May I make a suggestion.......Someone that was "employed" by Trump/Musk/Doge took your Social Security and all of the

information about "you" with them to a a "private company" your social security number is tied around you until the day you and I die, everything, and I mean everything.
I have called my State Attorney General and asked them to open an investigation into this matter, and to have them pressure information on who, what and see if the State Attorney General(s) of every state will file charges .....................this needs to be front and center

1. Yes! And for your own protection (for those who might not already know) Lock your credit!

You must do so at all three of the Credit Report websites or call them:

To lock (or "freeze" ) your credit, contact each of the three major bureaus�Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion�individually online, by phone, or by mail. This free, legally protected action restricts access to your credit report, preventing new accounts from being opened in your name.

Steps to Freeze Your Credit:
Equifax: 1-888-298-0045 or Equifax website
Experian: 1-888-397-3742 or Experian website
TransUnion: 1-888-909-8872 or TransUnion website

and they offer me up to ten years of protection and such...............but this is not enough in my opinion, it should not have been compromised the first or the last letter/ notice ........they can get your voting record your party registration.............I have my and my wife's credit locked at all three credit agencies..................

They took our information..................someone / all of them need to be charged and brought before a court, state / federal................put pressure on your State Attorney General...............

4. All of the Republican State AGs tried to investigate other state's voting in 2020

But they don't want to find out what happened to the Social Security, banking, medical, and other personal private information of their state's citizens because of DOGE hacking? Everyone should be writing their Congresspersons and State AGs about this and their representatives should bring this up in Congress and also point out every state that IS NOT joining the investigation on behalf of their citizens.

Make this a mid term campaign issue.

we are screwed. Who wants this information and what in the hell are they going to do with it? If responsible for this crime, those teenagers from DOGE need to have the fear of God put into them, fostered by a long prison term.

How is this NOT a Crime?
Anymore, the only heads that roll are good Samaritans, the media, and academics.

They were always questionably unethical, but Trump has led them willingly into Crime.

10. I think the state attorney generals can file charges...... if someone steals your information yes it is a federal crime
Thu Mar 12, 2026, 12:45 AM

but state attorney generals have the power with local partner (prosecutors) if that person uses stolen information to commit a crime.
So in my opinion the person(s) that did this can be charged............
