In reply to the discussion: Trump administration scrambling to rehire workers cut by DOGE to fill critical government roles [View all]Martin Eden
(14,584 posts)15. Destruction Of Government Efficiency
DOGE has crippled multiple federal agencies, without any significant deficit reduction as the difficult task of repairing the damage goes on.
But that may not be the worst of it.
PIRACY of sensitive government records on US citizens may very well be the crime of the century. Who now has this data on all of us, and how will it be used -- for private enrichment of the tech kings, or surveillance and power by a king in the Oval Office? Maybe both?
Courts have ruled against this ongoing theft, but the supermajority "conservative" Supreme Court -- that gave Donald Trump immunity for "presidential acts" -- has stayed that ruling, allowing the theft to continue.

Sadly, some trumpers probably will. They still believe in trickle down economics. Something is trickling down

I am certain that some of the people now working for Trump, paid him for the job.

Gosh, maybe it would have been more EFFICIENT to NOT get rid of so many federal workers in such an erratic manner.

They better prepare to seize Musk and Trump assets to pay for this mess.
