Damn REAL!
Now that Musk HAS pushed thousand’s of people out of jobs ?
And drawn backlashes from Trump Cabinet/Agency Head ‘s, Judges, States, Lawmakers, Unions and Media?
The knuckleheads are going to try to sell themselves as the ‘Good Guys’ in trying to take the Untied State Government Tech Savvy?
We see them as auditors and tech weinies that do NOT have ANY Idea of what they are doing except ruining people’s lives….
You Know?
The Human Factor?
“I think everyone there knows they need to do a better job of telling the story,” the person said. “And that’s going to be a big component of the next phase of DOGE, leaning into storytelling and showing the wins and not having the story told for them.”
Chief among their plans: Using their tech expertise to build apps and websites to help federal workers and Americans trying to access government services, according to two people familiar with DOGE internal workings. Airbnb co-founder Joe Gebbia, a close friend of Musk’s who was responsible for the company’s inviting look, has been recruited to help lead the effort.
Even this has invited criticism, however. Musk has repeatedly criticized Social Security, one of the government’s most popular programs, and DOGE staffers have been working inside the agency. But an effort to give the Social Security website and services a user-friendly digital overhaul was already underway at the U.S. Digital Service — until Musk pushed out the team working on it, according to Mina Hsiang, who led the USDS before the department became the U.S. DOGE Service in January.
“When you fire people who have deep understandings of the mission you want to accomplish, you’re sort of starting from zero,” she said….

…a growing portion of the public sees DOGE as callous and undisciplined, a narrative reinforced by news reports about fired military veterans, hours-long waits to file retirement claims and threatened benefits for 9/11 survivors. Almost 50 percent of Americans “disapprove” of Elon Musk’s work within the federal government, versus 34 percent that approve, according to a recent Washington Post-Ipsos poll….
…
Musk and his team, by contrast, have shown willingness to prioritize speed and coding skills, the person said.
“Anyone can make something look nice,” the employee said. But following the correct protocols to ensure government systems don’t break “is a lot more complicated. And I don’t think they care about it at all.”….
Note….
Who checks DOGE’s numbers if the there NO ONE checking Them?
