Democrats decry "authoritarian regime" after security bars them from entering Education Department

Salon  

Congressional Democrats were barred from entering the Department of Education's headquarters on Friday morning as they tried investigate billionaire Elon Musk’s “DOGE” takeover of sensitive data within. On Wednesday, Democratic lawmakers penned a letter to acting Secretary of Education Denise Carter demanding answers on Musk’s reported takeover and the Trump administration’s apparent intent to shutter the cabinet-level department without congressional approval. In addition to the in-person oversight effort from House Democrats, the University of California Student Association is suing the Department of Education over DOGE staffers’ access to sensitive federal aid information. A complaint filed Friday in federal court accuses DOGE of “feeding sensitive data from ED’s systems into artificial intelligence systems maintained by third parties and subject to significant security risks,” per Bloomberg.
