This is going to keep happening.
DOGE was never about efficiency. It will go down as one of the biggest scams in history. A taxpayer-funded political stunt, and now we’re paying twice to fix it.

Doge wasted billions of $$$ with its stupid & utterly random cutting of federal programs and employees.😡
It’s an ongoing data breach. That thievery hasn’t ended.
DOGE was a data grab of tax payers personal information.
Hope they ask for a big raise before they come back
They have all of our data. That was the point. Never mid the midterms, this country is decades from being truly fixable.
And that's just the beginning! The chaotic politics together with the personal enrichment of Trump and his mafia family will cost the normal American population, as well as many people worldwide, not only a lot of money, but unfortunately also many human lives.
DOGE was the "waste, fraud, and abuse" they claimed to be battling! When you're too ignorant or stupid to know how & why things work, everything looks disconnected and unnecessary.
All for the profits of a few billionaires.
DOGE was a Trojan horse for data theft. Nothing else.
That stolen data on every American is worth billions.
Most have no idea how much power can be wielded in nefarious ways w/all that data.
Americans are defenseless now, as their info is sold to the highest bidders.
Indeed. The DOGE stupidly will haunt us for years.
I’m glad that some previous employees have the patriotism and grace to work for the government again after the way they were treated.
The National Weather Service has received permission to hire 450 meteorologists, hydrologists and radar technicians just months after being hit hard by Department of Government Efficiency-related cuts...
They really shouldn’t mess with first responders esp the ones who are involved in natural disasters.
I hope those who got dicked around by Cheeto Moussolini are asking for a signing bonus and a raise. Take it out of the Golden Shower Ballroom Fund.
Can someone explain to me how firing people then rehiring them back helps to cut waste and abuse🤔.
DOGE ... so much wasted money to do absolutely not a damn thing that was worthwhile.
Talk about fraud, waste, and abuse.
So, we gotta 3rd party yet?
Yeah, because firing and re-hiring people is oh so fucking efficient. What a joke.
The Clown Car Cabinet
And DOGE has destroyed Software to add Musk Software; & Palantir, probably with $Billions in Contracts.
We had a severe storm here in central Montana last week. There were NO early warnings at all. Normally, my phone, laptop, and TV all go off several times before a storm. This time, nothing. Scarey.
It was data-mining. Efficiency was never the goal.
If I were those weather employees, I’d demand TWICE the salary or a contract plus backpay for lost wages. ⚠️
I truly believe DOGE was about getting in, finding files that implement certain peoples of certain misdeeds and then deleting them from those places where transparency matters. It was never about efficiency or funding.
Maybe they will only hire white male meteorologists, you know DEI stuff. Bastards. Maybe one plan of Doge was intentional, to get rid of trump's undesirables.
Not only not a dime saved but this entire DoGE scam cost the US $Billions
It was a scam to collect all our private information. Mission accomplished.
Still I’ll take this over understaffed agencies.
They know it’s hurricane season mixed with plane crashes and it’s not pretty.
Theives
I think you are being too kind.
Doge was a stealth bomb set to destroy America after Trump is gone and Musk has created a better retreat zone...
We'll end up having to pay many times more than keeping them employed by the end. we'll pay -higher rehire salaries. -court costs and settlements. etc
Seems efficient… 🤷🏼♂️
For anyone who works in HR or Finance; it is obvious that this "strategy" fire/rehire cost money in lost productivity, lost staff, and training costs.
This is Republicans' cost saving actions.
They gained access to all of our agencies software and access to the personal information of all individual Americans. They have opportunity to change data, steal data, sell data. The have the ability to sabotage these systems, manipulate these systems, and possibly bleed off funds.
Everything is a scam in this regime. The real question is when people will stop being gaslit into believing there’s a coherent and concerted plan about anything.
It was a money-and-power grab on its face.
But it was a Data grab more than anything, and gave Peter Thiel everything he ever dreamed of and more.
The DoD just gave him 75 contracts for Pantir. They merged all those into 1.
Yet even more corruption in plain sight.
Trying to get those job numbers up? 🤔
Don't forget the data.
the USA is a laughing stock for the rest of the planet …. utter morons electing a felon as a “POTUS” utterly utterly morons
They wanted our data, the rest was a smokescreen, mission accomplished
Are they being required to hire back people they RIF'd or are they hiring political lackeys to fill those posts? I recall the Trump Regime just got a judge to weaken the federal workers union. I suspect that had to be accomplished before they were able to hire lackeys to fill the spots.
And losing SO many ppl. A childhood friend worked for USAid for years, loved it, and now they've moved across the country.
The biggest
"Alexa, give me the weather report"
Alexa. Sorry, I am no longer able to receive this information. Blame DOGE and Trump.
"Alexa, you're fired"
It was NEVER about efficiency. It was about getting the personal data of all Americans; shutting down investigations into Edolf & his businesses; and getting more contracts for cronies.
i hope they ask for a lot more money
I wonder if Trump will use this to show an increase in the jobs report?
It was also about Musk getting to load private data onto one of his computers. Which he did.
@cwebbonline.com Sorry, but please don't frame it as a "stunt".
DOGE was the tool used perform the Administrative Coup of the US government. Dept after dept and agency after agency was literally physically invaded, taken over, and gutted. ALL involved are treasonous.
But they’ll quietly hire them back so they can pretend their bullshit was a great success…
Not sure what they pulled off during their data grab they did, but, clearly that’s what it was about. Cause chaos and confusion, get more free info and free money from the government for Elon so he can get richer.
And now Elon has suddenly changed his tune on trump. That way he can swoop in and play the hero after his damage is already done. He learned from the best.
He's going to have to put most of it back together again before we kick his ass out of there and into jail.
A massive data grab. What is Elon going to do with it?
what took them so long?? '
Just like 2008. Republicans making gigantic messes, the Democrats clean them up and then the voters memory-hole the whole thing.
This whole administration is a scam.
To those with a conscience, don't go back.
Worse I’d say - the biggest taxpayer grift / data breach in history, the impact of which will haunt us for a generation or more.
They just wanted all our most personal information.
Got Elon and Thiel lots of data
Duh.
DOGE was about eliminating Musk's competition, stealing data, and eliminating pesky regulations to his business interests. It was never about efficiency in fact DOGE cost us billions.
We can’t fix STUPID!
Is there no one but drumpf and most that Canberra held legally accountable for this pillaging?
Elon Musk's 19-year-old DOGE recruit nicknamed 'Big Balls' is BATTERED and left covered in blood by Washington DC thugs www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
President Donald Trump expanded on his proposal for a federal takeover of Washington, D.C., saying he will stop violent crime in the city by young 'thugs.'
Send the bill to billionaire fElon Musk!
Manufactured chaos
Nothing achieved Just stole and broke a lot valuable shit
gop=smash and grab looters
you'll be lucky if it's only twice.
I hope historians are allowed (able?) to tell this truth.
Probably hiring them back at reduced wages too, so the workers get screwed twice. 🤬
👍👍 Its goal was to break our gov’t systems and transfer our personal data to Elon/others while transferring tax funds to Elon, Trump, themselves. A scam indeed. We need a detailed audit by licensed auditors to summarize the damage they caused, the cost to fix it and to investigate what they took.
Part of their goal was to do just this- now they can install liars who will lie for them and “report” whatever propaganda they want them to!
