“Musk’s team said it saved the country $115 billion by slashing wasteful and redundant spending. Not everyone agrees, but he feels he has the country on track and he can step aside.”
Why stay in the house when you lit it on fire.
Saved $115 billion… While the economy tanked by trillions. 🫢
Good job, guys. Work well done! /s
How about just get the fuck out of the government right now? Monday would be great. Here’s your pink slip. Buh bye.
No one is actually getting that. I’ll make a bet they pay like two months of that termination pay then end it and try to claw it back calling it illegal.
What a coincidence…I also quit LARPing when it became apparent that I was going to become bankrupt if I continued it. The difference, of course, was that I was fully aware that I had no power or authority and that it was all make believe.
lol, so he got fired.
Aka shutting the fuck up and sitting down.
He’s afraid… somebody caught on to one his hidden schemes or assets. He will continue to mettle behind the scenes and use Trump as a puppet.
Okay Elon. Here at the grand canyon. Let’s take a photo… Step a little to the side…a little more. A little more…
Has everything he needs to wreck u.s. public holdings remotely …?
He should step off of a bridge instead
Lackluster reporting. The article misses the fact that he has to step down as he’s a special government employee and so can only work for 130 days.
Strange that that’s the one law that he decided to follow.
Keep in mind what he “says” he’s doing and what happens in two months… Are completely separate…
They would keep him on if they wanted to, he’s insufferable to the point that the weirdo accelerationist psudeo-nazi death cult can’t tolerate him.
So he’ll just be a different special employee a day after. Or whatever they need to justify his return.
The Russian constitution omly allowed 2 consecutive terms.
Putin endorsed Medvedev, who served 1 term, then Putin resumed power afterwards.
At which point he removed the 2 term restriction.
They’ve already found another placeholder.
Yea ever since he started the doomers have been screeching “4 more years of this!!” when the 130 day limit was always there from the beginning.
I’m sure this announcement will have them on their heels! After 60 days of destroying the administrative state, they’ll just have to acknowledge it was all a good thing and no big deal since he’s “stepping down” right? Right?
Assuming he actually leaves… the damage done will be with us for decades.
The scars from this presidency will rival the scars of the civil war in duration.
I thought he wasn’t part of DOGE? Haha
He saved the US nothing. He actually cost us money by having all the lawsuits and the loss of services & revenue the US Gov could have had. He did nothing for us. This was a scam to shut down investigations into his businesses and a revenge tour. Breaking the government is not a ‘savings’. So is May the month that they decide to declare martial law because there is an ‘emergency’? Like all the other ‘emergencies’ and ‘national threats’ that they made up? When do they start broadcasting all the news in Russian?
Probably your tax money will also be wasted replacing government buildings and resources that were flogged off for practically nothing, which has been the right wing playbook since Thatcher and Pinochet.
Is he going to step down the same way he stepped down from being the CEO of twitter?
He should be stepping down from a gallows.
a BIG step.
You know when you go to step off a curb, but miscalculate the depth, and end up taking a really big, jarring step down?
Like that, except it’s REALLY jarring.
its always the sudden stop that gets you.
a very very sudden big step
A roll, or partial roll, if you would.
part of him is rolling on the ground.
part of him is still dangling above it.
