5 takeaways about NPR's reporting on the whistleblower report about DOGE at the NLRB
Briefly

A whistleblower has raised alarming concerns about the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk, attempting to access the National Labor Relations Board's (NLRB) sensitive data systems. The agency investigates unfair labor practices, and the potential breach or misuse of its databases has sparked worry among IT employees. Although the NLRB claims there was no unauthorized access, the whistleblower's testimony suggests otherwise, indicating a larger issue of security breaches across federal data management and rising anxiety about the safeguarding of sensitive information within agency operations.
The whistleblower, Daniel Berulis, expressed concerns over the Department of Government Efficiency's intentions, stating, "I can't attest to what their end goal was or what they're doing with the data... this is a very bad picture we're looking at."
Despite the NLRB's allegations, the whistleblower's disclosures have raised alarms regarding the DOGE's access and data activities across the federal government, with NPR noting significant concerns.
