Summary

Elon Musk is distancing himself from sweeping federal job cuts linked to DOGE, blaming agency heads—not DOGE—responsible for mass layoffs, including the announced 70,000 job cut at Veterans Affairs.

Despite claiming DOGE’s role as merely advisory, Musk admitted to mistakes in private meetings with GOP lawmakers and pledged to correct them.

Some cuts have already been reversed, with a Trump administration memo clarifying agencies are not required to fire probationary employees (new hires).

    Yeah, considering he paid for a role in a fascist administration that he pushed in a fascist direction and bought a propaganda outlet for he should be afraid for his life. He’s basically set himself up as a fall guy for a reconstruction government, especially if Trump keels over first.

    Franco’s life was under threat until the great assassin of time finally came for him. At which point his government fell.

    And I don’t feel sorry for him because I’m over here just living my life and he’s trying to get people to hurt me and people like me instead
