Wired reports on those 10 DOGE operatives embedded at Social Security. There’s nothing reassuring about the report.
People whose educational backgrounds have been in STEM are essential to the economy but, in general, they have no business in management. Their backgrounds are just too limited. Sure, there are exceptions but previous few when you’re talking about people as young as those assigned to Social Security.

Was there a recent background check on Elon and the DOGE operatives?
That's a good question! Won't surprise me if that wasn't done!
They claim there was but I doubt the veracity
Oh awesome. SSA got the “normalize asian hate” neanderthal.
Indeed, the "racist before it was cool" bro is at SSA.
When a participant in the meeting asked him why he wouldn’t more forcefully call out President Donald Trump’s continued false claims about widespread Social Security fraud as “BS,” Dudek answered, “So we published, for the record, what was actually the numbers there on our website. This is dealing with — have you ever worked with someone who’s manic-depressive?”
This is another example of the press not doing their jobs. Are we taking the word of this corrupt administration? Why only eight background checks on DOGE operatives if true?
According to the AP..
They have received privacy training, and eight had passed background checks as of Wednesday, government lawyers said in court documents.
According to ProPublica, several IT contracts have been cut or scaled back, and several employees reported that their tech systems are crashing every day. Thousands of jobs are being cut, including in regional field offices, and the entire Social Security staff has been offered buyouts.
Tried to log in today on Saturday to prep for next week's hearings and the network is down. The new normal under Trump, DOGE, Dudek and Ortis.
Great. A month after invading, most of them have had background checks (assuming they aren't lying - again) and most have have some unknown security training that may or may not be adequate. I feel much better. And I am underwhelmed by the transparency - another lie/broken promise.
