, a la Brazil, if it weren’t so dangerous and destructive.

Someone else saw Brazil. :-)

deveryty.bsky.social•8 days ago

They don't have an administrator, they're not an actual federal entity. Congress didn't create DOGE, what's being done is being done through perceived presidential authority. It's all on the illegal side of the grey line.

No one "seems" to know or no one knows?

Sounds like an evasive answer. Like don’t ask, don’t tell. Deflect, deflect, deflect…

This is so absurd. "I'm just following orders, Your Honor. No, I have no idea whose orders, or who's in charge; I just got this unsigned email telling me to dismantle the government, so I showed it to the security guard, they let me in, and that's what I'm doing."

Can't believe it's been permitted to get this far
