It is essential to eliminate waste that has built up over the years in inefficient government agencies. This is a fundamental economic principle. Activists and so-called “expert consultants” could now find meaningful jobs that contribute to the economy.

I'm wondering what people in the blue state are going to do like me how about we stop buying Tesla's and show Elon The working class of America made him rich not his BS.

[bambicrandi]

Wouldn’t all these lays off just flood the private sector? Where there is no jobs? That’s what I’m curious about.

Elon musk is too good for USA. He should send himself to Mars.

Bye-bye And for anyone still getting your news from ABC it’s time you switched to long floormat interviews to learn about the character of people like Elon Musk. Watch a couple 2 to 3 hour interviews and you will know for yourself when he stands for.

[Jim-pg]

If you lost your job under DOGE treat it as a learning experience and find another job. You guys are talented enough and with your existing talents you will be well taken care of. Of this I am absolutely confident. Best wishes.

Casear Borgia conquered Romagna, but found it ungovernable. He put the capable and very cruel Remirro in charge who tortured his way to order. When to people protested, Borgia had Remirro publicly sawed in half and his head put on a pike. So, Borgia was able to gain control but distance himself from the excesses he wanted. Elon…..are you listening to me?

[petereberle]

Bird flu? Airplanes? Narratives be strong with ABC😂

[WOTM]

Clearly indicates that CEOs have nothing to do.
Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, Starlink, Boring, and some more.. and yet he's got the time trolling on Twitter (when it existed, now X) and now this?
