As a fired fed, I’m not going to be sad if Trump fires the DOGE minions.
June 6, 2025 at 2:50 PM
He got what he wanted and his minions are still in place.
Elon Musk sure seems happy to be fleeing DC!

In a new interview that aired today, DOGE’s ex-doge told CBS he didn’t always agree with the Trump administration and was “disappointed” in the GOP-backed budget bill. 👀🍿

How is this okay?
Today, just two weeks after he was sentenced to 18 months in prison for tax crimes, Paul Walczak received a full pardon from Donald Trump.

His mother, Elizabeth Fago, went to a $1-million-per-person fundraiser for Trump at Mar-a-Lago last month.

While Elon Musk’s DOGE is taking an axe to the federal workforce, the group itself is hiring. Seems fair, right?

The US DOGE Service—formerly the US Digital Service (USDS)—has been interviewing candidates and offering salaries at the top of the government pay scale.

WIRED spoke with someone who applied for a job at Elon Musk’s so-called DOGE and discussed the five-step hiring process.

US science is so powerful because public dollars are spent, by the government, on fundamental research that the private sector will not support. If NIH goes away, US biomedical science will collapse.
Another way to say it : one of the reasons why US science is so powerful is that they have much more money than many places for their research. This also creates all kind of self reinforcing effects.
“Recruiting U.S. scientists is a fine idea – except we’re barely supporting Canadian scientists as it is”

I'm incredibly disturbed by what is happening to every agency and program and by this administration's policies. We need to focus a lot of attention on voting rights. Cause gunning for the mid-terms is pointless if they don't let us vote!

The only thing standing between voters and voter suppression is the U.S. Senate. If 60 Senators vote for the SAVE Act, millions of voters will be disenfranchised and we're headed down the path of one-party-rule. We can't let that happen. Call your Senator or message now: bit.ly/4hZ7B…

NEW: Trump to USA: There is no rule of law.

Today, Trump signaled he would not abide by court decisions and return to the US a Maryland father who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador. He won't even ask El Salvador to send him back. This is cruel & dangerous.

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him.

He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons.

He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him.

He’s defying the Supreme Court.

Don’t you see what’s happening here?
