The billionaire expects his audit to face “extreme opposition from the grifters”. Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been granted full access to the US Treasury Department’s payment system, according to reports from The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal. Historically, access to this system has been restricted to a small group of career civil servants due to its sensitivity. The newly-appointed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent authorized DOGE representatives, including Tom Krause, CEO of Cloud Software Group, to access the system, which manages over $6 trillion annually in federal payments, including Social Security, Medicare benefits, and tax refunds. David Lebryk, a career official who had been acting as Treasury Secretary until Bessent’s confirmation, retired on Friday after reportedly resisting requests from Musk’s team for access to the payment system. Asked why a career bureaucrat would retire rather than comply with an audit request, Musk wrote on X that Treasury officials “literally never denied a payment in their entire career.”
