Elon Mocks The Federal Workers He Fired In A Post [View all]
Co-President Elon Musk mocked the hundreds of thousands of Americans he has put out of work in a post on X Tuesday, seeming to revel in the destruction of the American middle class that he has helped cause.
"This time, the DC swamp is actually draining," Musk posted in response to a tweet that quoted an CNBC study stating that unemployment is spiking in Washington, D.C. as a result of the Trump and Musk purge of federal employees.
Musk is celebrating the destruction of the D.C. community itself, cynically labeling anyone who works in the public sector as part of the "swamp," despite the fact that his cuts sweep across multiple government departments, from USAID, to the National Parks Service, Health and Human Services, Education, USDA scientists, and even the National Nuclear Safety Administration (NNSA).
With D.C. literally being built for the sole purpose of housing the federal government, it could be catastrophic to the nation's capitol as a city and community to see this level of unemployment. Not just for government workers themselves, but for the service industry that caters to the D.C. community and to the tourism it generates.
