And the second you move in a way they don't like, their friendly welcoming will immediately turn into a full assertion of their power that was always there, simmering and waiting to be used.

Not only did the ex-husband absolutely turn her in, but this also goes to show that no matter how close you embed yourself into this faction of the government as a "non-member", you can even be married into it, you are still vulnerable and will never be fully welcome.
“After Ferreira was detained, Dos Santos Rodrigues said Michael Leavitt Sr. and his father, Bob Leavitt, reached out to her.”
“‘They just kept saying, ‘Tell her to self-deport,’” she recalled. “Self-deport to where? Brazil is not her home.’” www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/26/m...

The real poverty line is around $140k for a family of four, but it’s perversely hard to get there:
“Every dollar you earn climbing from $40,000 to $100,000 triggers benefit losses that exceed your income gains. You are literally poorer for working harder.”

Did you really read this whole long thread? Wow! Go spread the word: DOGE isn't actually over.
The "DOGE is gone" articles are clickbait but this one gets it closer to the truth: DOGE is not gone, it just claims to have "no centralized leadership" anymore -- in other words, its leadership is hiding in an attempt to avoid blame.
DOGE no longer has ‘centralized leadership’ under White House tech team, personnel head says
The team that was altered to house DOGE — formerly the U.S. Digital Service — is also still doing its own technology work across agencies.

They're not esoteric. Any of the conspiracy theories that shaped DOGE's mission can be found easily by browsing Twitter or Facebook for a few minutes. Apparently billionaire brains get cooked by social media in exactly the same way poor people brains do.

Anyway, this is just my experience as a software engineer; I haven't even touched the stuff DOGE did to public health or foreign aid. But from a distance it looks pretty clearly motivated by the same swirl of anti-government, anti-minority conspiracy theories.

DOGE stole the phrase "waste, fraud, and abuse" from government regulations, where it is used to prohibit corrupt contracts, and inverted its meaning:
They use it to mean a leftist conspiracy imagined to engage in the financial corruption that DOGE is actually doing by self-dealing gov contracts

They also hunted down all grants that went to any purpose containing "LGBTQ" or similar words. I think it is pretty clear this is the brainchild of a conspiracy theorist who wants to "follow the money" to find out how the imaginary cabal of perpetually triggered leftists gets funded.
The majority of DOGE's "work" is to use LLMs to search federal grants for the keywords "LGBTQ," "BIPOC," and similar, and then to cancel those grants.
They are targeting minorities in the most literal, automated way. The outcomes of this are all over their own website:

I don't think I have to explain that hunting down every instance of "LGBTQ" and "nonbinary" from all government software is the result of a homophobic conspiracy theory. It's not subtle.

I've taken a deep dive into the DOGE bro's open source software code commits to verify they never wrote (or even oversaw) any code beyond culture war messaging. It's all trivial stuff like this: taking out the "nonbiary" option on some form.

Although DOGE occasionally pretended to modernize some computer system, the only non-vaporware changes to software they ever oversaw (mostly they didn't write the code themselves, just leaned on someone else to do so) were to remove "DEI" stuff from government websites
