Trump judges give Doge hackers access to private info of every american in existence
A panel of federal appeals court judges ruled Tuesday that teams with the so-called Department of Government Efficiency may access the personal data of millions of U.S. residents held by the Office of Personnel Management and the Departments of Education and the Treasury.
The 2-1 ruling by Republican-appointed judges on the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals comes over the objections of labor unions, which sued to block DOGE’s access to the databases, citing federal privacy laws. DOGE will now have additional information on addresses, employer details and other statistics on tens of millions of people, as well as student debt for more than 40 million borrowers.
