Musk's DOGE team wants to build a 'mega API' for access to IRS data
Briefly

Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is planning a hackathon to develop a mega API for the IRS to centralize data access. This initiative has met pushback from IRS staff, who argue that the proposed 30-day timeline is unrealistic and could lead to system paralysis. Key players like Sam Corcos and Gavin Kliger are pushing for significant changes to IRS operations, including halting current modernization projects. Their goal is to facilitate better data sharing among government agencies, but concerns about technical feasibility remain prevalent.
