So weird how it matches Project 2025 to a tee, even though Trump clearly has nothing to do with that
If you fire all federal employees it still won’t com close to making the $2T in spending cuts they promise.
I welcome everyone to join /r/TheSecondTerm to keep track of everything to come, and to show every last one of his supporters who they voted for.
I just want to people know that these two literally cannot do anything. They cannot use the Supreme Court to do anything because they are a private commission that is not recognized by the Federal Government.
I’m fed up with these billionaires
It’s amazing to me that Trump campaigned on drastically increasing unemployment in America and people *still* voted for him.
They want to get the Civil Service Act tossed as unconstitutional, and the legal theory of Justice Roberts, the “unitary executive” agrees.
Fuk musk
OMG! They’re doing the things that they said they would do!
Something I do know, the government will shut down a number of times. They are really good at doing that.
I truly hate them, and everyone who voted, or didn’t vote, that led to this.
It’ll take him 4 years to truly crash the economy and enrich the 1%.
Then a Dem will win and inherit a terrible economy.
The dem will need 4 years to fix it, but the magas will blame the dem for the entire 4 years.
It’s like a giant “If you give a mouse a cookie…” problem.
“Musk and Ramaswamy have said they want to reduce annual federal spending by $500 billion — specifically, by cutting $1.5 billion earmarked for “international organizations,” another $535 million to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funds hundreds of locally owned public radio and television stations, and gutting $300 million for “progressive groups like Planned Parenthood.””
Great, those cuts will get them 0.5% of their goal.
I’ve seen this for 40 years – it is never, ever really about saving money. It’s about using “fiscal responsibility” as an excuse to cut things they don’t like.
*”The DOGE panel is expected to issue a final report on July 4, 2026 before it is disbanded.”*
Musk and Vivek will be gone 1-1.5 years before that. Musk being the first one.
For those reaching age and signing up for SS and Medicare, six month waiting line to speak with a SS employee to fill out forms. Twelve month waiting period to see if proper forms was filed. 90% failure rate, go back to step 1.
Repeat with all services from the Federal Government.
One day soon , “Hey guys good news, Walmart did a rollback on something I only kind of need ! Oh and they raised prices on everything else , including eggs. Oh well- Elon told me to expect hard times in the beginning , and he’s a kajillionaire so he knows what he’s talking about. I’ll just keep looking forward to eggs going back under $30 each.”
They are going after unions and its going to be a major leapord eating face party.
These guys are two huge pieces of shit.
Imagine being the richest human the world has ever had and spending that limited time on earth doing this sort of thing.
Like… he could be off spending his time doing the whole Mars thing… but instead he does this.
If you’re not old enough to remember the direct impacts of the 2009 crash…strap in. You’ll now understand why your parents were so terrified of what they’re going to do, except it’s *your* turn
I was unemployed from late 2010 to early 2013. I was *extremely lucky* to be renting from an elderly couple who weren’t hard pressed for money, so when it came to rent I was paying a little over $500/m. Unemployment was only paying $217/week. I became emaciated due to not being able to eat but once a day. When I was **FINALLY** able to get a job (bussing tables at 5.25/hr), I remember eating off of peoples plates because I was starving. Just before tossing their uneaten food in the trash; I was pick clean what I could since I knew I was going to eat for at least about 20hrs.
It’s about to be worse. Good luck because they’re dismantling the safety nets put in place to make sure…you…don’t…die.
Elon Musk is wholly exploitative and dumber than a box of rocks. I’m so sick of people thinking he is some kind of an ubermensch
This will end up biting Trump in the ass. It shifts power back to Congress from the Executive. It will mean more work for Congress to interpret pieces of legislation that used to be done by Federal bureaucrats.
Their assumption is that by removing the authority of federal bureaucrats to make supplementary rules, that the red tape will decrease. It won’t. It will mean the power will shift back to Congress. Congressional staff will balloon to x10 what it is now. Maybe even more, since if they are political appointees they won’t have the technical know how.
In the long run, it will mean more lawsuits against the federal government. You basically take what was under the executive wing, and distribute it through the legislative and judicial systems. It will end up costing more.
It seems their plan is to restructure the military in a way that leaves only Trump supporters, ultimately weakening and dividing the U.S., which would surely please Putin.
Vivek Ramifuckstick was clear — the supreme court gave trump immunity for anything and everything he calls an “official act”
he won’t follow any laws, or any norms, and he can commit whatever crimes he wants with total impunity and full immunity.
did everyone forget Trump’s lawyer told Sonia Sotomayor that yes, ordering the military to murder his political opponent could be considered an official act subject to immunity??? am I taking crazy pills??
When I was in the Air Force in the 90’s it was well known that anyone could call the FWA hotline if you noticed fraud, waste or abuse. Do other federal agencies not have something similar?
This is just another grift by the “law and order” party.
There goes the unemployment rate. This will be Trump’s fault.
No kingdom lasts forever. That’s the destiny of all kingdoms.
Has there ever been a general federal workers strike before?
I feel like just nobody in DC or otherwise should show up for work on Jan 21
No cooks or drivers, no clerks or couriers, no administration or assistants, no directors or deputies, no guards or IT, nobody on the diplomatic corps, just nobody to do any actual work
Just let trump and his handful of cabinet loons argue about how to do stuff indefinitely with nobody around to follow orders
This is Russia literally dismantling the United States from within the White House. We are fucked
You thought the collapse of the USSR was bad. Wait until this shit pops off
Hey, Democratic lawmakers, it’s time to start fighting dirty or GTFO and make room for someone who will. The Trump admin is declaring war on its citizens. They forgot that they work for us.
What’s a shame is Dems are going to have to spend another 8 years cleaning up the mess they are about to leave behind.
That will do wonders for unemployment.
Way to go you dumb shit ass Trump supporters.
Firing a half million people whose jobs you have no idea 1) what they are 2) how they work 3) why they’re necessary and 4) know where skeletons are buried, probably won’t have the outcome they expect here.
Both for the administration and for the people who voted for it.
Oh, you want 500,000 qualified people having to look for a private industry job. Oh, one like yours? And they’re more qualified? And maybe desperate for any payment because the job market shit the bed? Well, that’s interesting.
Good luck.
I’m hoping their hubris will be their downfall.

Now, I don’t mean to sound like I’m the kind of business genius that Musk and Ramaswamy are. But by my math, $1.5 billion + $535 million + $300 million comes up pretty far fucking short of $500 billion.
Bloated, ego driven billionaires who are concerned that normal people, just trying to get through their day to day existence, should have a boot on their necks. Like, who the fuck are these people? Why can’t they just enjoy their breakfast and shut the fuck up?
I’ll never understand it.
