        There’s is book from 2010 about this topic, the author and title escape me at the moment, but it explains that this is the path the USA is on on purpose to create good little obedient workers who have no critical thinking skills from arts and literature education.

    There is no justice until this ratfucker is hauled off, imprisoned, and everything he’s done needs to be fixed.

    He does not deserve his freedom and humanity can’t withstand it.

    I mean there’s no win for Americans here. They did what they wanted with it and made off like bandits.

    And the United States of America isn’t big on justice so there won’t be any.

    It’s incredibly sad that they will never have consequences from what they did with this. Any functioning society will lock Musk and everyone up as soon as possible

      “Did you reduce the federal deficit?” the attorney asked.

      “No, we didn’t,” Nathan Cavanaugh responded

      “I think a person can have enough judgment from reading books and being well-informed outside of traditional experience to make judgment calls about obvious things like a grant that literally lists DEI in its description,” Nathan testified.

      “What books?” the attorney asked

      "There were no books,” Cavanaugh said.

      If it weren’t so depressing this would be some of the funniest shit I have ever seen. As it is, it’s still pretty funny, seeing these clowns have to (fail to) justify their decision to real, serious people.

    The armed guards in the lobby of the first agency they raided should have shut down the DOGE Pirates right there in that lobby with extreme prejudice. That’s the very reason they carry guns. Instead, they just let them in.

    Then we could have fought it out in court, like we should have.

    Bunch of fucking murderous pieces of shit. They all deserve to be publicly beaten within an inch of their lives. Then they deserve to be denied medical assistance. I hope they all drown in baby shit.

    I hope this doesn’t mean USDS shuts down. I wanted to apply there assuming it would return back to its software development roots.

        You want there to be no internal friction? You want no-one who can later recall what’s been broken and where the parts have been scattered?

        I beg for you to reinterpret my comment my guy. I don’t really want to explain it to you, but to put it shortly: you got the wrong message from it

            No problem. USDS wasn’t always about ‘efficiency’ and used to be a way for digital services to be made. For example, if Medicare for All were to happen, who makes the web dashboard for every American to log into? Before doge was a thing, it would have been USDS. Hopefully Trump doesn’t kill the office is what I’m saying, so whenever we get Medicare for All through it’ll be made by some competent people and not claude or fable or whatever the next hot AI slop generator is.

    So is it gonna go back to being the USDS and doing the good work that organisation did? Or is it just dead?
