2 DOGE staffers say 'no' regrets for others losing income, didn't reduce the deficit: Depositions

This is apart of the reason they recruit young men. Very ready to manipulate. It's telling that they're being deposed and their leadership is nowhere to be found.
Yup. They’re just thrilled to be on some billionaire’s radar. They don’t care it’ll the qualification is that they can be manipulated into doing the dirty work.
Being young isn’t an excuse. The people who are like this are easier to manipulate than others. Critical thinking skills are lacking and being manipulated that easily shows how they’re not that intelligent in the first place. I would bet that the people DOGE recruited were r...
And I bet these guys consider themselves “free thinkers”. Guess the irony they became the very thing they sought to destroy is lost on them. Fraudulent, wasteful and abusive traitors with no remorse. All under the directive of their idol, an apartheid nepo-baby with massive US...
Force them to work for nothing for 45 days. They can get paid at day 55.
lol, mommy and daddy already pay their expenses and gave them a credit card
Make them work for pennies on the dollar from PRISON.
These kids come from money, likely they never have to work
They could have fired all federal employees, canceled all grants and even abolished all federal agencies and it wouldn’t have made a dent in the national debt. Yet Elon and the administration made so many Americans believe these things were the reason we’re in such a huge ho...
100 percent accurate. No one can claim to be serious about deficit reduction until they look at entitlements and military spending.
Yea, it's crazy where the money actually goes. Look at the big DoD, killing just F35 would met their savings targets. Instead, they killed entire agencies, like USAID, which was less money than the DoD spent on their use or lose change at the end of the year.
This point bothers me to no end. We all know this to be true, and yet a year later, with proof that the national debt is still spiraling out of control, a bunch of Americans still likely think DOGE did something useful. These depositions should follow and haunt those who par...
Just goes to show. Their goal was to steal data and put Americans out of work. They accomplished their goal. Save America money? No. In the end they cost America jobs and money. But it sounded good.
Save “America” means saving the white cis-het ownership-class male’s place on top of the hierarchy
It did not sound good. The federal gov’t was stable and had been for decades. ‘Save money’ was propaganda fed on a steady drip for, also, decades. I know it’s unconstitutional but god damn do I sometimes think testing for voting rights should be a thing. Or making voting compu...
Let's narrow that down a bit. Elon wanted to steal our data to train Grok and his other projects. The cost cutting was just a cover. Trump gave Elon the country's data in exchange for rigging voting machines and election interference.
Elon's [useful idiots](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_idiot). Good job boys, you saved nothing. Edit: adding link because multiple people don't seem to know what it means.
You mean destroyed the government and the lives of people dedicated to their work.
Of course the real goal of DOGE was to the cripple the agencies investigating Musk and his companies.
EUI's I like that acronym
In a sane world these kids would be pariahs at the very least and would struggle to hold down a decent job for the rest of their lives when this shitshow is over. There should be consequences for destroying American lives. But we all know that’s just a dream we won’t achieve. ...
No surprise unfortunately, hopefully when the pendulum swings these guys find their way to a prison cell.
Prison and also their money acts like a refund to federal workers and contractors for all the damage and harm done.
Each of these these creepy little twerps need to be prosecuted and imprisoned.
Elon and Donnie Huge Shoes included.
Kids with no life experience. Their opinions mean jack shit to me.
So basically “I was just following orders.” Looking forward to seeing what happens to these two (among others) after the midterms.
It's just a video game to them.
These pieces of shit need to rot in prison.
Fuck these doge goons, but this is a perfect example of why you should ultimately resist illegal orders. When it comes time to pay the piper, it's you that'll get throwN under the bus, not leadership.
These kids are like the Hitler youth.
Now a judge has ordered the depositions taken off the internet because of feared harassment. I say sure, as long as LGBT, minorities, women and all the other “woke” demographics they purged are free from harassment also.
This needs more upvotes. Why do they get to be free of harassment when their job was literally conducting and endorsing harassment of others.
Truly the worst among us.
Did anyone else interview with Cavanaugh? I met with him and it felt like I was auditioning to keep my job, after many successful years in my role already. That happened after a couple contracts I managed were terminated for DEI. Clown show.
Cool. No worries or care for what happens to these kids in response.
You can tell from the interview that they still don’t take this seriously. Super smug.
The intention was never to reduce anything. They wanted to get anyone not loyal out of the jobs and replace them with loyalists.
An example needs to be made of these fuckers. Legally of course.
I wonder if they’re always looking over their shoulder. That’d be a shitty way to live.
It's our job to make sure they are for the rest of their lives.
These guys deserve bannable consequences
Why is the thumbnail a pic of a child
Because he is the one that get GS 15 pay right out of college
Because that child is one of the DOGE staff.
These pieces of shit belong in prison.
“We did absolutely nothing except hurt good public servants and we have no regrets because we’re sociopaths ”. Fixed that headline for you.
Hearing someone say they have “no regrets” about people losing their income is honestly hard to stomach. Budget cuts or reforms might be necessary sometimes, but behind those numbers are real people and real families trying to get by. If the goal was to reduce the deficit and ...
The invincibility of these sociopathic, youth-minded staffers is coming to an end one way or another.
I hope DOGE employees, everyone involved, and those who supported this have the lives they deserve.
They should be held responsible for the 500,000 deaths after USAID was killed. Genocidal psychopaths.
You know how protestors were banging drums outside of hotels where ICE were staying? We need the same energy for these assholes.
Really hoping a lot of people go to jail next administration. At least.
They’ll probably get promotions.
They both look like fucking serial killers.
Indeed. They both look like the type that enjoyed torturing small animals as kids.
Anyone have an updated link to the deposition videos?
Not sure how old this guy is, but in my 15-25 year old period I would double down on things instead of admitting I was wrong. I am in my mid 30s now and sometimes laugh at myself how arrogant I was. Not trying to downplay what he is doing, but I also blame some of this to mon...
> Not sure how old this guy is, but in my 15-25 year old period I would double down on things instead of admitting I was wrong. It's one thing to do that while you are BSing in a bar. It's another to do that during a sworn deposition. How many times did you do that during ...
Daddy Elons little sociopaths.
Didn’t even use Grok 🤣
What goes around comes around. They'll end up in corporate America which guarantees they'll get shitcanned from their job for no reason at some point.
Soulless eyes in these two
Sociopaths
All that money that they saved just to be burned in 15 hours at the start of the Iran conflict.
I hope when horrible Trump and his cult are gone - these snot nosed losers who show no remorse, regret nor empathy - are arrested and go to jail. Let’s see how arrogant they are once Trump is gone.
Still can’t believe we let a modern day Mr. Burns run the government for a few months.
Those two don't like they even grew facial hair yet. They have no idea what's going on to make things work.
No regrets for deaths either
They are in the same room Jeffrey Epstein was interrogated in.
This boy has never had a single fight in his life and it shows.
Disrespectfully, f*ck those losers.
JAIL
Elon is not getting deposed?
It's only a matter of time before every DOGE affiliated staffer is rooted out and fired. It'll be a glorious day when it happens.
Mass incompetence. If you look back at the Clinton administration, they made cuts over a year or two, using commissions and thoughtful planning and debate. That approach alone shows wisdom, experience and leadership. We will feel the effects of these reckless decisions for yea...
* Vice President JD Vance has publicly advocated for the rehiring of a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) staffer who resigned following the exposure of past racist social media posts. Vance argued against letting "stupid social media activity" ruin the career of the 2...
go away, chatGPT
But you understand the point.
Easily manipulated beta males and incels taking out their anger on others because of the black void deep in their souls. Don’t hurt your neck looking over your shoulder for the rest of your sad life

I wish all of you with imposter syndrome 1/3 of this privilege and 2/3 of this audacity. May every check clear in your account.
Unfortunately foreign media reign them as early prodigies. Pretty much every form of non english media I listened to praised them for what they did and all of trump policies. They say non American citizens were voting, if they were, they are actually attacking their own base.
And sold our social security numbers so why are we paying taxes?????? Why
What they did was illegal. Doesn't matter if trump ordered it. Congress is responsible for funding (or in this case, defunding) the government, which of course, includes all departments. DOGE staffers better get their passports ready because if they stay in the US, there's a...
Are we SURE the overall goal of DOGE was just to hack into everyone’s data and not to save federal government money? I see that here a lot and I haven’t found any proof of it. I think they really wanted to save money but went about it in a really haphazard way.
Republicans showed America how to fix the government. YOU'RE WELCOME! ;-) \*Hey, instead of taking action against an uncomfortable comment online, try phoning and visiting the offices of your Republican representatives, especially those up for re-election this midterm, and p...
