Re:DOGE has 'god mode' access to government data by drowsspa on Thursday February 20, 2025 @10:46AM (#43116105)
Yeah, that's my point. Not even the president should have unrestricted access to that data. He's not a king or the head of a corporation. And government workers aren't his subjects or employees. In most places, at least honest government workers can stand their ground because they're backed by a law governing this access.

Should have made it clear that I'm not American and I'm just finding it wild from afar.

I guess it's a testament to American democratic cultural history that no coup has occurred in American history when the president has such an absolute authority over the executive branch, as informed to me by the other comments. Let's hope for the sake of the whole world it remains like this.
