"Twenty-one members of the United States DOGE Service (formerly the U.S. Digital Service) have resigned, citing DOGE's ongoing work dramatically reshaping the federal government.
"We will not use our skills as technologists to compromise core government systems, jeopardize Americans' sensitive data, or dismantle critical public services.

To justify the existence of an illegal government "department" doing illegal things.

And have done well since USDS was created.
Or is the reason it is OK they should have been let go because they were created under the term of fmr Pres Obama?
