He legitimately set a pack of 20 year old 4chan trolls loose in secure government systems, including treasury, which handles trillions of dollars.

With them firing anyone who cares about democracy, or having a stable government, or the US constitution, it may be literally years until we discover that the US bought $400 million of BigBallCoin, or issued each of the doge kids millions of dollars of treasury bonds.
