Seems like Doge might have been setup to facilitate this. They are cross referencing data from the HHS database. Big Brother.
The actual point of DOGE was to just backdoor and/or datadump as many government databases as possible and give them to Palantir. That’s it. That was the entire point. Everything else was simply theatrics.
And to just stoke Elon's ego in letting him have his own fake agency and show people that they can fuck with the economy and suffer jo consequences whatsoever.
Also firing all the agencies and agents investigating him.
The OMB was really behind the firings, and Russell Vought is still there and still in charge.
And he’s a Christo-fascist from childhood.
