FTA: "SSA referred both DOGE employees for potential violations of the Hatch Act."
Probably nothing under this administration. But there is a paper trail–now cited in public–for folks in the future to pursue.
In the meantime, I'm curious what civil damages they may be liable for.
I hope I’m wrong, but in his 5 years as President he has yet to display any hint of restraint or ethical compass, so I would be very surprised if this doesn’t happen.
EDIT: “to punitive action” => “no punitive action”
I expect he will. At that point, Biden will have pardoned his son for felony gun and tax crimes, as well as pioneered the preëmptive pardon, while Trump will have pardoned violent insurrections, drug lords, fraudsters and his corrupt inner circle. If that isn’t enough to build consensus on striking pardon power from the Constitution entirely, I don’t know what will be.
So many things changed between June and December 2024. The country's wheels came off, and the undercarriage dragged on the road and caught fire.

Violations are sent to the President for disciplinary action.
So, no.
Wreckless incompetence at the highest levels of government.
You mean reckless incompetence. There was plenty of wrecking.
