Action 1: Thank our State Attorney General Rob Bonta!
He was part of a 19-state effort lead by NY AG Leticia James to bring unelected techno-fascist Elon Musk and his team of flying monkeys to heel. Just as when we criticize those legislators who seem to have lost their spines in the wash, we also need to THANK those elected officials who have stood up and protected those they serve.
Idea for a script: I’m writing to thank [AG Bonta] for being part of the successful suit challenging Musk’s wildly illegal breach of The Treasury Department. But please don’t stop there. It’s time that you and the other Attorneys General involved in this action make a criminal referral to DOJ/FBI this week, and ask them to arrest and stop Musk.

Action 2: Get our legislators to back up the criminal referral
Mimimal script:
I’m calling from [zip code] and I want [Rep./Senator____] to back up the successful lawsuit by 19 State Attorneys General against Musk by filing a criminal referral for him and his malicious posse to DOD/FBI.
Additional script if you want it: Also I demand that all the makeshift bedrooms, and the $25,000 laundry facilities, all paid-for with my tax dollars, are removed from government facilities at once. Not only are these buildings not appropriate or safe for residential use, we are not running hotels so a team of economic terrorists can avoid being arrested out in the open.

Federal judge blocks Musk’s DOGE from access to Treasury Department material
(WaPo) “NEW YORK — A federal judge issued an emergency order early Saturday prohibiting Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service from accessing personal and financial data on millions of Americans kept at the Treasury Department, noting the possibility for irreparable harm.
U.S. District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer’s decision also ordered Musk and his team to “immediately destroy any and all copies of material downloaded from the Treasury Department’s records and systems, if any.”
The conditions are in place until another judge hears arguments on the matter on Feb. 14.
The ruling came hours after attorneys general from 19 states sued to stop Musk’s team from dealing with sensitive files during its review of federal payment systems — an unprecedented effort that skirted firm security measures that permitted access to systems only to trained Treasury employees.
In a four-page order, Engelmayer said the states that sued the Trump administration “will face irreparable harm in the absence of injunctive relief.”
“That is both because of the risk that the new policy presents of the disclosure of sensitive and confidential information and the heightened risk that the systems in question will be more vulnerable than before to hacking,” Engelmayer wrote.
He adopted arguments by the states that Treasury records from the agency’s Bureau of Fiscal Services can only legally be accessed by specialized civil servants “with a need for access to perform their job duties.”
Under the order, the Trump administration is prohibited from giving access to political appointees, special government employees or government employees that are not assigned to the Treasury Department. The White House has said that Musk has been designated a special government employee.
The lawsuit, led by New York Attorney General Letitia James (D), says DOGE, a group operating under the direction of President Donald Trump, had no authority to access the Treasury Department’s systems and that doing so was a potentially massive cybersecurity and privacy risk.
“Defendants’ new expanded access policy poses huge cybersecurity risks that put vast amounts of funding for the States and their residents in peril,” says the lawsuit filed late Friday in U.S. District Court in Manhattan. “All of the States’ residents whose [personally identifiable information] and sensitive financial information is stored in the payment files … are at risk of having that information compromised and used against them.”
James and the other state law enforcement officials warned that DOGE, which stands for Department of Government Efficiency, has reportedly used a third-party, open-source artificial intelligence system to process data from other agencies recently, sparking fears that Treasury Department records could be mishandled.
In addition to New York, the states involved in the lawsuit are: Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Wisconsin.”
