Assuming "Waste, fraud, and abuse have been deeply entrenched in our broken system for far too long," there is still no need for any developer to have access to the live system. I'm sure there is a test system used by the QA team with test data. They can use this to do their "investigation"
They only want to sell your data to Mountain Dew or Nike for profits through your social media. They'll hand over anything vital to you they dig out of the government files to foreign governments and have a handshake under the table for kickbacks. Elon is a foreign asset.
That's how Elon got Jay Z financial information. How else would he know that Jay Z paid for his wife Grammy? Then, he had the nerve to say DOGE was hacked. Now, when the information goes public, they'll have an excuse. I guarantee they looked up the Biden & Obama family. So much for privacy.
Elmo's brat brigade needs to undergo background checks at the very goddamn least at this point. Those of them that have violated classified documentation, personal and financial documentation should be fired on the spot. There are people being fired for simply existing every day right now.
I think they are all in denial! I had a trumpy coworker tell me "you can't live your life in fear"..uh, yes..yes I can. There's is a lot to fear right now!
@nbcnews.com who does this employee need to get permission to access from? Would be a huge help for the public to have this info as it gives us an avenue to reach out and urge them to protect our information. Obviously, our taxpayer data has nothing to do with govt. spending
Why aren't democratic Congress members in place inside an institution about to be raided?
Why am I not watching this on TV?
Why no pre emptive convergences of media and politicians to protect what is ours?
He won't sell the info. It will be used by xAI and all the other AI related projects MuSSk has and for which he needs the big data he has stolen from the federal databases.
Under 26 U.S.C. §7213A unauthorized access of taxpayer records is punishable by fines & imprisonment. Unauthorized disclosure of taxpayer info is a felony (26 U.S.C.§7213), w penalties of fines & 5 yrs in prison. Taxpayers can seek civil damages (26 U.S.C. §7431) if their info is unlawfully accessed
1 problem is these people are not dumb/incompetent, they are truly sinister sociopaths seeking loopholes nobody ever thought of before as NOBODY has been so brazenly corrupt. e.g of claim: no such thing as "unauthorized access" if PotUS can declassify anything/give clearance to/pardon anyone by whim
Great point. We certainly need smart, competent, and eager law folks that will help fend off and go after these criminals. There is also a social study that recommends 3.5% of the population of each state to protest on the streets to bring about accountability and change.
I fear Musk may want this info to identify people who don’t have children (check who has dependents). He may use this info to prioritize firings/eventually purge voter roles.
Time for the 2025 Democrat tea party! They are releasing our information and what are we getting in return for our tax dollars? Less service! No taxation without services. Maybe the egg party?
🚨People should put a freeze on their credit reports. You can go on all three of the credit agencies websites and ask for a freeze. The freeze can be removed or paused if needed. I did this for my credit a couple days ago. Unelected kids with no background checks should not have access to our data. 🚨
Every single intelligence agency around the world must be drooling over the prospect of getting inside DOGE. If that were to happen, does anyone believe Musk would tell anyone? That’s a big fat F*CK NO!
Don't care. Happy now maga? They have no clue about how government works. Or science. Or diplomacy. Or nuclear monitoring. Guns! They understand carrying their guns.
Everything is fine here. Nothing to see. Let's get back to her emails. Am I right?? Where is Hunter's laptop anyway?? I hope they started with Susan collins' info.
I know, that's why I wrote you have to change the bank account.
Technically the IRS employee can get any bank account they want, by calling a bank, but the DOGE hacker won't know your new bank account before you file, say in October with an extension. Gives time for the courts to do something.
So this year I won't file electronically. I won't get my return on time, but the way things are going, I may not get a return at all! If they allow paper returns, I'm going old school, with 1099, W2, and money order if I owe money.
TBH we all should slow hackers down as much as possible.
Elon so Trump doesn't have to give up his Tax Records. So its ok to look at everyone elses. Hmm this is all you need to know how Trump is running America. Also your given Elon all that data he already hacked the election. What is going to do with these records.
If they can hack all these systems what’s stopping them from hacking the election? We all know that dt has software and where are democrats? Either way, these domestic terrorist have to go. Remember no one wanted project 25. @raskin.house.gov @aoc.bsky.social

"And he knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. So it was pretty good, pretty good. So thank you to Elon.”
Is it too much to ask for an investigation into this before he destroys the world? I’m sure millions would donate. @sanders.senate.gov @aoc.bsky.social @repdangoldman.bsky.social @wired.com
Every American must assume the information is already leaked. So next time your credit information is breached, remember who had their hands on the information first.
Did not and do not give foreigner, elon musk, any access to my or my fellow Americans personal information. Why are we letting shady immigrant musk access are most personal information. Has ICE verified musk's legal status? If he's looking at our information, I want all of his records! o_O
Can someone in this shit house of a White House provide an intelligent explanation as to why taxpayers info. is relevant to reducing the federal workforce? They cant .
And the destruction of
America and its Institutions plow onward thanks to Trump, Musk, Republicans in Congress and those who voted to put these thieves of our sacred Constitution and Democracy in office.
So NBC this will be a story on your morning shows and the evening news, right ? The public has a right to know this. That is our personal information and accessing it, was illegal.
More Criminal Activity By The FelonTrump Administration... I Hope Everyone Kept Their SS Datasheets You Got In The Mail, Because Musk's Already Been Busted Attempting To Alter Data At Multiple Agencies.
Thankfully Secured System Backups Are Reporting Those Illegal Alterations Each And Every Time It Happens. And The IGs Are Still Getting Those Emails From The Servers, While The Courts Review The Illegal Firings Challenges.
There is a correction to the article. It’s very important to call elected officials and raise hell. There is no need for DOGE to have this info for their work. I’m even going to call the Whitehouse too.
In other words, an authorized US Government employee conducting a review of a US agency has access to taxpayer info. Thousands of authorized US Government employees have access to taxpayer info.
No dingbat, it doesn't work that way. Every government system requires a certain level of access and a need to know. Being a government employee doesn't authorize access to sensitive information. Consider yourself informed now.
Yes, and the President established DOGE and gave them authorization and access. Next time try and reply without insults; ad hominem is the last refuge of the out argued and it doesn't help your credibility.
Do you want some not security cleared little entitled twat with ALL of your info? Your ss# and banking info and your address and your family stats, what you claim and where you work?
That little twat could make bank with that much info.
Absolutely!!! I don't get it....like they are sitting by and letting these clowns just take over. I feel like we've been invaded. And no trump supporter will ever admit things aren't right.
Put a freeze on your credit report. You can go on all three of the credit agencies websites and there's a section to freeze your account. It will help to prevent fraud and bad actors from gaining access and opening accounts in your name.
So Musk has all the Treasury funds and everyone's personal and financial information to play with. Access to all accounts. This can't be good. Where's Batman? I'm serious, where's our Batman?
The Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution protects individuals from unreasonable searches and seizures by the government, requiring warrants to be issued based on probable cause. It is a key part of the Bill of Rights, ensuring privacy and security in personal spaces.
You don't seem to get it. None of that matters anymore. We are now under a dictatorship. Rump has said he is above all our laws and courts. He is in control of all agencies that are supposed to protect us now.
Oh I get it all right. But you have to force the issue to see how the courts react. Then you know how bad it really is. And if you do nothing it's really over.
Musk has gather and saved more information on everyone in the US more than anyone in the government including law enforcement and national security agencies.
Musk is likely copying all taxpayers' sensitive information to sell it and weaponize it against his competitors and anyone who dares to criticize Musk and Trump.
Trump’s handpicked FBI chief is coming for law enforcement. If four Senate Republicans don’t step up, democracy may not survive. They’re voting on Tuesday. This article I wrote breaks down the urgent threat and the last chance to stop it—before it’s too late.

Accessing taxpayers' sensitive information has nothing to do with government efficiency. What are they doing with our information? Call your representatives today and demand they act to end this.
Judge Chutkan expressed skepticism about issuing a wide reaching order, while the plaintiffs struggled to prove *concrete* harm - stemming from DOGE's conduct.
DOGE / Musk full access to *all* & control over US tax records *will* *has* already caused *concrete* harm!!!
Whiner BrendanBuck, a typical Republican welfare queen neglects to mention that the proof's in the pudding: U.S. Department of the Treasury, IRS announced $1.3 billion recovered from high-income, high-wealth individuals under Inflation Reduction Act initiatives |Internal Revenue Service. Sep 6, 2024
The individual who repoted the incident is probably in deep poop for having reported this. It’s not like the new administration to WANT such information to be made public. Especially since the new administration WANTS such information to be sold to the highest bidders.
'Do your fucking jobs and stop this shit already' is falling on primarily deaf ears. I'd love 2 proven wrong, but our reps r compromised, weak & ill-equipped to fight back against this coup.
@democrats.org @democrats-judiciary.house.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov do your job, @mcuban.bsky.social isn’t scared of these psychopaths so why are you? Remember, you work for your constituents not businesses.

I'm not afraid of the IRS employee having the account number, I'm afraid of the neo nazi/ Russian agent who could use it.
AFAIK 1099int forms don't include bank accounts#
TBH we all should slow hackers down as much as possible.
"And he knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. So it was pretty good, pretty good. So thank you to Elon.”
he needs to dox you
and then clean out your bank accounts.
LOCK HIM UP.
$25 trillion added to national debt by Republican tax scam
Where are the cuts and firings at the Pentagon?

ARE YOU WAITING UNTIL HE SHUTS YOU DOWN?
No watchdog here, no oversight,
Just Musk declaring wrong from right.
Conflicts? Nah, don’t stress yourself.
He pinky-promised to police himself.

Luigi was justified.
Free Luigi.
DOGE NEEDS TO NE DISMANTLED NOW!!
“Unelected billionaire now has access to all your sensitive information and can ruin you with the push of a button.” becomes this mess.
