“Musk has gone even further than late nights: He recently claimed he was sleeping at DOGE headquarters... a habit he may have picked up from his days at Tesla.”

Alison T. Wynn writes about Musk’s DOGE productivity trap, "outdated, but unfounded — and risky."

I can’t take it. “some see”? Just us paranoid race-obsessed people?
