We had the USDS to help revamp government websites and have them work seamlessly with other agencies and organizations. You know who took over that? Fucking DOGE… it’s why doge has so much access to all the federal agencies and is slated to give all the IRS/SSA data over to Palantir in September
That’s not why Doge has access to all that agencies. They just took a small department they didn’t care about and sort of had to do with efficiency, fired everyone and replaced them with Elon Musk and a bunch of his lackeys and heritage foundation interns. Trump gave executive orders firing and replacing everyone who protested at their illegal data access with sycophants. And when judges went “uh that’s illegal” the Supreme Court swatted them down with a mixture of totally unexplained decisions and a few batshit kangaroo court logic ones, usually backing the idea of unitary executive which to save you some time means that they think the President is King over the executive branch (and since the executive branch does basically everything is King over us all).
The original departments access is meaningless. It’s just totalitarianism and lawlessness with a gold star approval from the Supreme Court and the Republicans in control of Congress.

Fuck Joe Gebbia and his AirBnB billions.
I’m just one person, but I’m done with AirBnB until this doofus is off their board.
