‘Good luck with that.’ Trump administration terminates privacy officials at agency overseeing government hiring and firing
"The Trump administration has quietly fired multiple members of the “privacy team” and other officials from the office that oversees the hiring of federal workers, a move that limits outside access to government records related to the security clearances granted to Elon Musk and his associates, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.
CNN was first notified of the firings at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) in response to a freedom of information act request for records related to the security clearances of Musk and anyone from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) who has been granted access to sensitive or classified government networks.
“Good luck with that they just got rid of the entire privacy team,” an OPM email address responded to CNN’s FOIA request."
