Elon Musk to lead new efficiency department named after his favourite cryptocurrency

We're living in the Idiocracy. It's not the future, its now.

...and slash regulations. I know this has always been their goal but damn. He doesn't even need anything more, he has almost everything money can buy, and he thought, "ok, I have to try to buy the government".

Are you fucking kidding me? The US is ruled by memes now. How long until they reach out to Scumbag Steve or Success Kid?

The drug adled guy who caused Twitter to lose 85% of its value and to become a racist hate filled Russian propaganda machine?

This should be good.

Creating a second department to do something there already is a department for so you can have funni name is peak efficiency.

Let me blurt it out here, people: you are looking at your next president. And I am aware that, currently, by law, a non american can not be elected for office.

yet

Wtf is up with this timeline?

50+% America, you'll get what you wanted. Also those who didn't vote will get what they deserve.

Just bulldoze the whitehouse and erect a circus tent

I feel like I fell in a parallel universe with the dumbest possible timeline sometime in the mid 2010s

Being in a functional union was nice while it lasted.

Just gonna be years and years of crypto scams headed up by the Federal Govt.

We're gonna do an Argentina.

Next up. We're renaming dollars to x-coin.

Isn't this kinda a conflict of interest

Congratulations America. You put the reins of power in the hands of toddlers coming up with cool names for made up comic book superheroes.

Unrelated, but can I block keywords on the desktop site, too? The less I see of this fucker the better

Someone do something to this fuck

The man who's cars kill people, should be in charge of efficiency. Perfect. Everything goes so much better when massive numbers of people die. Melon Head Musk is such a waste of DNA.

Tesla mogul will head up Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) with Vivek Ramaswamy, to ‘dismantle bureaucracy and slash regulations’

Set the rivers on fire again!

I'm sorry, I'm not a fan of the man, but this absolutely MUST come with the title of Lord

XXX DOGE Lord ^{has a certain ring}

Kabosu didn't die for this

How many senators or house members do we need to lobby to stop this?

More importantly, how do I get into a position to even begin attempting to lobby them?

And "efficiency" directly translates to "maximizing human exploitation" for Elon. I mean holy crap what has the US elected themselves into?

DEPORT HIM, FFS!!!!

Bureaucracy is good at one thing; making sure nothing slips by.

Elon wants deniability.

I am sure he came up with the name

Oh god Lemmy is going to have such a meltdown. They already have a hate boner for him.

I really hope the next 4 Years will be hell for USA, especially for the "small people"

Are you telling me it's a good thing I still own 100 doge coin and 1,000,000 Shiba Inu?

Never thought I'd say that out loud.
