Summary
Elon Musk’s DOGE website mistakenly published classified intelligence data, including personnel and budget details for the National Reconnaissance Office.
The breach sent Defense Department officials scrambling, as the NRO’s headcount and budget are typically classified. Intelligence aides confirmed the leak is problematic under current security standards.
Concerns have also been raised about DOGE’s inexperienced staff. The White House has not commented, and the site was later hacked.
Well you see, legally, it’s complicated.
The only people who can go after him…work for Trump.
The people who can go after Trump are Congress. A Congress that is controlled by the party that Trump is the head of, and that head is attached directly to its ass, with absolutely no spine in between. A truly majestic creature, really.
The people who can stop him on the meantime are the courts. Which he packed with loyalists. Not just the supreme court but also many lower federal courts as well.
That’s thanks to the duodenum of the congress-beast, Mitch McConnel, who held up so many federal judge appointments during Obama’s last years in office because it was “too close to an election”. But then shoved in a new judge when RBG died two months before the 2020 election before she was even cold.
This is what most sane countries would call a “constitutional crisis”.
