Why do we care that Politicians personal data might be compromised during a DOGE audit?

I mean our information is available to the IRS and I am sure any Department of Justice branch would have no problem pulling my data if they needed too. I am so over this Democrat smoke screen about this being unconstitutional and financial records being exposed. Let's see what this Swamp rats are hiding? Trace the money and then expose the truth

They’ll shout about, “if they can do it to us then they can do it to you!”

Problem is, they already can do it to us and we WANT it to happen to politicians.

Well that and they’re all dirty as a bum’s nutsack.

I do care because despite my extreme dislike for politicians in general they are afforded a certain amount of privacy.

If there are things in their financial records indicating foul play it needs to be pursued. Given that’s probably all of them I’m perfectly fine with having their hides tacked on the wall AFTER proven guilty.

I really dislike this guilty by inference that has been the norm no matter who it is.

There have been numerous instances where liberal bureacrats have abused the priviledged and private information of conservatives. I do not recall any dems being upset about this. Quite the opposite. So, I say frick em when they voice concern about politiacl appointees.

Better yet...

"Trump's a thief because he won't show us his tax returns" and now "don't look at our data, it's private".

Democrats don't have a message anymore. I don't think they will find one again.

So the next time a Democrat is in the white House, you will be ok with whatever billionaire wants access to all this data because "who cares"? Sorry, I don't want either party just giving out all Americans data to whatever billionaire donated the most money.

Do they not realize their financial data is already exposed by background checks of them?

quote:

Yes, a person's financial records, particularly their credit history, can be included in a background check, which may reveal details like credit card debt, loans, bankruptcies, and payment history, depending on the type of check and the employer's requirements; this is often referred to as a "credit check" and is used to assess an individual's financial responsibility.

I watched the ground crew at an airport in Dominican Republic the other day, and there was an officer who patted down the guys who went in the baggage space in the bottom of the plane before they climbed in to stack baggage. Trust but verify. As is, anybody wanting to perform jobs wherein possible hidden crimes can be easily committed should consent to verification up front, or find another job that don’t. Politicians as “public servants “ at the fore.

I intend to give those pompous, pretentious, condescending, arrogant, smug, a-holes in both parties the same amount of acceptance, tolerance, inclusion and compassion as they have shown us. NONE. They treat our side guilty until we are proven innocent, then they accuse us of being guilty. They will the same from me. Shove the stick in, turn it 90 degrees and then rip colon and sphincter right out.

There is a difference. You sign a release for background checks. If you didn't like it when groups did it to Trump, why would you be OK with it possibly being done wholesale?

They have access to your data at the dmv.

Those aren’t elected officials looking at your info on the computer screen.

The NSA and several agencies already have access to every individual’s personal data …. all of it.

The feds are just “selective” on who they choose to pursue.

Audit the federal government … all of it.

Once again you seem to be on the wrong side of every issue. If you could look over the few saplings in front of you you would see a huge redwood Forrest. Ask yourself this, how does a politician become a multi millionaire with generational wealth in a few short years on $175k a year?

Did you care a billionaire was censoring info at the directive of a Democrat doj?

Did you care a billionaire put his own ballot drop boxes all over the country?


Did you care a foreign born billionaire got das elected all over the country?


Did you care when a billionaire got paid to run campaign for the democrats?



If one side had all the billionaires, they would never lose.

If you’re a government employee, you should not expect a right to privacy.
