Summary
Elon Musk is distancing himself from sweeping federal job cuts linked to DOGE, blaming agency heads—not DOGE—responsible for mass layoffs, including the announced 70,000 job cut at Veterans Affairs.
Despite claiming DOGE’s role as merely advisory, Musk admitted to mistakes in private meetings with GOP lawmakers and pledged to correct them.
Some cuts have already been reversed, with a Trump administration memo clarifying agencies are not required to fire probationary employees (new hires).
i don’t think trump knows this is the plan, but it is the plan. it’s very convenient having a billionaire whose visa can be revoked
Supposedly he was naturalized in 2002. He’s not here on a visa.
I mean, Trump now apparently can do whatever now, so I guess he could just deport him. But not legally or by revoking a visa.
