Sounds good to me. I personally hope that EM hangs in with DOGE for its entire run, despite all of the personal attacks, attacks on his businesses, and even attacks on his customers.

Recovery costs three times as much as preparedness. When several of these great programs get lumped together with some of the bad ones that they are axing, and something bad happens in this country, the cost to get back to normal will be much higher than the cost of not being prepared. I'm all for an audit into a system that's never really been audited, but this entire process has been reckless and will backfire badly if they don't do it more diligently.

They have been studied and audited enough. Time for action.

bullshite

Tear it down and deal with the consequences, or “collateral damage”

when mistakes are made, do what you must to restore the damages and reinstate

But shite is out of hand, stopping everything and then figuring out what needs to be picked back up is the best option right now

frick the consequences, or rather, Damn The Torpedoes, Full Speed Ahead

God Bless Elon Musk and DOGE

He’s the only one who’s given us real fricking answers as to what’s actually going on.

Everyone else hasn’t exposed frick all… and they have way less to lose than elon. Cowards.

I'm fine with what Elon is doing...but isn't his unique position in all this because he has frick you money? Aka he can afford it...aka he has less to lose. I'm not talking about less dollars to lose, but he has less of his net worth to lose than the average man. He is more powerful than those that want him to stop.

There's been some chatter. President Trump even mentioned the possibility of Elon stepping down not to long from now.

Not what I wanted to hear, but we shall see what happens.

Preferable but not realistic. It won’t be allowed, the process would be torpedoed.

All the agencies that comprise the Bureaucratic State present opportunities for the well connected skunks in the federal government to enrich themselves, their family members and friends, been going on for decades and that's why so many lifers in the federal government are much wealthier than if they had worked in the private sector.

I wish he would but inside circles of DOGE reporting he is wrapping it up. I feel this is a shame [and almost want government protection for Tesla].

He used to say he knew what he was signing up for... These last few weeks have been brutal to the man - and the irony - all coming from his favorite supporters in the past.

He was right, when at the end of the Brett Baier interview, he talked about the evil in this world.

EDIT: well that was fast.... maybe he still staying...

Reckless???? Lol.... you can't be taken seriously! This nation and its federal government will only be made better by axing much of the fraud, abuse, and waste. During a government shut down approximately 70-80% of the government isn't affected. Thats all we need.
Stop drinking the MSM kool aid

How will stopping waste, abuse, and fraud have a negative effect on the average American?
It might affect some of the multicorporations that helped get us into this fricked off position, but thats what needs to happen
