Holy shit y'all...this is bad. Really, really bad.

Their “financial lives,” the Social Security Administration’s acting commissioner, Leland Dudek, wrote in an email to staff, would be “terminated.”

The effort hinges on a surprising new tactic: repurposing Social Security’s “death master file,” which for years has been used to track dead people who should no longer receive benefits, to include the names of living people who the government believes should be treated as if they are dead. As a result of being added to the death database, they would be blacklisted from a coveted form of identity that allows them to make and spend money.

On Tuesday, #AramMoghaddassi, a software engineer working for #DOGE, sent Mr. Dudek the first batch of names to be added: a list of more than 6,300 immigrants, including a 13-year-old and seven other minors.
