Employees at the U.S. Department of Education have repeatedly treated the U.S. government’s trove of student information as a personal playground and piggy bank, according to a Freedom of Information Act release obtained by the Daily Mail.(excerpted)

The Daily Mail’s inquiry found other cases of bizarre wrongdoing by the department’s 5,000 employees, including one worker who was caught searching for the student loan records of “Barrack Obama” (sic), apparently unaware that the president has already made most of his student loan details public.

you didn’t...that’s call rewriting news history

[Major Matt Mason]

He has not made any of this public. Probably a lib that wrote the article.

Obama hasn’t made any of his personal info public.

He’s still claiming the $10 million he made while President was from his book sales.

Bah, that information is just boring...wait until they get the health care info. Now that will be interesting!

Illegals steal ss numbers all the time. What is this bs?

I have never understood why FAFSA is so completely intrusive on a family's financial details.

Anyone that can see my daughter's info has access to my info.

Wonder how many times political operatives have accessed “educational” data?
