Maybe instead of the Department of Government Efficiency it should be called the Department of Government Slowness, Hostility, Inefficiency, & Troublemaking. Or DOGSHIT for short.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

DOGE vowed to make government more ‘efficient’ — but it’s doing the opposite
(www.washingtonpost.com)
Disbanding Organisations Governing Elon.
> takes over the government
> disbands USAID and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
> refuses to elaborate
> fucks back off to running his Nazi car company
BOOM washingtonpost blowing the lid off the hypocrisy in Washington!!
*yawn*
Patent obvious things still need to be said because:
- Not everything realises/believes the thing is true even if it is patently obvious
- If it is not said then it allows those who lie about the thing to be unchallenged, and the infamous Nazi propaganda minister Goebbels (edit: putatively) said, if you repeat a lie enough times, people will believe it
Agreed but when that's all they do . . .
No way, really?
You mean stealing money from the poor and giving it to the rich isn't the definition of efficiency? Huh
Should have realized it was the Department Of No Guarantees.
Well they did just make the government significantly more efficient, specifically by firing Elon Muskrat
Saying that firing Musk made the Government more efficient is like doubling the price of a TV then marking it "40% off" for Black Friday
That was my point, he made efficiency significantly worse and then just left with absolutely no consequences. I was just making a joke :3
