Among Elon Musk's trusted DOGE staffers has resigned from his position after his links to racist social media posts promoting eugenics were discovered. Marko Elez was one of 2 staff members at the Department of Government Efficiency granted access to $5trillion in the Treasury payment systems following an 11th hour court hearing on Thursday.

But by Thursday afternoon, the 25-year-old trusted Musk ally had actually resigned after The Wall Street Journal penetrated his links to the since-deleted social networks account. According to the publication, asteroidsathome.net the X account 'advocated rescinding the Civil liberty Act and backed a 'eugenic migration policy'.' Other check out 'You might not pay me to marry beyond my ethnicity', and 'stabilize Indian hate.' Another allegedly read: 'Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool.' The account likewise weighed in on the Israel-Palestine crisis, with a post that read: 'I would not mind at all if Gaza and Israel were both rubbed out the face of the Earth.'

White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said that Elez (imagined) had actually resigned from his function. Elez graduated with a computer science degree from Rutgers University and went on to work for Musk's SpaceX, Starlink, and X, with a focus predominately in AI. It follows a last-ditch court request to restrict DOGE's access to Treasury's $5trillion system - the first misstep for the nascent agency after weeks of ruthlessly purging federal institutions to eliminate waste and overspending.

Over the coming days and weeks, the court's choice on privacy concerns about DOGE's access to the information will be a monumental test of their power to infiltrate and wipe out federal government spending. Lawyers with the Justice Department concurred to a motion that allows only two people connected with Musk 'read-only' access to the system - including income tax return and social security numbers - on the condition that they do not share what they find with colleagues.

Those two workers are Musk disciples Tom Krause and Elez. Virginia Congressman Don Beyer explained Elez' resignation as 'a scandal.' 'Elon Musk provided a self-described 'racist' and eugenicist access to a system that controls all financial payments from the U.S. Treasury,' he said. 'That system also contains the individual details including Social Security details of every American. This is why we have a procedure to vet civil servants, and why we employ and promote them based upon merit, not their individual relationship to some rich guy. How attempt Elon Musk bully and threaten excellent people who invested their professions serving the American people when he brings this level of gross incompetence to his work.'

He demanded everybody who was associated with hiring Elez be 'fired' and ura.cc said DOGE 'ought to be erased' in its entirety. Musk has faced criticism for his decision to work with a carefully picked group of young, college aged males to assist him purge federal agencies and eliminate waste. This week, six men aged in between 19 and 25 were openly recognized as DOGE employees.

At just 19, Edward Coristine (pictured) is the youngest of the fresh-faced bunch handling business America and longstanding government organizations. According to WIRED, he's been dubbed an 'expert' in his field, biolink.palcurr.com and specifics about his role aren't yet clear.

Akash Bobba, 21, Ethan Shaotran, 22, and Luke Farritor, 23, together with Coristine, have supposedly been given A-suite level clearance for their work, meaning they can work out of the agency's top floor with access to all physical areas and IT systems. Musk's DOGE has been rapidly growing in power and expanding its remit, most recently securing clearance to access to restricted parts of the General Services Administration structures and IT systems.

The earliest of the lot is 25-year-old Berkeley graduate Gavin Kliger (envisioned), who while not identified as having leading level clearance has actually already shown he wields significant power. Finally, Gautier Cole Killian has actually been called for his function with DOGE, which is supposedly on a 'volunteer' basis at this phase.

After widespread criticism about the men's youth, Musk released a statement about the consultations. 'Time to confess: Media reports saying that DOGE has a few of world's finest software engineers remain in truth true,' Musk wrote on X.
