It’s the same Elon Musk minion who was fired from an internship for allegedly leaking sensitive information to a competitor.

    It’s okay. All the 19-year-olds I’ve ever met in my life, including myself, have been highly responsible people who never, ever do incredibly stupid shit all the time.

        I can’t speak for anyone else, but I would put “didn’t do shit at all” when you’re 19 and a whole world of possibilities is open to you in the category of “stupid” as well. Congratulations, we’re all members of the “19 and an idiot” club.

      You’ll have to be more specific about which DOGE member you’re talking about.

    How does Elon Musk meet a 19 year old? There’s a non-zero chance they met on 4chan, isn’t there?

      I’m sure a lot of these names are people who were courted by think-tanks like the Heritage Foundation. A lot of them pay TONS to send middle class and rich kids to good colleges all to get them near positions of power - then they saw Elon randomly walking into government departments with valuable data and said ‘well shit let’s just give these kids who were gonna be coffee gophers for Lauren Boebert to him instead’.

    Reminds me of when I was working in a restaurant fresh out of highschool and they made me a manager after everyone slowly quit. The best part about having someone as young as this in a position of power is not waiting to see IF they fuck up, but WHEN they fuck up. Only thing is, this kid is in charge of way more than just cooking someone’s dinner.
