New Revelations Raise More Questions About DoGE's Handling of Sensitive Social Security Data
A recent court filing has shed new light on the handling of sensitive information by members of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) team, who were tasked with ransacking data from the US federal government. While initially denied any wrongdoing, the latest document now admits that one unidentified DOGE member accessed Social Security data just days before a court ordered them to stop.
In March 2025, the US Department of Justice claimed that all SSA DOGE Team members had been stripped of access to sensitive information, but this claim has since been disavowed. According to the new filing, one DOGE member continued to search for personally identifiable information (PII) on March 24, 2025, just as the court order was in place.
Furthermore, the filing reveals that several DOGE members had unauthorized access to sensitive systems, including call center information and personnel records. This contradicts earlier claims by the Department of Justice that no SSA DOGE Team member had ever accessed these systems.
Moreover, a shadowy political advocacy group appears to have made contact with at least one DOGE team member in an attempt to analyze state voter rolls. The group claimed it was searching for evidence of voter fraud and aimed to overturn election results in certain states. This connection raises questions about potential misuse of sensitive information.
The implications of this latest court filing are far-reaching, with many calling for accountability from those responsible. However, the fact that Elon Musk remains unscathed despite DOGE's gross mishandling of private information is a concerning trend, particularly given his long history of controversies and questionable business practices.
