Two members of Elon Musk’s DOGE team working at the Social Security Administration were secretly in touch with an advocacy group seeking to “overturn election results in certain states,” and one signed an agreement that may have involved using Social Security data to match state voter rolls, the Justice Department revealed in newly disclosed court papers, Politico reports.

6. Every single one of us knew

as soon as DOGE touched the SS databases that they'd be misused in every way possible. The fact they wanted to use them to compare voter rolls to overturn election results is a no brainer. Musk paid for this damned presidency, and damn it! he's gonna get what he paid for! /snark

Shitler won in '24.
