It’s fun to watch karma catch up every now and then. Remember when Elon Musk doxxed FEMA CFO Mary Comans and accused her of illegally sending millions of dollars to New York City hotels housing migrants? He got her fired. Well, a federal judge just fully cleared her name, and holy shit, the ruling is delicious. Turns out, Comans didn’t even have the authority to approve those payments herself. You wanna know who did? DOGE did. DOGE personnel had actually approved the continued funding. The judge found that Musk, Kristi Noem, and other senior officials were part of a coordinated campaign to spread accusations about Comans that they knew were false. THAT THEY KNEW WERE FALSE. He described Musk’s conduct as “state sanctioned intimidation.” But this part of the ruling really stuck with me. “For reasons unfathomable to this Court, officials chose to turn the power of the federal government against a singular employee with an impeccable record of public service.” “an impeccable record of public service” A woman who spent 21 years serving the federal government was publicly accused of criminal wrongdoing, fired, and had her reputation dragged through the mud. All over payments she didn’t authorize, and that DOGE actually approved. Who’s being held accountable for what happened to that poor woman?
