A senior executive at the Social Security Administration was physically dragged from his office this week after clashing with DOGE, according to The Washington Post.

Greg Pearre, a career civil servant who led an IT team working on the agency’s data systems, was removed over his opposition to a DOGE plan to cut off immigrants from key financial services, three people told the Post.

The scheme cooked up by Elon Musk’s DOGE squad falsely lists thousands of migrants as dead in a Social Security database known as the “death master file.”

Being entered into the death database cuts a person off from crucial financial services, like the ability to receive government benefits and access a bank account or credit card.

    No idea why you’re arguing semantics. I’m not trying to make a point that there’s a difference here. Nazis and national socialists are the same, we’re in agreement.

      If that’s the point you’re trying to make: You absolutely failed by using the exact same arguments nazi sympathizers use. Hence why you’re being called a nazi sympathizer.
