    That’s not even remotely close to facing karma for what they have done

      Was looking for someone to point this out. DOGE cuts will be tied to the explanation of thousands of otherwise avoidable deaths

    “So, what is this 5 month gap in your CV”

    “Well, I was working for DOGE”

    “Right, I think we know enough and can end this job interview. Thank you for your time. Don’t call us, we’ll call you”.

        The guy who started bringing one of his young children around as a human shield after the United Healthcare CEO got murdered isn’t going to care about the fate of mere minions.

    Musk, for his part, downplayed the idea that DOGE needed him to survive as he left the Trump administration last week.

    “DOGE is a way of life, like Buddhism,” he said. “You wouldn’t ask the question, ‘Who would lead Buddhism?’”

    Grandiose much?

      Is it weird that I feel somewhat relieved that it happened so fast? I was expecting consequences to take a few years to happen, but we didn’t even get to the 6-month mark. I guess karma is working overtime right now.

        I know a large part of his doge dogs are independently rich. They were selected based on being lucky enough to be given daddy’s ceo job first, then dumb enough to listen to him next. You know the type.

    I’m certain Elon will look after his young protégés, right? Surely the richest man in the world wouldn’t leave them all out to dry?

    “If you fire me I will release…” looks at data for a bit, cherry picking some juicy morsels, decides on “…this!”. So I think Elon’s techno-thugs should be safe for a while longer.

    Others worry that if Trump distances himself from DOGE, their ties to it could become a professional liability, said sources.

    Oh you sweet summer child. It was always going to be a professional liability

      And rightly so. If we ever get back to some semblance of normalcy, anyone who bent the knee should be blackballed from government work.

    Oh for… It’s been like a few months, just leave DOGE off your resumes and come up with something to explain the gap! If you were notorious enough to be recognized by name as a DOGE staffer then just go job hunting in the red states or set up somewhere where nobody cares. There’s plenty of tech bro nonsense firms that will take them…The softest brush with anything resembling consequences has this lot screaming and while I understand folk love hearing it their entitled assholery is grating as hell.

      If asked “what is this 5 month gap in your CV”, they’ll have better odds of landing the job by claiming they were in Jail than by admitting they were working for DOGE.

    Feeling worried isn’t karma. That would require actually facing consequences.
