Thank god I don’t work for the federal government

BTC > DOGE despite what Buck’s day trading tips may say.
At least one TugTard should be contacting a headhunter tomorrow.
Per Vivek own guidance it should be a task force and not a department.
Departments last forever and twist their original intent.
DOE, ATF, the other Department of Ed, etc.

One week in and you're all ready to surrender
Best we don’t even try I guess.
This was front and center on Vivek’s pitch and what gave him a name. If he can’t deliver here then that might be it for him. No one can honestly say what is the right number of Federal employees. Test and learn. Over cut and then backfill where you went too far. It’s akin to testing diminishing returns on advertising spend. You want to find where the flat part on the curve is. If you can’t find that flat part than keep spending until you do, it might be further out than you think.

I'm 100% about that.
But he literally said it needs to be a task force so it doesn't end up like the department of education.
Can't wait for the dems to be in charge of DOGE and use it to raid homes still using gas stoves instead of electric in 2036.
Are we sure it won't be a task force? I've heard both
Trump loves names so maybe they just wanted the acronym.
Yes Trump is careless with language

And gas stoves Washington voters agreed to the state taking their gas appliances

They need to save on gas for their “therapy” chambers.
What I would attack first is all of the money that is going from state department to all of the NGO’s that are actively working against the will of the people. All of the state sponsored censorship panels, Atlantic Council, all of the environmental NGO’s that take tax payer money and use that money to sue the government or business. Gut every penny there.
DOJ may want to sniff around a few of the larger “immigration” NGOs to see how much human trafficking there is at present, and whether all of it is legal. There have been complaints so it wouldn’t be without merit.
They've said they have an end date etc. I'm pretty satisfied with what's been put out so far.
Ron Paul’s point is valid "It doesn't matter if they are efficient or not if the government shouldn't be doing it in the first place."
LIPO, best shot we've had in my lifetime to see meaningful shrinkage of government.

Fuck. I got pulled back into the Tug.
But at the brothel, I’m in charge of process improvement efforts and modernizing our systems…so this topic is my jam!
I’m both excited and terrified of this task force/department. As @GrundleStiltzkin and @UW_Doog_Bot have alluded to, it definitely has the potential for becoming yet another government bureaucracy.
I’m also concerned that they’ll cut muscle instead of fat.
Few random things going through my head:
In terms of headcount, the federal government size has remained relatively flat for a while, which is interesting when you consider that population growth of the United States in the past few decades. (State and local governments have grown by quite a bit to compensate I suppose, but I those are inefficient as fuck too.)
There’s also going to be a wave of these employees retiring soon, as the average age of most federal employees is pushing 50…and it doesn’t seem like there’s a big push to backfill some of these roles. (The youngsters have little interest in working for Uncle Sam, when our best and brightest can make a lot more money developing some new app for FAANG.)
So are these two just going to do mass layoffs, or really take a look at how all these agencies are run? What does success look like?
