Summary
DOGE staffers Tyler Hassen and Bryton Shang tried pressuring the Bureau of Reclamation to open a California water pump to aid Los Angeles during January’s wildfires, though the system couldn’t reach the city.
When denied, they flew there to do it themselves but failed due to maintenance and access restrictions.
Critics called DOGE a “slapstick operation of 20-somethings they’re seeing as whiz kids but have zero knowledge.”
Trump later ordered dam releases, flooding farmland. Critics called DOGE’s actions reckless and uninformed.
Imagine Bryton and Tyler showing up at your workplace in the middle of a crisis to take selfies and tweet about how they fixed your problems.
Remember how Musk talked about some absurd submarine design to safe the schoolkids that got trapped in a flooded cave in Thailand, like 7 years ago?
Should have been warning sign for everyone who supported any of his businesses and political positions after that.
It feels like the plot of an episode of Parks and Rec, but like, stupider, and not funny at all
