All Musk has to do is say "we slashed $17B today, it's true because I said so" and his fans will cheer any breach of classified info

We slashed 17B today??


Awesome.

 

[BeardedVol]

Lawfare paid for by taxpayers.

It's $20 million funding the OCCRP over a 5 year period, not $20 million to investigate of Rudy Guliani.

Your reading comprehension is terrible, just like the tweet author's.

Alot of those erroneus payments fo ridiculous studies should be stopped.

But you can't cut it off from there. That's the point

Also unsure what gives doge the access to sensitive data for millions. There are regs around that

 

[ButchPlz]

People that have zero experience working in the federal government (and indeed, only have experience in moving food between tables) bitching about feds being locked out of their office is hilarious.

Was any of that money used to pay or not?
Simple question and answer.

 

[GVF]

But you can't cut it off from there and Musk has no authority. That's the point

I get that. The consultants that would come into out facilties didn't have that direct power either. But, they had very influential findings that got acted upon.

The money was used to fund the OCCRP.

If you get it then how can you say they are allowed to act upon it? They don't control the recipient of money just the outflow. There's also a very absent sec treas just allowing this to happen. Where is he?

We just traded one quasi authoritarian regime for another. We suck.

We just traded one quasi authoritarian regime for another. We suck.

And just handed treasury data over to big tech. But I'm sure they'll be good stewards

Stopped by whom?

 

[gcbvol]

Not sure how anyone could be in favor of what doge is being allowed to do at treasury. Is Bessent actually doing anything or does an unelected, big tech billionaire just get access to all the sensitive data he wants?

Still don't believe it's legal for doge to be allowed to stop payment on congressional approved money

We should all be screaming about this. Zero issue whatsoever with Trump reviewing/cutting spending; but a private citizen whose primary interests are his businesses and wealth running roughshod through the federal government? He and his team are accessing the personal data of American citizens, along with sensitive/restricted data without clearance. It's insane.

Imagine Biden carrying out the same exercise with Cuban or Soros doing the same stuff. We need to wake up.

 

[jwells]

That doesn’t require dei it’s already a law just like other forms of discrimination. Dei is meritless based hiring practices that is actually discrimination. And don’t forget the tampons in the men’s bathroom.

Those other laws are forms of DEI.

DEI isn't a "meritless hiring practice" and has never been. That's a bogeyman fantasy created by the same folks that brought you faux outrage over CRT and schools indoctrinating kids with Islam.

And who cares where tampons are? Don't need one? Don't use one.

 

[jwells]

Duplicate.

The clearance is a huge issue, POTUS can grant a security clearance to anyone but there is zero record (I can find) of him doing so.

 

[jwells]

Wrong buddy!
The media ensured the great citizens of this country that during President Biden’s time in office he was sharp as a tack and with age, wisdom followed. Currently, the Orangeman is proving that he still has what it takes. Now please go back to the kids table and enjoy your chocolate milk while the adults sip on scotch. Papaw will give up his keys to the Cadillac when he is ready.

Wow. So mature.
I don't care what the media said about Biden. I certainly don't think Trump "has what it takes" unless tanking the stock market, damaging foreign relations, and raising prices for Americans is "what it takes". I think you've had too much to drink...but it ain't scotch; it's Kool-Aid.

 

[jwells]

The fact that you equate Biden's and Trump's mental acuity is clear demonstration that your own perceptive powers are suspect and confirms your partisan hackery. Couple that with your defense of DEI in ANY form just solidifies your position as leader of the forum court jester.

Soldier on. We enjoy the laughs

Sure. Real stable genius starting random trade wars. He's doing so well, he with his dementia lean.

Old boomers should not be president. Period. I really don't care how the echo chamber takes this. It's cool if the local fluffers don't like me.

 

[jwells]

very nice...wonder what they will find...

Hopefully an indictment for illegally accessing information without proper clearance.

 

[InVOLuntary]

I doubt Elon Musk is down there plowing through data. These are other government employees, most likely with security clearances that are doing the analysis.

 

[GVF]

Stopped by whom?

The individual(s) that have the authority to act on the recommendations of the consultants? Why would you infer I said something I clearly did not say. Unless you are of an affiliation that just naturally does that.

Maybe that's the case but I haven't found anything to support that.

The post of mine you quoted was about Musk cutting the funding. It wasn't about the political validity of the money itself. Thats the job of Congress

Are they?

There's nothing to support any side here. The fact is the bureaucrats are fighting tooth and nail to keep this information covered up. That tells me all I need to know.
