It's a massive security failure if an ex-DOGE member managed to walk out with databases as sensitive as the Numident and the Master Death File. Accessing the personal records of over 500 million people is one thing, but taking them on a thumb drive to a private employer is an unprecedented breach of trust.

It raises a lot of questions about how these high-level transitions are being monitored.

The IG investigation gets to the bottom of how such a huge leak was even possible in the first place.
