• Supreme Court Restores DOGE’s Access to Social Security Data—Blocks Transparency Requests

    The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) can once again access sensitive Social Security data, including private earnings, disability records, and health info. In a 6–3 decision, the Court overturned a lower court’s order that restricted DOGE’s reach—raising massive privacy red flags.

    At the same time, SCOTUS denied a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request aimed at exposing DOGE’s internal documents—granting total operational secrecy.

    ๐Ÿ‘๏ธโ€๐Ÿ—จ๏ธ Translation: They get your data. You get no answers.

    Why This Matters:

    Full access to sensitive data
    No public transparency
    Millions of Americans affected
    Privacy watchdogs silenced

    Dissenting Justices Kagan, Jackson, and Sotomayor warned this opens the door to surveillance abuse, algorithmic bias, and unchecked power.

    BETTR Calls for:

    Full FOIA restoration
    New limits on federal data sharing
    Congressional oversight of DOGE
    A federal Data Rights Amendment

    Read, repost, and join the fight
    This ruling isn't about “efficiency”—it’s about control.

  • Federal Judge: Trump Administration Likely Committed Criminal Contempt Over El Salvador Deportation Flights

    A federal judge ruled that the Trump administration likely violated a court order by proceeding with deportation flights to El Salvador—potentially committing criminal contempt. The flights deported over 260 individuals, including Kilmar Ábrego García, a legally authorized Maryland resident, despite a restraining order halting removals.

    The administration argued the flights were already airborne when the order was issued, but Judge James Boasberg slammed the move as “willful disobedience.” Even after a Supreme Court directive, officials failed to repatriate García, who remains detained in El Salvador.

    Legal experts say this ruling could escalate into serious consequences for former officials, sparking a deeper battle over executive power, immigration enforcement, and judicial authority.
