Insiders with DOGE are accused of dismantling security protocols, creating massive vulnerabilities in critical systems. https://foreignpolicy.com/2025/02/11/doge-cyberattack-united-states-treasury/?utm_content=gifting&tpcc=gifting_article&gifting_article=ZG9nZS1jeWJlcmF0dGFjay11bml0ZWQtc3RhdGVzLXRyZWFzdXJ5&pid=PNILoiIJgqmxsxl #cybersecurity #infosec #uspolitics #DOGE #musk
