The U.S. Supreme Court's recent ruling has ignited outrage among advocates for Social Security as it permits the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), an agency backed by the Trump administration and prominent figures like Elon Musk, to access sensitive Social Security data. This decision, an emergency order responding to a lawsuit from two labor unions, overrules a previous federal court ruling that required DOGE to delete accessed data. Critics argue that granting DOGE unfettered access poses serious risks to individuals' private information and democracy itself, amplifying fears of potential data misuse.
The Supreme Court decision allowing DOGE full, unfettered access to the public's sensitive personal Social Security data is a loss for all of us. No one in history - no commissioner, no president, no one - has ever had the access that these DOGE minions have.
This is a sad day for our democracy and a scary day for millions of people. This ruling will enable President Trump and DOGE's affiliates to steal Americans' private and personal data.
