Summary

Elon Musk claims his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is shutting down payments to federal contractors, including a Lutheran charity, asserting it is eliminating corruption.

This suggests DOGE has access to Treasury’s payment systems, though officials have not confirmed the extent.

Senator Ron Wyden warned that DOGE may interfere with Social Security, Medicare, and government contracts.

Musk also called USAID “a criminal organization” that should “die,” amid DOGE’s growing influence over federal financial operations.

      It doesn’t even need to be. So many of my friends have already decided to tune out completely because they’re sick of hearing about the nonstop shit.

        I’m also wanting to tune out, but I feel that it’s irresponsible to not follow what’s happening.

          This is the correct answer. They want you to tune out.
