Congress? Hello—federal workers here. We are struggling to fight all of this on our own.

Musk's basic math about government cuts does not add up. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/some-basic...
It is possible to cut a lot of federal employees and dramatically cut the spending of the federal government. But it is not possible to dramatically cut the spending of the federal government just by cutting employees. The federal government spends about $271 billion each year on personnel costs.1 Lets assume we go with Ramaswamy’s illegal and irresponsible proposal to cut 75% of employees. That saves you $200 billion per year. That would be about 10% of Musk’s proposed $2 trillion cuts, and a much smaller proportion of overall annual federal spending of $6.75 trillion.
