Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy reveal DOGE plans for mass firings and drastic cuts
Legal experts have warned that recent rulings could turn the courts into weapons against federal agencies
Summary
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are leading the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), tasked with recommending $500 billion in federal spending cuts.
Their agenda includes defunding organizations like Planned Parenthood and public broadcasting, using recent Supreme Court rulings to justify overturning federal regulations and enabling mass federal worker layoffs.
Critics warn this could undermine public health, civil rights, and gun control regulations.
DOGE’s recommendations, aligned with Trump’s goals, aim to scale back federal oversight and reduce spending but face legal and practical challenges. A final report is due by July 2026.

Good I've been thinking for a while that the supreme court's penchant for monarchy is what's really going to hasten their slide into illegitimacy. I'm sure firing half of DC will not cause the city where they work and maybe live to riot.

Its notnjust DC. There are millions of federal workers all across the 50 states. I cant think of a better way to mobilize millions of voters into direct action.
We need to seize it though. Call them for what they are; job destroyers.

Do you think this will matter? Dude isn't going to be elected again, he's doing a putsch removing anyone in the army that isn't loyal to him AND he's legally allowed to kill anyone anywhere. Do some riots against armed drones and see what happens.

It all matters. If they kill a bunch of soccer moms who worked for HHS or some shit while out protesting, that will radicalize people more quickly than Karl Marx could ever dream of.
