"summary",
"The controversy began when Judge Ellen Lipton Hollander issued a temporary restraining order preventing DOGE Boys from accessing personally identifiable information from the Social Security Administration. Leland Dudek, the acting commissioner, threatened to shut down the agency in response, but later clarified that the agency would continue to operate as usual. The judge's decision was seen as a victory for privacy advocates, who had raised concerns about the DOGE Boys' motives."

As we already discussed here, Trump's interim head of the Social Security Administration threatened to shut down the entire program after Judge Ellen Lipton Hollander issued a temporary restraining order barring Elon Musk's DOGE Boys from gaining access to personally identifiable information from SSA. Leland Dudek is now backing down from his threat, but we all know this won't be the end of it. The sabotage will continue despite this backtrack: Acting Social Security Commissioner Leland Dudek is backing down on a threat to cease operations at the agency after a federal judge blocked staffers at Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency from accessing sensitive data housed at the agency. [...] Hollander said DOGE was engaged in a “fishing expedition” for fraud based on “little more than suspicion” and said the temporary organization “never identified or articulated even a single reason for which the DOGE Team needs unlimited access to SSA’s entire record systems.”read more\nhttps://crooksandliars.com/2025/03/acting-ssa-commissioner-backs-down-closure",
