(Sioux Falls, SD) — Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency is going after Lutheran Social Services, potentially impacting South Dakotans. General Mike Flynn accused LSS of being a money laundering operation in a social media post over the weekend. Musk then added “The DOGE team is rapidly shutting down these illegal payments” in his repost of Flynn’s comments. This comes as the US Agency for International Development was shut down by DOGE yesterday. Lutheran Social Services is a faith-based non-profit, providing services like health care, adoption and pregnancy counseling, and disaster response in the Midwest and across the nation. LSS of South Dakota President and CEO Rebecca Kiesow-Knudsen wrote in a statement, “We are deeply concerned by any effort to misrepresent our work and jeopardize the funding that enables us to fulfill our mission.” LSS of South Dakota leaders are urging anyone who may be worried about their services to contact their congressional representative.
