'Data can be weaponized': Ronan Farrow sounds alarm on DOGE access to private Social Security data - Briefing w/Jen Psaki

[Rhiannon12866]

Ronan Farrow, contributing writer to the New Yorker, talks with Jen Psaki about the Supreme Court granting DOGE access to private, personal Social Security data, and how Elon Musk's agitated behavior, combined with the sensitivity of personal data, makes our new reality particularly perilous. "There is an erratic person who has his own complicated international alliances and business interests who is controlling key functionality that the American people depend on." - Aired on 06/06/2025.

1. The billionaires/Trump crime syndicate can tailor make scams for each American.

Specific to each person based on their data, history, financial status, etc.

2. Of course there's the scams

But I truly worry that the Krasnov regime will just start raiding our bank accounts.
Project 2025 is following many of Viktor Orbans steps into power. Taking the pensions, in control of the state, away from the people. Much like our social security, managed by the government.

Before Orbán came to power, Hungary had a hybrid pension system, with some funds kept in the state system, while a part of savers' pension pots was kept in private funds. Employers and workers made mandatory contributions to both.

Soon after he was elected in 2010, Orbán's government ended mandatory payments into the private funds and nationalised most of the money they contained. That effectively allowed the government to take €9.6 billion in private pension assets. Poland has since made a similar change to its pension system.

Economists and investors were alarmed at the Hungarian move, but the government softened the impact. It said savers could choose to stay in the private funds, although the mandatory contributions would not go to them.

3. Yes pensions, 401Ks, savings accounts.

All of it is fair game to the US billionaires and crooks.
And to Russian, Chinese, NK hackers.

All the money in the world belongs to them they think.

5. Insatiable addiction to money and power.

No about of money or power is enough for them.
It will never fill the holes in their soul.

And it is destroying the planet and the people on it.
