Those are speculative, and seem to be based on factual misunderstandings as to what’s actually happening. For example, there’s just one non-treasury employee with “over the shoulder” access to the system supervised by treasury employees: https://x.com/kyledcheney/status/1888904650906099774

People are going to make fools out of themselves again indulging every wild rumor and speculation (pee tape, etc.) without having the facts.

And you suppose the Trump administration can be trusted to supply those facts? Because that's the source you're citing, if I understand Kyle Cheney's tweet correctly (I may not!).

You asked specifically for a reference to what laws the team might be breaking, implying pretty clearly that you didn't believe any such reference could be produced; when it was, you moved the goalposts.

Nobody ever identified any goal posts, just vibes. What law was broken? By what conduct? It’s pretty wild to accuse people of illegal conduct without being able to point to a law or describe in concrete terms what conduct is breaking the law.

You identified the goalposts: what laws, then moved them when someone gave you said laws in the article you dismissed as speculation and vibes.
