I don't think they understand how dumb they sound when they say crap like this. Who is he appealing too?

Yes, we need more of these

I want to know how Musk knows the net worth of federal workers.

Now that’s a healthy type of “both sides-ing.”

Is Musk going to go after all the crooked Republican Senators who were bought to vote for tRUMP's crooked cabinet picks?

The government is buying Tesla ‘armored’?vehicles:400million$ worth. Tesla sales have dropped precipitously since President Musk took office.

😡😡😡

😢😢

And it kills me everytime I hear someone say and he's doing all this work with DOGE for free.

No fucking self awareness. Or he thinks we don't know.😠

Me: Samuel Alito Doggerel: no, not that government employee

I think 20 billion is so far below what he actually made over the years.

Musk’s companies would have failed without the government. SpaceX signed an initial, company-saving $1.6 billion contract with NASA in 2008. Tesla received a critical $465 million loan from DOE in 2010. But who needs government?

I can't take this fucking clown! Look at a GS or FWS paychart on OPM. Feds do NOT get into public service to get rich. Fuck Elon!

He knows.

I like to know which federal workers he is referring to.

People who spend fifty years in civil service literally should become wealthy. Working for the public absolutely should be a middle-class profession.

He doesn't want people to be wealthy?

No one is getting rich through corruption, except Musk, Trump, and government contractors.

I think he’s in jail awaiting trial 🍄

5 stars. No comment

Probably closer to $30B if you take tax breaks, subsidies and direct benefits into account.

Democrats should be shouting this all day every day. Frankly, they should be running national ads.

He speaks for himself.

Musk's teenage fanboys are getting paid $350k a week each to wreck the government's computer system, so yeah....

Every accusation a confession.

Elon & his merry band of DIGITAL BROWNSHIRTS. We are witnessing an electronic coup. Fight back! Confront the incels. Picket their lodgings. Write "Douche" on every Tesla you see. Egg Elon. Harass Fox News employees. Shout down GOP members. Protest and, most of all, shame those who have no shame.

And federal workers are not getting rich.

I feel like it'll still fly past people who can't read that well, like MAGAs

Inherited and stole…

MAGA are so dumb that they voted for Trump so that he could install "the deep state" and pump "the swamp" full of toxic waste.

Elon Musk, former illegal immigrant from South Africa has received the most benefits from USA subsidies than any Americans! Elon Musk becomes the richest person from getting USA taxpayers 💰! Elon Musk = The biggest welfare recipient in the US history! 🤬

I am a federal worker. I know exactly zero wealthy federal workers.

Let Elon decide whether rocket launch technology is more important than cancer research or school lunches! What could go wrong 🙄 Conflicts of interest law (18 U.S.C. § 208) prohibits govt employees from taking official action that could impact their financial interests (under 5 C.F.R. § 2635.402).

Very 'Look over there!'.

Musk 👇 openomb.org/file/1141006...

Marjorie Taylor Greene got PPP .

You can't spell "felon" without "elon".

Like him? He certainly isn’t turning down those government contracts.

Oh, the hypocracy...

And that too is more than I get. I wish! I was a stay-at-home mom for many years and never worked very high paying jobs.

Irony is dead

Well, it lets the disgusting lie of his claim go unchallenged.

Says the guy that just got 400 b in contracts and now gets a fee every time the government types a word.

Is that prick talking about himself?

What is the wealthy ‘line’ for the richest guy on the planet, anyway? No civil servant is making anything close to that. But congress…if they weren’t millionaires going in, they certainly are when they leave.

Woulda flipped it, but better than most

The highest paid Federal Workers don't much more than $200,000 a year. This is such bullshit, but the American public has totally bought the "government is the problem" lie while corporations and billionaires rob the country blind and get obscenely rich.

Our government just prints dollars Tax payers don’t actually create our money supply Our government and banks create our money supply

This is actually a good example of a headline that provides the necessary context. I would also like to see headlines like this in the German media.

There are no federal workers getting wealthy on their pay checks.

Hmm. Could it be employees like "big balls"? On the doge website, he won employee of the month.🤔

Musky is just a regular moron

I have been a federal worker for 20 years! I am not rich! We are regular working ppl who care about our country and our community! This shit makes me sick because he is a literal parasite feeding off the government teet!

Fortune is so fed up with Musk & Trump, and they don't care who knows it.

$ 8M per day and going forward.

Self-awareness is not his strong suit.

Fork Off Elon!

Elon needs to self combust.

Finally

He fucking lies! Media will you fucking say this already!

That's about all there is to say about that. Spot on. (Though this is the 2nd best headline to "Headless Body in Topless Bar" NY Post 03-25-2008)

Defund SpaceX, Starlink, & Tesla. Nationalize them, imprison musk.

What he means is under the new mafia only the MuskRAT can defraud the orange don and the government and profit from it. Anyone who wants a democracy will be removed.

I think I see another media outlet that just made 'the list'.

📌

Wow—he should know!

HE SHOULD TALK!@!!!!!!!

A even better headline has as a subject people’s actions, not things they say.

So he's proving the point? He's on the payroll?

“local arsonist blames fire department for series of suspicious fires”

Skum the unabashed and accomplished liar!

Exactly... msm needs to start making EVERY headline like this...

@nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com Anyone taking notes in your newsrooms?

$20 Billion... So Far. It will be in the trillions by the time this bs is over.

It's this years Welfare Queen riding in a Cadillac with multiple identities.

$8 million a DAY! JFC.

ONE

It's all just lies, bullshit, and more lies.

The article is worth the read

And millions of Americans believe this crap

Found the biggest waste of resources on the planet.

Federal workers, working for the people in a service role while Musk sucks the wealth from anyone and everyone. Or axes their assistance to let them suffer and possibly die.

Musk is so full of 💩. “Neither Musk nor President Trump offered any evidence of corruption or improper enrichment that might explain federal employees allegedly getting rich off their government roles, and DOGE did not respond to Fortune’s request for examples.”

Lie. Give no evidence. Autocrat, how to do it.

🎶every accusation is a confession🎶

That’s a good article. Few journalists are able to distinguish between projections and appropriations, for instance, even when it’s written all over the document. It’s super frustrating, as someone who is also involved in reading and researching them.

@mmasnick.bsky.social Oh nooooo... People who _work_ were... _getting paid_ to do it? Getting paid enough to... _have money left over?_ Money for _luxuries?_ After doing the _job that I need them to do?_ An infrastructure job _I don't even think about until my meat is poisoned?_ What socialist […]

As a former newswriter (30 years), I can tell you that's not a headline. That's the whole story.

Now we are spending millions on TESLA armored cars - whose widows break from 1 thrown rock! Such a value!

I'd love to see what the fuck he's talking about. Show us who is getting wealthy and how.

No. Actually it's not. The headline buried the lead. It should have focused on Musk's $20 Billion Contract: "Musk Companies Benefit From $20 Billion In Government Contracts, Complains Government Workers Are Overpaid"

Those Fed workers being #deport MuskNOWs boy toys!

Well, except it should say “from the American Taxpayer”. Not “the government.”

#Elon/ #Trump doing drugs? - wrong Reuters Co. gov't contract - not news agency! Lawsuit AND Tesla workers sharing sensitive images recorded from customer cars! www.forbes.com/sites/conorm...

But it’s different for him, right?

If he’s calling himself a “federal worker” then some of his claim is true. “If” is also doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence.

Also like . . . yes, taxpayer money pays federal workers. Elon, that’s what a federal worker means. I would like my tax dollars to pay for federal workers to work that’s not fucking nefarious.

How dare he have the audacity

Not living paycheck to paycheck or needing to have multiple jobs presumably

He is the biggest hypocrite!

There are laws against a federal employee taking money from a contractor. Oh, you wouldn’t know about laws.

Someone charges $8 mil a day, I heard

What is he even talking about! He is an outsider, who bought a presidency and the US Congress. They are beholden to him now.

More of this.

It's not like there's poverty, homelessness, or food shortages in this country with free health care...fuck...

OR... Alternately, we could try to NOT make every statement by them into its own front page headline? Just spit-balling ideas here...

Yep. Trump/Musk have them on admin leave earning their paycheck, but free to do work elsewhere.
