The DOGE Data Scandal That Could Crash Everything
Summary:
Dr. Jim breaks down a chilling Senate oversight report that exposes how DOGE allegedly mishandled one of the most sensitive databases in the country: the Social Security NUMIDENT file. Think full-blown access to every American’s SSN, birth info, parental records, and employment history — all moved to the cloud with almost no oversight. It’s a real governance failure with potentially catastrophic consequences.
A covert team inside the Executive Office of the President allegedly moved live Social Security data into a cloud environment — without proper authorization, security controls, or audit visibility. In this episode, I unpack what this means for privacy, identity integrity, and national risk. We’re talking full SSNs, editable records, and a governance structure so murky that even Senate-confirmed leaders couldn’t say who was making the calls. If the data’s compromised, the entire Social Security system could collapse — and with it, every workflow that touches identity: banking, healthcare, benefits, you name it.
