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).
Occam’s razor would suggest they are both just that stupid. He has even more scrutiny for doing the same kind of illegal things he was doing behind the scenes at Twitter. Now, he has to deal with unions and contracts.
100% this. They are both fucking power hungry morons.
Hanlon’s razor, to be precise !
lol…for our fellow humans, yes, of course. for two with such history of malfeasance, no. They are both stupid, and acting in malice.
