DOGE disbanded a team that was dedicated to making the government more efficient — something Elon Musk claims he wants to promote.

“It’s chaotic, and it feels like it’s chaotic on purpose,” a former 18F team worker said.

Hundreds of people gathered on Saturday at national parks from California to Maine to protest the Trump administration’s firing of at least 1,000 National Park Service employees last month.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:
18f.org
We're not done yet | 18F

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

Makes me so ashamed to be from Kansas. This man represents ALL of Kansas, yet clearly cannot handle when actual Kansans question him. And how rude can a Senator be before we do something? These were people who voted for Sen. Marshall asking questions, and even if they hadn't, they're still Kansans.
NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

that 81% of Americans DO NOT TRUST PUTIN??? Are we just supposed to allow her to continue to deflect EVERYTHING reporters ask?? Can anyone give proof to her claims against Ukraine?
March 2, 2025 at 3:25 PM
Sick of watching people like Gabbard evade answering direct questions and giving BS answers that make no sense. Who the F*** does she think she is to deny what 81%of American people feel? Just because her head is so far up Putin's a**, and she's licking Trump's shoes, how does she justify (1/2)

Rep. Jason Crow: “The purge of senior officers at DOD is deeply troubling, but purging JAG officers worries me the most.

“JAG officers interpret law for our commanders. They help determine what's lawful and constitutional.

“Replacing these military lawyers with Trump loyalists is so dangerous.”

Donald Trump promised to let Elon Musk self-police his conflicts of interest.

The result?

Those investigating his companies have been fired.

Cases against his companies have been dismissed.

The corrupt self-dealing is staggering.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Dems should propose a law that immediately requires every fed agency to post on @bsky.app account, every outlay with a detailed description, $, and a link to existing gov sites with in depth details

Rather than trying to keep Elon out, pre-empt him so he cant miss characterize spending.
