Elon says DOGE needs twice as many people to tell others they have too many people
The world's richest toddler is fighting bureaucratic bloat by doubling his anti-bloat department.
Elon Musk, who's currently watching his car company's stock perform its best impression of a Cybertruck sliding down a hill, revealed on Fox Business that his DOGE goon squad might soon balloon from 100 to 200 employees.
It's the same logic that gave us "free speech absolutism" right before banning journalists who hurt his feelings.
Because when you're a billionaire with the temperament of a toddler, rules about practicing what you preach only apply to the essential civil servants you just laid off.

Ironically, if you were taking a serious look at all the possible ways to make the government more efficient and reduce waste and fraud, you would need thousands of employees with tens of thousands of years of expertise among them, not just a few dozen more young cowboys and their support staff.
(And maybe instead of naming that organization after a stupid meme, you might call it something like -- oh, let me take a wild stab at it -- The Government Accountability Office. Which we already have, but often don't heed because pork and lobbying. So the most efficient headcount for the new, duplicative thing would be zero.)
Christ, when is this asshole's 15 minutes up?
