DOJ corrections flag possible misuse of SSA data by DOGE team over voter rolls
DOJ court filings reveal corrections suggesting two DOGE team members at the Social Security Administration had broader access to SSA data than acknowledged and may have helped an advocacy group match voter rolls for overturning election results; the filings also show data shared via the unapproved third‑party server Cloudflare, and Steve Davis was copied on a March 3, 2025 email that included a password‑protected file with private SSA data for about 1,000 people. SSA says the DOGE work was intended to detect fraud and modernize systems, but the disclosures raise Hatch Act concerns and questions about data handling; White House and SSA declined comment.
