A 25-year-old engineer named Marko Elez, who previously worked for two Elon Musk companies, has direct access to Treasury Department systems responsible for nearly all payments made by the US government, three sources tell WIRED.

 

Two of those sources say that Elez’s privileges include the ability not just to read but to write code on two of the most sensitive systems in the US government: the Payment Automation Manager and Secure Payment System at the Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS). Housed on a secure mainframe, these systems control, on a granular level, government payments that in their totality amount to more than a fifth of the US economy.

 

Despite reporting that suggests that Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) task force has access to these Treasury systems on a “read-only” level, sources say Elez, who has visited a Kansas City office housing BFS systems, has many administrator-level privileges. Typically, those admin privileges could give someone the power to log in to servers through secure shell access, navigate the entire file system, change user permissions, and delete or modify critical files. That could allow someone to bypass the security measures of, and potentially cause irreversible changes to, the very systems they have access to.

Well, don't have to worry about him anymore.

Staffer at Musk’s DOGE resigns after racist social media posts exposed

A staff member on the Department of Government Efficiency team led by tech billionaire Elon Musk resigned Thursday after The Wall Street Journal asked the White House about his connection to a social media account that advocated for racism and eugenics.

The DOGE staffer, Marko Elez, earlier Thursday had been approved by a federal judge along with another DOGE staff member to have access to the payment system at the U.S. Treasury, but restricted his ability to share data from the system.

The Journal said it had established links between 25-year-old Elez and a social media account on Musk’s platform X that was deleted in December.

“The deleted @nullllptr account previously went by the username @marko_elez, a review of archived posts shows,” the Journal reported. “The user behind the @nullllptr also described themselves as an employee at SpaceX and Starlink, where Elez has worked, according to archives of Elez’s personal website.”

Musk is playing a major role in efforts by President Donald Trump to slash federal government spending and employee headcount. Elez had been designated as a special government employee.

“You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity,” @nullllptr tweeted on X in September, the Journal reported.

“Normalize Indian hate,” the account wrote the same month, in reference to a post noting the prevalence of people from India in Silicon Valley,” according to the Journal.

In an interview with the Bloomberg news service published Thursday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he had personally vetted one of the two Treasury employees from Musk’s DOGE team.

“These are highly trained professionals,” Bessent told Bloomberg. “This is not some roving band running around doing things.”

“This is methodical and it is going to yield big savings,” the Treasury chief said.

 

Only the best.

Under the United States Constitution and the principles of separation of powers, the President does not have unilateral authority to dismantle or cut funding to USAID (the U.S. Agency for International Development). Here are the key reasons:

1. Congressional Power of the Purse:

The U.S. Constitution grants Congress the exclusive authority to appropriate federal funds. This means that decisions about the budget and funding for federal agencies like USAID must be made by Congress through the appropriations process. The President can propose a budget or suggest changes, but only Congress can authorize and allocate the money.

2. Separation of Powers:

The U.S. government is divided into three branches: the legislative, the executive, and the judicial. This system is designed to prevent any one branch from accumulating too much power. While the President heads the executive branch and can influence policy and administration, he cannot unilaterally change the structure or funding of federal agencies because that power resides with the legislative branch (Congress).

3. Agency Independence and Statutory Authority:

USAID was established by law and its mission and structure are defined by statutes. Any significant changes to its mandate, organization, or funding levels would require legislative action to amend these laws. The President cannot unilaterally alter these statutory provisions.

4. Checks and Balances:

The system of checks and balances ensures that any attempt by the executive branch to make sweeping changes without congressional approval can be challenged in court. If the President were to try to dismantle or cut funding to USAID without going through the proper legislative channels, such actions would likely face legal challenges and could be reversed by the courts.

 

In summary, while the President can influence policy and suggest changes, the power to dismantle or defund a federal agency like USAID lies with Congress, as part of the constitutional checks and balances designed to prevent any branch of government from acting unilaterally on issues of national funding and organizational structure.

The Department of Agriculture is spending $361,000 teaching "queer," "trans," "pansexual," "non-binary," and "two-spirit" people how to farm. Seems like they're building some sort of LGBTQ+ plantation.

Yes, the answers are there if you actually have any brain activity left. Maybe try reading and re-reading 1&3 until it sinks in. Any changes have to go through Congress.

I don't know if Chelsea got any money or not, but if snopes thinks she didn't get funneled money because USAID didn't write a check for 84 million with "for fraud" in the memo line that she reported on her taxes, they're retarded.  

This is the Clintons.  They'd set up some foundation to funnel the money through and then have some corporation that they have some obfuscated affiliation essentially launder the money so they can claim it's legal.  And if all that came to light, snopes and the lefties here would still find a way to say it was all kosher.
