A senior executive at the Social Security Administration was physically dragged from his office this week after clashing with DOGE, according to The Washington Post.
Greg Pearre, a career civil servant who led an IT team working on the agency’s data systems, was removed over his opposition to a DOGE plan to cut off immigrants from key financial services, three people told the Post.
The scheme cooked up by Elon Musk’s DOGE squad falsely lists thousands of migrants as dead in a Social Security database known as the “death master file.”
Being entered into the death database cuts a person off from crucial financial services, like the ability to receive government benefits and access a bank account or credit card.
Eventually someone is going to shoot some DOGE agents dead and I won’t be mad.
Not guilty
It should have happened at the beginning, when they first showed up, and started making demands in the lobby. They were an unauthorized force of illegal pirates, trying to access classified systems. They should have been gunned down the moment they tried to force their way past the front desk.
Then they “authorized” their existence, and now they have authority to go anywhere they want.
What are they like vampires being invited in?
DOGE is a terrorist group, don’t fall for the agent narrative/propaganda.
Will it happen, though? Trump staged a coup 4 years ago and no one did a thing about it. DOGE has been fucking around for months now and no one has done a thing. No one in the USA is going to do a thing about anything, post a meme on Lemmy maybe? They’re paralysed and unable to take action. They’ll never react.
I think it’s fair to say that not enough was done about the coup attempt, but there were hundreds of cases successfully prosecuted. That’s not ‘nothing’.
Trump was never prosecuted, was allowed to run again and is president again after his coup. Nothing was done. It’s going to get much worse because NOTHING WAS DONE.
The distinction they are making is that it wasn’t nothing, it just wasn’t nearly enough. Woefully so. However, some people tried, but the assholes were already installed to stall and block the attempts. There were legal processes being followed, but the right was not faithfully doing their jobs. This was because they were specifically installed in those positions to not do the right thing.
Didn’t Luigi have a brother???
