One of the two staffers for Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency who was granted access to the US Treasury’s sensitive payment system has resigned from his post after the White House was asked about his history of racist social media posts, including advocating for repealing of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
Another post that same month encouraged users to “normalize Indian hate,” referring to the large number of Indian immigrants working in Silicon Valley’s technology sector.
In one December 2024 post, he wrote that ““99% of Indian H1Bs will be replaced by slightly smarter [large language models]” and later added: “They’re going back don’t worry guys.”.
Marko Elez was one of two DOGE staffers granted access to the Treasury Department’s payment system.
In one September post reviewed by the Journal, Elez reportedly wrote: “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity.”.
