That's straight up traitorous.
DOGE needs to be shutdown and everyone of them held as a flight risk while the whole thing is investigated.

Not to defend doge at be all, but the article specifically mentioned installing a bunch of proxy and scraping tools. Is this likely to be an actual Russian state attack or just extremely poor opsec / an attempt to evade internal controls, still likely very illegal. I'm all for holding all involved accountable to the fullest extent, but this is too sloppy for Russian state involvement to make me think they're on any intelligence payroll anywhere.
They work for Trump so they'll never be held to account, even if a Democrat wins the next election (assuming even have one and it's fair and free)
I never thought I'd be calling for UN observers for an election in the US but here we are

Why? If Democrats take the House in the midterms, which looks more likely the longer Navarro and Musk have West Wing access, they can basically turn these folks' lives into a living hell of back-to-back hearings (and contempt charges down the road). And if Democrats win the next election, they'll presumably put someone with a pulse in charge who doesn't take two years to bring the most important cases of their administration to the docket.
I think Trump could simply pardon them, unfortunately.

When Biden was elected they didn't seriously crack down on them before outside of the one case at Justice that went nowhere.
They also didn't prosecute GWB/Cheney/Rumsfeld for war crimes when they had the chance. This is a long standing policy of theirs.
