Trump Official Threatens To Shutdown Social Security Over DOGE Ruling
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter


Judge Ellen Lipton Hollander issued a temporary restraining order barring Elon Musk’s DOGE Boys from gaining access to personally identifiable information from the Social Security Administration. But now Donald’s interim Social Security chief says he wants to shut down the program that is an essential safety net program for seniors and people with disabilities if the bratty, narcissistic billionaire and DOGE can’t access Americans’ most sensitive data.

Rolling Stone reports:

“My anti-fraud team would be DOGE affiliates. My IT staff would be DOGE affiliates,” said Lee Dudek, acting Social Security Administration (SSA) commissioner, arguing the order was too broad, according to Bloomberg News. “As it stands, I will follow it exactly and terminate access by all SSA employees to our IT systems,” he said, adding: “Really, I want to turn it off and let the courts figure out how they want to run a federal agency.”

Dudek’s threat to block SSA employees from using the agency’s IT systems — a move that could halt Social Security payments — came in response to a judge’s temporary restraining order in a case brought by the AFL-CIO labor union. The order bars Social Security Administration officials from allowing DOGE, including Musk, and the SSA’s DOGE team to access personally identifiable information. It also directs Musk and DOGE to delete from their possession all non-anonymized personal data, and bars them from having access to SSA computers or code.

Judge Ellen Lipton Hollander wrote that the SSA had likely violated administrative and privacy laws when it gave DOGE “unbridled access to the personal and private data of millions of Americans, including but not limited to Social Security numbers, medical records, mental health records, hospitalization records, drivers’ license numbers, bank and credit card information, tax information, income history, work history, birth and marriage certificates, and home and work addresses.”

She added that the “defendants, with so-called experts on the DOGE Team, never identified or articulated even a single reason for which the DOGE Team needs unlimited access to SSA’s entire record systems, thereby exposing personal, confidential, sensitive, and private information that millions of Americans entrusted to their government.”

Sure, try it, Dudek. He’ll have millions of seniors coming at him with their canes. I’m a senior, and this shit pisses me off. Here’s an idea: Donald’s administration should return all the money we’ve paid to Social Security for our entire working lives. Quit fucking with us, Elon.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are closing Social Security offices in Texas. They’re cutting phone services.

Now they might force the whole agency to shut down. This is a full-blown attack.https://t.co/oXkJh9dsW2
