Now that billionaire Elon Musk has stepped away from his White House job as a “special government employee,” DOGE staffers he brought on board are exiting too – some not because they want to leave.
According to a report from the Washington Post’s Faiz Siddiqui, Hannah Natanson, Cat Zakrzewski, Alex Horton and Elizabeth Dwoskin, the influence of DOGE is waning and Cabinet heads are hiring back employees who were dismissed during the mass purge initiated under Donald Trump’s anti-government administration.
The Post is reporting, that Musk’s influence with Trump’s people has fallen apart since he and Trump have turned on each other with the billionaire going so far as to suggest there is information about the president in the Jeffrey Epstein files.
Considering what they deserve, they’re getting off lightly.
“Being pushed out”-- of a helicopter?
Wow I could not muster up a shit to give about Musk and his Doge incels even if I ate Taco Bell.
It’s a wake up call to me how much power there is for the wealthy. No other type of person outside of government could have done what he did.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again:
Imagine if this was a democrat presidency with a democrat controlled congress.
Understanding the conservative mind means accepting “my group is good. when my group does something, it’s good.” That’s it. Well, that and “whatever is good for me and mine right now is good”.
There’s no grand underlying theory or unifying thought. They’re just assholes
But they actively vote for things that aren’t good for them and theirs.
They’re just assholes
They’re just stupid assholes.
Or so propagandized that they are effectively brain damaged, my grandmother was raised by folks who were progressive Republicans and first voted in the 1800s for Theodore Roosevelt. She is still under the propagandized delusions that the modern Republican party is the same one her grand parents and great grandparents voted for.
Well, TR was a fan of eugenics, and a big believer that imperialist wars were good for a society. Those beliefs fit well with MAGA. But his absolute hatred towards corruption, and his protection of the environment, would get him expelled from the modern GOP.
“Help they’re forcing us to have free healthcare and social safety nets.”
Why would dems ever do that when they can keep raking in lobbist money and illegally insider trade?
Then literally nothing would change in regards to oligarchy.
Musk has no problem scamming neo-liberals. Just look at spacex and the hyperloop.
Most people inside the government couldn’t have either
From Big Balls to “Ow! My Balls”
Shit. I know shit’s bad right now, with all that starving bullshit, and the dust storms, and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings. But I got a solution…
They should all go open a taco stand.
Cabinet heads are hiring back employees who were dismissed during the mass purge
Hopefully they get to keep any redundancy payouts AND come back on higher wages. After all, if they’re being hired back then it shows their role was critical.
How do you work for this bell-end without being tarred and feathered by your peers?
We’re doing something wrong.
Best news today… A bright spot.
GTFO!! Don’t let the door slam on your ass on the way out!!
😂 🤣
Well… here’s the thing; once Mush’s doggies are out, Trump is gonna put in his own cronies and they’ll probably be agenda driven fanatics rather then Techbro fail sons. While I’m not sure, I think that a step worse?
While I’m not sure, I think that a step worse?
Two cheeks of the same ass.
Victory!
They got all the data. They won.
Well, at least we got one good thing accomplished. We should celebrate the small wins too, it could’ve been worse. And it could be worse too, but that’s why we keep fighting.
But “we” didn’t get anything accomplished. It’s just bickering in the White House—as usual.
While i understand people need to have a job they shouldnt come back. I wouldnt. I hope all of then found something more worthwhile already
That makes DOGE win.
That would just generate more waste. The people who were dismissed already have all the relevant knowledge and skills and won’t need to
rumpramp up like a new hire.Edit: Freud
Time for MAGA to accept that it was entirely a grift.
I might not mind living in interesting times if the people who vote for Republicans would all realize they’ve been duped and choose to join the protests against the GOP politicians. If non-rich Americans could all work together, there’d be no stopping us.
You can’t even consistently convince liberals that Kamala is better than this shit. And you think adding a bunch of conservatives will help?
There are plenty of non-rich Americans who aren’t Democrats and aren’t rightwing idiots either.
I see your point. A way out of this that doesn’t require their support l would probably be quicker, but it would be far more peaceful and lasting if we get it.
