The agreement came in response to a lawsuit accusing Treasury of committing an "unlawful action" by giving private info to Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency.

I suspect that the damage (for the most part) has already been done.
more than likely. the backdoors installed, all the data copied.
Yup..one the back doors are installed they can fire musk for publicity. It doesn't matter
Even if they don't do things to disrupt, they could use all the data they pirated in the same bullshit way they did the "Twitter Files" (and fuck Matt Taibbi for that - leftist, my ass) to a credulous bunch of right-wing dumbasses again as an excuse for why they carried out their hacking activities/biggest data breach on America and Americans.
World's most powerful military, biggest most far reaching and all intrusive global security organization, all seeing, all knowing, all capable ... and all it took to undo it all was an unelected billionaire and six unqualified, unsecured, inexperienced young men with computers.
the truth at the center of every political ideology is that every human organization is a coagulation of trust. the politics we engage in are simply about getting the most power to the most trust worthy people. personally i'm of the view that this means power should be distributed to the populace, make of that what you will. but this has always been possible. the only thing preventing it was keeping untrustworthy people away from power. we failed this election to do that. it is what it is. now we have to start coalition building all over from the start, so we will.
so bear the following in mind: any decision that affects more than two people is political. relationships are political. everything you do and say is propaganda. so build strong relationships. support people because strong people support people. reduce the harm that this system does to the people you support because hurt people hurt people. building a better future starts at home.
America is dying with a whimper
