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.
We just pardoned a corporation.
Correct. For criminal acts. As Mitt Romney said, “Corporations are people, my friend.” (Yes, I know corporate personhood makes no sense, but this is the messed up world we live in.)
I understand that. And as you noted we’re well past the point of law and making sense. 2 plus 2 is now fish because the Supreme Court said so.
I hope we have some legal sense remaining to where what you’re saying makes sense. It would be a small confirmation law is still a thing.
We’re not past the point of law, there’s just an executive-in-chief who thinks he is. Law still applies to everyone else.
Wait what? I think I missed that.

Holy shit! He’s basically given them a license for unlimited money laundering with no repercussions! 🤬
As for The Hill, it’s generally skewed to the Right (though not as far right as the fascist GOP) on anything subjective, but usually pretty reliable otherwise.
