Summary
Elon Musk warned federal employees against leaking information, stating, “if in doubt, they are out,” as he helps Trump implement sweeping government changes.
A Reddit post alleged Musk’s team is using “fingerprinting” tactics to track leakers. Musk, who spent heavily on Trump’s re-election, now leads the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which has controversially seized control of federal payment and personnel systems.
The administration is also encouraging civil servants to resign, prompting lawsuits.
Whistleblower protections may challenge Musk’s crackdown on leaks.
I see people saying this a lot, but as someone unfamiliar, which orders are actually clearly violating existing law? There is the mass firings example, but when I looked it didn’t seem clear which rule was actually broken.
I can’t tell if you’re actually serious or not. Did you even attempt to search? Frankly there’s honestly too many for me to be bothered listing here. Furthermore, if you are actually asking on good faith, there have been numerous news articles posted to Lemmy directly, as well as easily available elsewhere.
That said, your whole tone almost screams “I’m just asking questions!”, and I have better things to do.
