DOGE Goons Dump Millions Of Social Security Numbers Online​

A Social Security whistleblower says hundreds of millions of Americans are at risk after their personal data was recklessly uploaded to a vulnerable cloud server, which one of the most notorious DOGE operatives, “Big Balls,” could access.

Charles Borges, the Social Security Administration’s chief data officer, said DOGE members uploaded a database containing records of all Social Security numbers issued by the federal government, full names, addresses, birth dates and other details that could be used to steal their identities, according to the complaint obtained by the New York Times.

The move “potentially violated multiple federal statutes” protecting sensitive government data, Borges wrote, and could result in a “catastrophic impact” for Social Security beneficiaries and programs if compromised.

Of course.

Projection. What they have done, or wish they could do, they accuse their enemies of.

Why would the DOGE team do it? The motivation isn't there.

The motivation IS there, for the former client-recipients of USAID, and their mouthpieces, to smear the people cleaning it up.

In the data world, hackers tend to break along White Hats - who test secure systems, either for pay or as a challenge, and to inform site managers of weakness; and Black Hats, the data thieves and vandals who are driven by the same force as are arsonists and window-breakers.

The two are innately different - one group, looking to boost self-esteem, the other, sociopathic wreckers. They are not interchangeable and aren't likely to quickly change, one to the other. Both are driven by deep forces, one or both groups, by psychological disturbances.

But we know what MSLSD is driven by. They want Revolution; they want us to PAY for our enslavement with their printed-up rentier cash, and they lie for the sheer joy of deceiving those they despise.
 
Who cares? It's the government's 'number system' not mine...

Trump administration rehires hundreds of federal employees laid off by DOGE​


Hundreds of federal employees who lost their jobs in Elon Musk’s cost-cutting blitz are being asked to return to work.

The General Services Administration has given the employees — who managed government workspaces — until the end of the week to accept or decline reinstatement, according to an internal memo obtained by The Associated Press.

Those who accept must report for duty on October 6 after what amounts to a seven-month paid vacation, during which time the GSA in some cases racked up high costs — passed along to taxpayers — to stay in dozens of properties whose leases it had slated for termination or were allowed to expire.

Fake nooze.

Know how to tell when the meⒹia are lying?

Watch their mouths. If their lips move, they lie.

Lying is what they do; what they're hired to do.
 

Report: 201,000 Federal Employees Let Go Since January—A Good Start​

Libertarians and many conservatives have long argued that the federal government is too large, too intrusive, and often operates beyond its constitutional limits. They also agree that for liberty to expand, government must contract—dramatically. One way to help do that is to reduce the federal workforce.

The Trump administration pledged to take that step this year, and a recent report shows that an estimated 201,000 executive branch employees had left the federal workforce as of September 23. That’s about 8.7 percent of the current 2.3 million civilian employees—a measurable shift and a good start.

Elon Musk's DOGE Uncovered the Biggest Health Care Heist in American History | Victoria Taft, PJ Media

What if I told you that cartels and other bad actors from around the world conspired to undermine the integrity of the health care system in the U.S. and came way too close to succeeding? If you didn’t hear about the bust of 324 people; the U.S.-based cartel shell medical supply companies; the pill mills pushing opioids; the doctors on the take; or how law enforcement captured many of the bad guys at the U.S. border and airports as they rushed to escape, that’s understandable. The feds revealed this potential $14.6 billion "depth charge" planted inside the Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance programs in June, while most people were away on summer vacation.

Why did transnational organizations go after these particular programs? "Criminals go where the money is," Acting Health and Human Services Inspector General,Juliet Hodgkins said at a news conference about "the largest health care fraud takedown in American history." There's more than $1.4 trillion spent by these government programs per year, and the bad guys have tried, by hook or by crook, and even with the aid of AI, to set into motion plans to steal nearly $15 billion. They got away with just shy of $3 billion before they were caught, and their other frauds were frozen in their tracks.

If this bust looks to you like it had Elon Musk's old Department of Government Efficiency fingerprints on it, you'd be right. Using AI and law enforcement tactics, the DOGE team worked with HHS, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid, and an all-hands-on-deck array of federal agents from the DEA, FBI, and health care agencies to track down all fraud leads, according to Dr. Mehmet Oz, head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). As a result, the feds are setting up a healthcare data fusion center to detect where fraud spikes are occurring in near real time.

"DOGE is involved," Oz told reporters in June. "The president has been very clear that he wants this fraud, waste and abuse crushed. That's the word that's used." He continued, "DOGE is not just about cutting waste and fraud within government. [It] has been actively involved at CMS in helping us address places where fraud is existing that we never thought to look."

Oz said these bad guys were sophisticated and used state-of-the-art methods to rip the government programs blind.

[T]hat's how we're being attacked now, and it's not done by small-time operators, as you're hearing about and you will read about. These are organized syndicates who are designing to hurt America. And why do they hurt our health care system? Well, CMS is probably the largest target of all, responsible for about $1.7 trillion dollars of disbursements. So, it's a big target on our side. And they can pierce the veil of protection by just getting identifier numbers from our seniors or Medicaid recipients or others.

According to the DOJ, overseas cartel thieves set up a sophisticated network of medical supply companies that "submitted more than $10 billion in fraudulent healthcare claims to Medicare." The bad guys used stolen identities of at least one million Americans found in data breaches and sold on the dark web to make the reimbursement requests. It's unclear if the thieves used the unique Medicare and Medicaid identifying numbers to steal the money.

Other scams used a network of Phoenix-based sober living houses to demand government payments for people who never got addiction treatment at the facilities. The facilities, run by ProMD, received $560 million before the feds caught on to the scam.

In Atlanta, medical professionals ordered skin grafts for dying patients who didn't need them. By the time the grift was discovered, they'd scammed Medicare out of $760 million.

People from as far away as Estonia have been arrested. Seven people were found trying to scuttle over the southern U.S. border but were stopped before they got away. Another bunch were caught trying to leave the country from U.S. airports.

The bad actors from Russia, Pakistan, and Eastern Europe used the American health care system like their "personal piggy bank," the Department of Justice's Acting Criminal Division leader, Matthew Galeotti, said. He said that "this was a staggering breach of trust" and they "will prosecute these criminals as aggressively as we would any drug dealer because that's exactly what they are."

Musk, who stepped away from the White House after a rift with President Donald Trump, is the one who conceived and executed the DOGE project, and he’s a damned American hero. Let's give that guy a medal for saving American taxpayers yet another tranche of billions.

DOGE:

Antonio Gracias: “We found that there were about 5 million of them who came into the country illegally and got through an automatic system with Social Security numbers. We tracked that and found that they were on benefit programs. We then looked to see if they were on the voter rolls, and in a handful of cooperative states, we found thousands of them. Many of them had voted.”

This is similar to the 2020 election: as the world watched the Democrats overthrowing the U.S. government, they were told it was the most secure election in history.
 

Update

Teens charged in attack of former DOGE staffer sentenced to probation​

Two teens arrested in connection with the attempted carjacking of a former U.S. DOGE Service staffer in August — an attack that captured the attention of President Donald Trump and in part ignited his sweeping crime crackdown on the nation’s capital — were sentenced Tuesday to probation, avoiding incarceration.

A 15-year-old boy was sentenced to a year’s probation after he pleaded guilty last month to four counts split between two incidents that took place one night in early August: attempted robbery and simple assault on Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old software engineer who began work in the federal government as a protégé of Elon Musk; and felony assault and robbery at a nearby gas station moments before.
