Elon Musk Is Faking DOGE Results to Hide His Incompetence
Elon Musk’s supposed savings aren’t entirely correct.
Honestly who fucking cares if DOGE is actually efficient. Elon is an appointed executive branch official who hasn't been confirmed by the senate. He is wielding power unconstitutionally and needs to be removed immediately.
So standard operating procedure he uses at Tesla? Of course he is
No at Tesla he abuses his own workers and isn't held accountable by the executive branch.
Here he is abusing our workers and isn't held accountable by the judicial branch.
Totally separate.
I mean he certainly is incompetent but the idea that you could actually achieve anywhere near the results he is claiming with a bunch of racist teenagers in a month is absolutely insane.
It would be nice if we actually had the government audited to find waste and fraud. But it would take probably near a billion dollars and at least a years time and large dedicated team from a respected public accounting firm. Or even simpler, you could just increase GAO's funding and actually read their goddamn reports.
It's so sad that our nation is so clearly being hoodwinked and who knows the long-term damage it will cause as he just destroys any semblance of functional government with his reckless acts. What we are witnessing is pretty much the definition of fraud.
Some are racist 20-somethings
Tomato, potato.
One might say, he's dodging reality.... I'll see myself out...
Does he need to lie? When you take an axe to the entire federal hovernment you're bound to save money, same as the average person would if they stopped buying food and paying mortgage. You may end up homeless and possibly dead but it will reduce your spending.
But they are not. They are cancelling contracts where they have to pay damages, laying off people who probably were retiring anyway for a half year and paying them. None of that saves money
No, he's not. He's faking the entire premise of "DOGE" being about "efficiency" in order to obfuscate the fact that its real goal is to be a partisan purge, replacing career subject matter experts with MAGA loyalists at all levels of the bureaucracy.
Hell, he's not even trying to be sneaky about it! It's just the barest of fig-leaves, cynically designed to act as an exploit against journalistic ethical standards that naively require "objectively" reporting his claims as if they were being made in good faith. Even though the claims blatantly are not and everyone paying attention knows it, including the journalists themselves, the media can't call out the bullshit without upending decades of tradition and inviting even more attacks (also in bad faith) against their integrity than they're already getting.
And he is using it to quell regulations and investigations into Tesla and SpaceX. Which is a crystal clear conflict of interest and instead of the US Marshals deputizing his security staff they should be arresting him.
Quelling investigations into himself is the third thing in the "arson, murder, and jaywalking" [[warning: TVTropes link](https://www.xkcd.com/609/)] Musk is committing.
More importantly to the purge is taking control of all the payment methods of the US government. He can control anything if he controls the money. He can funnel it all to himself, or cut off funds for anyone he doesn't like or any department that threatens him. Congress has no control and neither does Trump.
That's been his entire career, has it not?
Just look at all the savings!
It's a roman graph.
He's sending his wallet out to us.
All this was inspired by the principle – which is quite true within itself – that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods.
It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying.
Let's dispel with this fiction that Elon Musk doesn't know what he is doing. He knows exactly what he is doing.
(Fuck you, Marco Rubio, I'm stealing your bitch ass quote and detourning that shit.)
Musk may be an idiot in a lot of ways, but he knows how to leverage his power over others.
Musk may be an idiot in a lot of ways, but he knows how to leverage his power over others.
This is comically easy to do when you wield unconscionable amounts of economic power. I don't think that makes Musk "not an idiot" in any way.
He knows how to win a knife fight... step 1, bring 300 allies with semi automatic weapons... 2. Don't actually step into the arena.
Wow, that's some terrible writing.
Oh look, they're cooking the books. Who could have predicted this?
And after getting called out for ‘mistakes’ enough times, they’ll just stop being ‘transparent’ because “we don’t deserve it” anymore since we were so mean to him and his team.
Just like Goring lied to Hitler.
Yes, but he's surely fucking things up. There are likely no upsides though.

Its Path of Exile again, but the game is the world this time.
Elmo lied? He would never!
Except.that time of the robo taxies
And that time about the boring company doing tunnels 100 time cheaper
And that time with hyperloop causing tens of billions of investment in impossible tech that any 5th grader could debunk
And that time about rockets on Tesla's
And that time that unfounded Tesla
And that time about solar roofs
And that time about Tesla full self driving
And that time about those laughably stupid robots
And
And
And
And
And
And
And
And
And
And
And...
For this reason they created a website:
Oh I like that lady’s sign: “Department of Greedy Elon” is perfect.
Department of Government Enrichment
DBE Department of Billionaire Enrichment is what it's looking like.
except that it isn't the government it's enriching...
Department of Gelon Enrichment?
It is simple any time a republicans mouth is moving it is lying.
He's been faking FSD for a while now, this is even easier to get away with.
Just like his wives did...
Can we prove it? Is there actual real data showing anything that he HAS found? With real proof?
Can we support our great President (/s) by showing him where the real inefficiency lays?
The Public: We want proof of inefficiency.
Elon: We have proof of inefficiency at home.
Proof at home: Elon posting a conspiracy theory on Twitter under an alt account and then vaguely confirming the theory under his main account.
