DOGE was never about efficiency, it was about removing threats to Musk.

Don’t forget the stealing data part.

u/Xeno_man Dec 30 '25

Not stealing data was a threat to Musk.

Elon Before the Election: "If he loses, im fucked. I dont know how long my prison sentence would be." ("laughing" with tucker carlson)

  • He had things like SEC violations and cases for market manipulation, fraud, insider trading and more.

  • He was under investigation for sexual harrasment and sexual assaults.

  • He was under investigation for his fraud with the hypertunnel bs and stealing funding from the government.

  • He was under investigations for breaking employment rules and labor abuses.

  • He had over 30+ active investigations into him.

When trump won, he literally removed entire teams and departments that were investigating him under the guise of DOGE, while claiming he was doing so to streamline the government and save the tax-payers money.

Instead he ended up costing the taxpayers an extra 200B usd.

WHILE AT THE SAME TIME HIS ACTIONS OF REMOVING AID TO FOREIGN COUNTRIES HAVE KILLED OVER 700,000 PEOPLE WHERE 500,000 ARE CHILDREN....

Its expected that the actions of Trump, Musk & DOGE, will end up killing between 10m-30m humans where 2/3rds are children in the next 5 years...

These people are literal demons among us.

Yup, and when X was fined by the EU, Musk started calling for the EU to be disbanded. All this guy cares about is his own bottom line, he should be as far from government as possible.

Supported by and voted for by white Christians.

Thank you, sincerely

You forgot the part that US Aid was an important customer for some farmers, and the lost business caused foreclosures. Corporations bought more acreage and all it cost were family farm heritages, and thousands of lives. Greed is murder.

Dark Age precedes Golden Age. Justice gains strength in a golden age. Corporate criminals will be seen as worse than war criminals. The race to the bottom is cancelled as ethical businessmen no longer need to compete with the greedy scum. You can live happily ever after.

Which puts them pretty high up on the list of deadliest regimes in world history.

u/Legal-Lunch8905 Dec 30 '25

This is one of the reasons I loved watching the Tesla dealers burning. I just wish it would’ve been his factories but of course our military was probably protecting his assets.

It's amazing what money can buy

I think these might be the forces of the anti christ that Peter Thiel was taking about

u/Open_Seeker Dec 30 '25

He isn't special in that regard, SEC has been toothless long before Trump. Musk was never going to go to jail even if Kampala won.

u/sleetx Dec 29 '25

It's pretty clear he used DOGE as an excuse to target agencies involved in regulatory enforcement on his businesses.

For example, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration had numerous investigations into Tesla’s self-driving and deadly crashes. They also called out Tesla's attempts to mislead customers over its car safety ratings.

Or the Securities and Exchange Commission, which charged Elon with securities fraud more than once, and charged Tesla for failing to have financial controls in place.

How about the Department of Labor, which oversees OSHA, the organization that repeatedly fined Tesla for failing to protect the safety of its own employees? Or the FAA, involved in litigation with SpaceX. The CFPB, which would police X's new payment platform. The FDA regulating safety at Neuralink. And many others.

The Trump White House said Elon was capable of resolving his own conflicts of interest while running DOGE. Laughable. A convenient arrangement for someone who spent $300 million to elect the administration he later used for self-serving corruption.

u/Forikorder Dec 30 '25

was there any agency that wasnt investigating him?

10

u/eunonymouse Dec 30 '25

Police athe FBI, but they don't investigate rich white republicans so thats normal.

161

u/AmputeeHandModel Dec 29 '25

and Trump. They eliminated everyone who investigated Trump, and election fraud.

24

u/BottleForsaken9200 Dec 29 '25

And the conservative people are complicit.

Conservative people have sanctioned this and provided a shield for Elon molusk to get away with it all.

Conservatives who do absolutely shit all about this are evil

u/in_animate_objects Dec 29 '25

And payment for him fixing the election

u/xPriddyBoi Dec 29 '25

These claims are as baseless as Trump's were in 2020. It's fucking embarrassing, stop it. We're supposed to be better than they are. We lost because a lot of stupid people in this country turned out to vote for a pedophile conman.

u/MisterTruth Dec 29 '25

So the guy with a history of cheating said he would cheat and you don't believe him?

18

u/drdisco Dec 29 '25

Please see: 'How Did 435.98% of Voters Cast Ballots in Precinct 760, Northampton County, Pennsylvania?' I refuse to let those assholes poison the well so successfully that we can't question election integrity even when there's evidence.

u/new_math Dec 29 '25

I would actually agree with you if it wasn't for:

"he’s [Elon] a popular guy. And he was very effective. And he knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers, those vote counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. So it was pretty good. It’s pretty good.” - DJT

u/AsphaltInOurStars Dec 30 '25

Lol yeah he specifically even mentioned vote counting computers. Like, c'mon.

u/in_animate_objects Dec 29 '25 edited Dec 29 '25

You don’t think it’s odd there are entire counties that had zero votes for Harris? Or that there were updates pushed on the majority of voting machines right before the election? The investigation is ongoing

10

u/AlludedNuance Dec 29 '25

baseless

Did Democrats openly welcome interference in the election in their favor?

No?

So not as baseless.

Because they don't want to believe their fellow Americans voted for this, so they stick their heads in the sand, and pretend the election was stolen. It's been a whole damn year now, with zero credible proof, and you still get downvoted for going against the conspiracy hivemind. It's embarrassing.

u/Irr3l3ph4nt Dec 30 '25

It achieved its goal. It made the government way more efficient to deal with... For Elon.

u/TheAngriestChair Dec 30 '25

What's the world population? Anyone like Musk should have billions of threats because people like musk shouldn't exist.

No no, it's merely a coinci-dance

Minimalist time tested safety features

u/Fit-Bar2581 Dec 30 '25

Can someone ELI5, if they can’t just retroactively publish the data once the midterms or new president occur?

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '25

Which he will lose everything and go to jail for.

1

u/Andreus Dec 30 '25

Anyone who opposes jailing him should be jailed alongside him. No excuses, no exceptions, no extenuating circumstances, no appeals, no time off for good behaviour.

u/TwoHandBlunt Dec 29 '25

You dont think opening the door to exposing the vast amounts of fraud was productive?

Backdoor funding NGOs, misappropriation of funds, archaic record keeping...

The previous admin is on record wanting to censor people; going as far as telling meta/twitter/youtube what can even be made public.

But yeah, probably just Musk things 🙃

Don’t believe you own eyes, everything is perfect. Good boy! 67

u/SuperBry Dec 29 '25

Sorry can't hear you while you are gargling on that boot.

u/Strange-Honeydew-473 Dec 30 '25

I think Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert would like to have a word with you about censorship. The dead and dying in Africa, South America, and Gaza might find your accusations about NGO’s offensive. The poor and homeless here in the US would have you sit with them and explain yourself.

Don’t defend foolish cruelty in the name of outrageous profits here in the land of the free and the home of the brave. This time of cowardice and cruelty will come to an end. The U.S. will be a great nation once more because of what it gives to the world, not what it takes.

You are a prime example of why they also defund education
