So, you're pro-NED? I did admire his hair...
"David Lebryk, a career civil servant who oversaw the more than one billion payments that the federal government makes every year, was placed on administrative leave this week after resisting requests from Mr. Musk’s lieutenants, according to people familiar with the circumstances, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe sensitive internal dynamics.
"The Government Accountability Office estimated in a report that the government made $236 billion in improper payments — three-quarters of which were overpayments — across 71 federal programs during the 2023 fiscal year."
"Members of the departing Biden administration were alarmed by the request, according to people familiar with their thinking. The people making the requests were on the Trump landing team at the Treasury Department, according to a current White House official."

So, your story is that big 'ol meanie, the Elon, is trying to force St. Lebryk to horribly compromise Americans' PII and he is bravely quitting his job so he won't have to watch the destruction of everything good and decent. The NY Slimes says that Treasury was hemorrhaging $hundreds of Billions every year, which Lebryk was handling from his office as Fiscal Assistant Secretary he has held since 2014, the senior career position in the Treasury Department. DOGE was a campaign promise that got the Donald elected, and is after the source of the bleed in Treasury, and Lebryk couldn't hold DOGE off anymore once Bessent was in office.
Also, you're misstating whom is doing what. The Elon didn't put Lebryk on administrative leave. That would have had to come from Bessent, or Trump hisself. Subpoenas come from courts of law, not from rocket scientists. You are quite concerned that fraudulent claims paid by the US Treasury are going to be detected. Something weighing on your conscience?
RE: The Threat is Real. Can the DOJ Defend DOGE?
