DOGE employees gain accounts on classified networks holding nuclear secrets
Source: NPR
Two members of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency were given accounts on classified networks that hold highly guarded details about America's nuclear weapons, two sources tell NPR.
Luke Farritor, a 23-year-old former SpaceX intern, and Adam Ramada, a Miami-based venture capitalist, have had accounts on the computer systems for at least two weeks, according to the sources who also have access to the networks. Prior to their work at DOGE, neither Farritor nor Ramada appear to have had experience with either nuclear weapons or handling classified information.

I hope I'm just being hyperbolic.

And the speed at which they "audit" these government departments to decide who to terminate is not realistic at all. I just don't get it. And trump will as usual take no responsibility.... he'll blame Elon and claim he had nothing to do with it.
AAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH
