Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MASS) said that ELON MUSK was given to the Federal Payment System on Monday, as Chief of Finance Scott Vessent, and protects the American private data and prevents abuse. I sent a letter to know what kind of protection was implemented.
“I am one of the first acts after confirming as a Finance Secretary, and the unrivaled of Elon Musk and his agent has given” completely access “to an important payment system of the federal government. I wrote about the report. Warren wrote in a letter to Vessent, which was confirmed last week by the Senate.
Warren said, “It is very dangerous to interfere with important systems that handle $ trillions of transactions every year.”
She reported that Bessent was reported to have “overlooked” the person in charge of managing extraordinary measures needed by the Ministry of Finance to expand the officially expanded federal authorities last month.
David Levrick, the highest career official of the Ministry of Finance, has left the department last week after being reported that the mask had collided with access to the payment system.
Warren responded to Bessent's role in what this security and management failed and “after giving a system to Mr. Musk's team and then protecting the endability of the federal government.” I say I want.
Note that the federal payment system managed the flow of $ 6 trillion payments related to social security, med care, federal salary, government payments, subsidies, and tax refunds.
She said that the system was “kept closely”.
She has expressed concern that the mask would be unilaterally acted to close the federal program and funding.
“By controlling the system, the Trump administration” unilaterally “and illegally -based on political support, mask and his whimsical. She wrote a team that has been working inside that can risk the financial safety of family and companies. “
She confirmed that the mask and his team had gained access to the payment system, and asked the Basent to specifically disclose who accessed and which systems accessed.
She also asked more about what protection measures were in place to protect American personal data, protect national security, and protect the perfection of the payment system.
She demanded that Bessent would provide answers by February 7.
