Some people call it racism

has direct access to Treasury Department systems responsible for nearly all payments made by the US government


This is a common refrain. They're really worried about the payments at Treasury.

Couldn't give a rip about the fraud/waste/abuse that's been authorized. Just concerned about who has what has been confirmed as "Read Only" access to the history.

They are gathering and reporting data.

That's it.


They aren't making any decisions.

Sounds like half of this board

I guess no H1B Bros allowed on DOGE.

Edit: some more from the article:

quote:

The user appeared to have a special dislike for Indian software engineers. “99% of Indian H1Bs will be replaced by slightly smarter LLMs, they’re going back don’t worry guys,” the user posted in December.

“Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool,” @nullllptr posted in July.






quote:

June, the user weighed in on the conflict in the Middle East, offering some sympathy for Israel but also posting, “I would not mind at all if Gaza and Israel were both wiped off the face of the Earth.”


We should invite him to TD.


What I want to know is who was archiving his deleted X account? A rogue X employee? A 3 letter agency?

DOGE Staffer Resigns Over Racist Posts
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

“You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity”

“Normalize Indian hate”

“eugenic immigration policy”

“Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool”
Those posts outside of ANY context say absolutely nothing. Not one damn thing. There are 8-ways-to-Sunday to mischaracterize posts like that.

However, if they accurately represent where the dude is coming from ....
then good riddance!

He's entitled to his opinion, but not the role.

Now, we should also know who possessed and released posts recorded from an account scrubbed pre-December 2024 .......

He had to, to mitigate damage to DOGE.

Obviously.

Racist is a bad look.

Outside of context? What exactly are these ways of mischaracterizing for this set of tweets all from one person LOL being “entitled” to hateful opinions is an insane take
