As long as it gets the job done, that’s fine with me. It’s supposed to be about efficiency and cost savings. Eliminate the positions as quickly as possible and save the taxpayers money. It doesn’t need to be fancy!


Can we also eliminate the $400m for cybertrucks putting even more money into this man's pockets?


How is this not a conflict of interest????

I am a former fed and agree. You could fire 2/3 or more of the agency I worked for and there would be no discernible impact. My colleagues and I would talk about how a fed job was a form of welfare. At least then you had to show up and pretend to do work to get paid. For the last five years, you didn’t even have to show up.

Troll harder

Where did you work? I’m a former fed with commerce and that was not my experience. I’d say 95% were really good and 5% were duds.

My agency is in the wrong place and has no info. Good job Elon.

As a consultant for private sector companies, the feds I worked with were very good. Some were impressive, some were just competent but all of them (except that one guy and I will doxx him) were responsive and responsible.

I did that for over a decade while living in a lower cost of living area. Those career feds absolutely earned their salaries.

I’m the contractor PP above and I can’t help myself. The idea that private sector companies are more efficient is so amusing. I’ve seen many and they may look glossy on the outside but they are a sh$tshow on the inside.

Some of them operate exactly like the federal government. Some of them make crazy decisions based on what can only be described as emotion (publicly traded companies). Some have a hard time modernizing but the successful ones are fairly sound (privately held). Pros and cons to each.

Any career Fed who welcomes an unelected foreign billionaire taking over our government is undoubtedly a foreign asset, a traitor, or (at best) a downright moron.


Those things are not mutually exclusive.

+1. I am talking people who should be retired. People who don’t do their share of the work. Just lingering and collecting. This is who needs to go. 👍

I don't see the fraud and waste.


Tell that to a 56 year old MAGA that does hard manual work on a farm or as a builder and clears less than that without benefits.


Ok so because manual labor pays less than white collar work it is “fraud.” And is it only “fraud” when government employees earn that much? Or is it also fraud when people make that much (and much more!) in the private sector.

Like somehow an attorney at a firm can make a good salary but God forbid a DOJ attorney make low six figures.

It’s all so dumb.

You don’t like hearing about my experience and your only retort it to call me a troll.

Note the base baiting: the total wage bill is featured at the top with no context for its % of the national budget or the services provided by those workers, whose pay is scaled for cost of living in different areas. He also does not disclose his own benefits from his government position, such as his power to shut down agencies that were investigating his businesses. Who is really serving the people?

Am I missing something on this website? I am not seeing individual information. Just big-picture information like the salaries by division/section of an agency.

I can only assume that you are all for taxing corporations appropriately too? Surely that would be a better way to eliminate waste (read: gov't handouts to billionaires) than destroying people's livelihoods?

Given lifespans these days and cost of living, white collar workers really shouldn't be retiring in their 60s if they are healthy and productive. It's hard to save money to live for 20 years by working 40. Easier to work for 50 and save for 10.

My grandma lived to be 101. She had a widow's corporate pension and medical for 36 years. I will only have 401K and nothing beyond Medicare if it even exists. My regular retirement age is 67.

If the US isn't going to be as immigrant friendly, we need people to work longer to keep productivity up and paying into the social insurance system.

I'm sorry your older co-workers aren't productive. That makes it harder to get people to consider my point. My company just laid off a bunch of people with 37-39 years service. It's not clear to me that their productivity had changed. They were just a middle management layer. Now those people are in their early 60s and could probably work another 10 years but probably won't get the chance. We need to figure out ways to let older workers continue to participate meaningfully in the economy.
