Summary
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy’s new “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) began recruiting “high-IQ small-government revolutionaries” willing to work 80+ hours per week with no pay to help slash federal spending.
Appointed by President-elect Donald Trump, the panel is tasked with recommending spending cuts, regulatory rollbacks, and agency restructuring by July 4, 2026.
Musk and Ramaswamy advocate for drastic measures, including cutting grants to nonprofits and potential mass layoffs.
feels like im playing plague inc. and these are all joke news
So… if I apply for a super high IQ job that’s unpaid, does that prove I’m under qualified?
Yeah the real intelligence test is whether or not you apply, and if you do, you’ve already failed.
Can this department kick it off by eliminating itself, since it’s a wish.com version of https://www.gao.gov/
It’s really great that his government efficiency department is in fact duplicative. An excellent microcosm
Win a grift by pretending you are an idiot
Your opponent is Elon Musk
Man that leopards are gonna get so fat on conservative faces.
They will have to sub contract out some of their face eating.
What an idiot. Just ask daddy for a small 1 million dollar loan. Its just that easy.
They are calling it DOGE? 🙄🙄🙄
100% Musk’s idea. Because he doesn’t think the other 8 billion humans on the planet are real people and none of this is of any real consequence to him.
Co leader Vivek Ramswamy is the founder of DOGE coin.
TIL. I always assumed doge coin was his thing since he seemed to promote so much. Either way, these guys are insufferable nerds.
Edit: I just read he actually referred to himself as the “Dogefather.” Fucking cringe.
Trumps staff already beat you by prefacing that only super high-IQ people understand the humor
Also, fuck that guy.
Edit: and by ‘that guy’ I mean Ramaswamy. Fuck Musk too.
No X in name, so not Leons idea.
Good grief. It’s like he asked ChatGPT “how do I hire people suffering from the Dunning-Kruger Effect?”
Dear meme-lords: I need something with much more facepalm than the Picard one. A “super facepalm” if you will. Thank you.
That was my reaction almost exactly. It’s like Dunning-Kruger the job description.
At least they’re too cheap and lazy to properly push their fascist takeover.
Fun idea: Flood their contact addresses with fake applications and fake credentials like certificates with high scores on made-up IQ tests or Mensa membership cards.
There are oxymorons and then there is musk, the oxyless moron
He really believes it’s real.
Oh it’s real. It may not be a cabinet position but it can still be a committee.
I think you might be the one who needs to accept reality.
Shit is about to get bonkers.
They will make their money by fleecing the government of course.
Department of Government Efficiency is the name of the department that ends up involved in creating Soylent green or some crazy human organ harvesting thing.
This sets off all sorts of red flags that bother the shit out of me. Like I’ll take boring dystopia over human slaughterhouses TYVM
You can’t just make a department. Sorry Leon, only maga morons believe that. The actual government and CONSTITUTION work differently than what you think…
Aw, that’s cute…
Tragedy or comedy? Why not both?
