Please read this comment from elsewhere in the thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42969050 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42969050. Then go onto Google and read all the details about this person, including what he was given access to; how a federal court upheld his access just earlier today; and then how, hours later, he resigned when his recent social media commentary was discovered. Quick primer: he was one of only two people who reports to Elon Musk at Doge who had access to the treasury department payment system. There is suspicion (to my knowledge not yet proven) that he had write access to the system, but there’s no debate that he had read access because an actual judge stated he could continue to have access today (judge’s decision was before the WSJ reported on the social media commentary and he resigned). If I may, when you’ve had a chance to dig into this, would you reply here and give your take? Would you call it a major red flag? And given the contents of the social media commentary, do you see any parallels to 1939? And if you do see the parallels can you at all, I mean in the slightest, understand where the “panic” is coming from? You don’t have to be at your keyboard or phone crying “fascist!” Just wondering if you can see it, even a little bit. I can, even though I think the fascist language has lost most of its punch from overuse. Note this is just one example of several over the last few weeks. It’s just a very clear one given there is little debate about the facts.
