Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

He then called the DOGE work necessary but said that "working for the government to get the financial house in order is mostly done."

"I think starting probably next month in May, my time allocation to those will drop significantly," he said.

He added that he expected to keep working for the government one or two days a week for the remainder of President Donald Trump's presidency to "make sure that the waste and fraud that we stopped does not come roaring back." DOGE has not yet proved the fraud it alleges.

I'm just surprised Trump hasn't given a statement on this yet. I've never heard of him letting someone just leave on their own terms, not when he gets to yell "You're fired!" at someone.

When your boss takes a vacation it's not in your best interest to yell obscene remarks as he drives away.

I don't understand what you mean? Are you saying that Musk is Trump's boss?
