Musk's Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, installed a Starlink Wi-Fi terminal at the White House in March – despite warnings from security officials that doing so could open the administration to potential data leak and espionage risks.

Under DOGE's instruction, the SSA made significant changes, including a 7,000-job workforce reduction and a new anti-fraud system.

Despite the billionaire’s exit from the White House, DOGE remains central to an effort to make Social Security a “digital-first organization.”
