Doge Quietly Vanishes

[MineralMan]

Musk's Wrecking Crew has been disbanded without so much as a whine. That's 8 months ahead of schedule.

[Deuxcents]

1. Elon and his DOGE Team need to be held to account..they came, totally disrupted people's livelihoods

Slashed dire funding and made chaos out of order. They just cannot just fade away and all be forgotten

[MineralMan]

2. Should be so, but won't.

If someone asks Trump, he'll say, "Oh, that. We don't need that any more." And that will be that.

5. And those kids...

Got a shitload of $$ from the treasury too.

3. Musk still owes me $5k

from the article:

Many of the agency’s key players have since moved into other roles across government. Amy Gleason, the acting administrator, became an adviser to the health and human services secretary, Robert F Kennedy Jr, in March. Zachary Terrell, another senior member of the team, is now chief technology officer at the Department of Health, while Rachel Riley has taken up the post of chief of the Office of Naval Research, according to Reuters.

The most prominent of these departures was Joe Gebbia, the co-founder of Airbnb, who has since been instructed by Trump to beautify government websites.

They fire thousands of federal workers, then slide themselves into new federally funded jobs

4. And the DOGE to its end will come

not with a bang, but a whimper.

6. The damage is done

[allegorical oracle]

7. May have taken the money and run, but the Musky odor remains for years.

[PCIntern]

8. They're all ineffective failures.

If it weren’t so important, it’d be hilarious how inept they are.

[Ritabert]

11. Depends what they were up to

If the goal was a back door into Federal databases I would guess they got what they wanted. They wanted to link SS, IRS, and voting data and I'll bet they got it. Don't forget he hired hackers.

9. He got rid of investigations of him.

That was the most important thing for him.

10. Can we claw back their paychecks?

[GreenWave]

12. This must be hammered back during election year.

Your congress GQP (insert name) stood idly by while South African Musk pushed Trump aside and threaten to destroy our country...
He got into your Social Security, etc...

13. Palantir already has our personal data

Social Security and IRS data.

Corrupt SC gave the green light for the release of all that information many months ago. It’s sitting in private servers somewhere.

Doubtless cross-referenced, aggregated and ready for the next step of attaching our faces to our personal information.

14. Yeah

15. I've read somewhere that

a couple of em ARE whining because they are in fear of getting their asses kicked too.

17. It was considered inefficient.

18. How efficient. nt
