But this isn’t legal. Doge is not a validly created department because it wasn’t created by congress. Elon musk was appointed by the president after congressional advise and consent. The termination has violated employment law pass by congress specifically to shield the federal employees from partisan attacks and influence. The fact that the federal bureaucracy has been a non-partisan professional workforce has been on of the greatest strengths in the world. What musk and trump are doing will introduce corruption in government by turning it into a spoil system. They are making new hires swear allegiance to trump directly not the constitution. Also not legal. And when they’ve lost in court they have actively defied the rulings. Oh and that’s after lying about the fact that Elon’s running things to make their position more favorable. Shall I go on?
