So who is he? A man who worked in SSA for more than a decade his job to root out fraud. When DOGE came in they claimed to find MASSIVE fraud, maybe the biggest fraud ever. This mans job was to find said fraud.
What he did, was illegally give DOGE access to things he wasn't allowed to do, including emailing himself documents, to his own personal account, that he then gave DOGE access to! After figuring out what Dudek had done his boss called him and suspended him, and the head of SSA was presumably going to fire him for his security breaches.
Enter DOGE, Musk and Trump, and 2 days later the head of SSA was fired, and they installed.... Leland Dudek as head of SSA, acting of course!
Dudek admits what he did, admits it was against the rules but said he did it to help root out fraud and waste in SSA. That's your freaking job you criminal if there's so much fraud there why didn't you do anything about it in the time you worked there being paid to find fraud?
So they took an employee who broke the law, and rewarded him by making him the head of SSA
