Marko Elez has been assigned to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services since March 5, per court filings.

A 25-year-old former staffer for the Department of Energy (DOE), who resigned in 2021 after racist posts from his teenage years surfaced, has been rehired by the DOE. Sam Brinton, now working in a different capacity, has access to sensitive systems despite the previous controversy. His earlier posts, which included offensive remarks about various ethnic groups, led to his initial resignation. The DOE has confirmed his reemployment, stating that he underwent a thorough vetting process and is now involved in roles that require handling sensitive information. This decision has sparked discussions on the rehabilitation of individuals with past controversial statements and the security implications of such hires.
