Musk trying to access to US Treasury

So how bad could this get if they get control?

For example, let's say someone liberal criticizes Trump. Could they then use the UST to block and freeze your bank account accusing you of subversion or something?

There are more scams and skims than either you or I can think of. They should not have access. Full stop. The risk is too high. Our country is at stake.

Monkeying around with the USG payments system has the potential to make the whole thing vulnerable.

Already from the OPM email to all
Feds, spam is pouring into email accounts. Sex, scams, the works.

More. It’s bad.
And Congress and the media are silent.

The arcane process of cutting the government’s checks is normally overlooked by political leadership, though the incoming administration exhibited an odd interest in its inner workings, sources said — raising suspicions among career officials about the intent to tinker with a crucial financial pipeline that keeps the nation’s economy running

Here’s my prediction:

OPM sends out mass firing emails without any basis in law and without conformance to existing RIF and other protocols. They then use the Treasury payments system and stop direct deposits.

It’s going to be f#cking chaos. The courts will be swamped with lawsuits.

We are effectively witnessing the absolute neutering of the legislative branch of the government. Laws passed by Congress are now meaningless. It’s pure nihilism.

They’ll also use control of the Treasury to stop federal transfer payments to California and other blue states. They will demand the resignation of Newsom and hold federal funds hostage over it.

You mean we are effectively witnessing the absolute neutering of the executive branch of the government.

Most departments and agencies are in the executive branch.

I want to call my congresspeople, but I am truly afraid that my name will be passed along. I have republican senators and don’t trust them to do the right thing.

Executive branch doesn’t get to override laws and regulations Willy nilly. Much of what is happening is absolutely illegal.

Oh? You mean like ignoring immigration law?

Like removing the “entire investigative team” of the IRS from its long-running tax fraud probe of first son Hunter Biden?

I could go on, but suffice it to say you have a very selective memory.

Then you are WILLINGLY giving up your rights to FAIR representation and free speech. Not to mention all the other rights that will be lost.

Given how poorly they handled the OPM letter, this is opening the door for data breaches of bank accounts, social security numbers, and making it easier for bad people to commit identity theft and financial breeches. That what this is.
