Elon Musk, who likes to call beneficiaries of federal spending the "parasite class", runs corporations that have pocketed $38 billion in taxpayer-funded subsidies, loans, and contracts.

DOGE at the IRS
https://www.thebulwark.com/i/157318856/doge-at-the-irs

"DOGE fired—with no real review, no notice, and no transition period—one in five of the #federal employees who manage our #nuclear stockpile. Maybe we don’t need all those #employees currently working at the National Nuclear Security Administration? Maybe we need more? Maybe their duties should be reorganized in some way or another?

I don’t know. Neither does #DOGE."

Headline and text from article: Headline: DOGE at the IRS by William Kristol Text: It’s Presidents’ Day. But because Donald Trump is currently our president, today we have this headline in the Washington Post: “Musk’s DOGE seeks access to personal taxpayer data, raising alarm at IRS.” The Post story explains that “Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service is seeking access to a heavily guarded Internal Revenue Service system that includes detailed financial information about every taxpayer, business and nonprofit in the country.” What could go wrong? Well, what hasn’t gone wrong? As University of Michigan political scientist Don Moynihan writes, “Musk and DOGE are providing a real-time management case study. Unfortunately, all of the lessons are about what not to do.” After all, last week DOGE fired—with no real review, no notice, and no transition period—one in five of the federal employees who manage our nuclear stockpile. Maybe we don’t need all those employees currently working at the National Nuclear Security Administration? Maybe we need more? Maybe their duties should be reorganized in some way or another? I don’t know. Neither does DOGE. So, when experts and the public and Congress reacted negatively to the firings, DOGE scrambled to reinstate the employees. Unfortunately, having canceled their email accounts, DOGE had difficulty getting in touch with the people they’d fired in order to un-fire them.

Dec 1 1955, 69 years ago:

#RosaParks refused to give up her bus seat and became a #CivilRights icon

#BrowdervGayle ruled public transport #segregation unconstitutional in 1956, but Rosa was not party to it- her case was stuck in #Alabama #courts. #Lawyer #FredGray and #NAACP's #ThurgoodMarshall used earlier cases of #blackwomen refusing to give up their seats for #Federal #Court action:

#ClaudetteColvin and #MaryLouiseSmith

#Trump #Musk #Ramaswamy have huge ambitions no humility about what they are undertaking. What they have talked about amounts to wholesale attack on federal agencies designed to eliminate thousands of #regulations, reduce the federal #workforce by an order of magnitude that could cripple the delivery of vital services, effect cost savings that would amount to nearly 1/3 of the #federal #budget or the entire #discretionary part of the budget #government #economy #democracyhttps://wapo.st/4fHN3FA
