US Treasury Warns DOGE Staff as 'Insider Threat' Amid Access Concerns

Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has raised significant concerns within the U.S. Treasury Department due to its access to sensitive payment systems. A confidential assessment warned that DOGE's access poses an unprecedented insider threat risk, prompting recommendations to suspend their access immediately and conduct a thorough review. The report indicated that DOGE members, including Marko Elez, had the ability to read and rewrite code within critical systems handling over $5 trillion in transactions annually. Despite denials from Treasury and White House officials, reports emerged of unauthorized changes made by DOGE staff, reinforcing the urgency of monitoring their activities. The situation has sparked ongoing litigation and protests, further complicating DOGE's role within the Treasury. As these developments unfold, the fate of DOGE staffers remains uncertain amidst calls for reinstatement of those who left following internal controversies.
