PermalinkMusk for Not 'Showing Up' to DOGE
Subcommittee Meetings
Feb 20
Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett called
out President Donald Trump's ally
Elon Musk for the actions of the
Department of Government Efficiency
(DOGE), which has been cutting
funding for government programs.
"Elon, if you're watching, come
through, boo, 'cause you haven't
shown up to the DOGE subcommittee
yet," she said during an interview
with MSNBC host Ali Velshi Tuesday
night.
Crockett and Velshi discussed Musk's
perceived role in the spread of
misinformation, recalling how Musk
and Trump perpetuated a false
narrative in which they stated that
President Joe Biden spent millions
of dollars on condoms to send to
Palestinians or members of Hamas
in Gaza.
"It's not even just nonsense, it's
just that they're idiots," Crockett
said, noting that DOGE also fired
employees tasked with protecting
the nation's nuclear stockpile,
later struggling to reinstate
those same employees as they were
terminated outside of the typical
process.
