Summary

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy’s new “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) began recruiting “high-IQ small-government revolutionaries” willing to work 80+ hours per week with no pay to help slash federal spending.

Appointed by President-elect Donald Trump, the panel is tasked with recommending spending cuts, regulatory rollbacks, and agency restructuring by July 4, 2026.

Musk and Ramaswamy advocate for drastic measures, including cutting grants to nonprofits and potential mass layoffs.

      See, those would be better terms to use. It wouldn’t fit the acronym, but they’d be more precise and not imply that chunky people are easily grifted.

        It was not meant to imply “that chunky people are easily grifted”, my intent was that Elon & Trump were the endomorphs, but it was obviously easily misconstrued.

        Either way, your point was valid and it has been edited :)
