The acting head of the Social Security Administration (SSA) quit her job over the weekend after butting heads with the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), over efforts to access certain sensitive government records, according to reports.
The Washington Post reported that three people familiar with Michelle King’s departure said on Monday that she stepped down from her position after the disagreement.
In response to King’s departure, President Donald Trump reportedly appointed Leland Dudek to lead the agency as the president’s nominee to serve as commissioner of the SSA, Frank Bisignano, is vetted by federal lawmakers. …

No where to run, toots.
I would love to know what advantages / weapons DOGE has.
How are they accessing these often old, diverse and complex government systems? How are they collecting - and especially analyzing - such huge databases so quickly?
Peter Thiel (who was at Paypal with Musk) and Alex Karp, founders of Palantir, are supporters of Trump. Palantir is a “big data” software firm, supplying software to the DoD, NSA, specially for collection of lots of data and analysis of it.
One wonders if they designed something specifically for DOGE?
She worked there a long time. I see a Congressional Committee in her future.
All these secretive, woke, anti-Trump types used to skimming off the public tax money going by them are now leaving in droves.
What are we going to do without them all?
Fun to find out.
Michelle King, a career federal worker who had been with SSA since 1994…. Michelle, you are one of the problems with the incorrect data base. It should have been cleaned up and after 30 years you worked there it’s a mess. I think you “resigned” because you were going to be fired!
Fed critters. After the DOJ, and now the SSA, maybe don’t “butt heads”? Just follow instructions, answer questions?
Instead of doing a Fredo, “It ain’t the way I wanted it! I can handle things! I’m smart! Not like everybody says... like dumb... I’m smart and I want respect!”
Then you won’t have to take the Walk of Shame past your coworkers, escorted by security carrying all your stuff in a bankers box.
Because you work for us, through them.
I don’t understand this attitude by federal workers. Oh well. Next?
That’s the left for ya- if they don’t get their way, they take their ball and go home in a fit.
Fredo!!!!!
I often speak to my mom in Godfather language.
I.e. when explaining the assassination of Nasrallah to my mon:
Mom,bibi did it just like the godfather. He waited for his christening while speaking at the UN, and took out barzini and the heads of all the families in lebanon
My mom laughs
I kindz suspect that the ones leaving are the ones with skeletons that they don’t want discovered, and are panicking not knowing what to do, hoping that maybe if they quit that they won’t be looked into further- but it’s just a hunch
Tds is a real and very powerful malady. It is actually driven by the evil one who hates a dating decent and good and moral, and drives people to act irrationally. We are seeing many examples of it for sure
Yes Virginia, there is a deep state.
Quit because she needs to run over to get legal representation
Bkmk
Don’t let the screen door hit you in the ass on yer way out, sister!

Great! One more off the payroll and less waste or whatever anti American things this person was involved in.
A guilty conscience is the ONLY, ONLY, ONLY reason such an exit would take place. The teachers on the grade school playground caught the bullies red-handed. I do mean red with the blood of their innocent victims.
Thats an OLD Photo from 1998.
That Nasty Bidenista was placed there to Block .
Buh bye. Door, ass, etc...
