The more Democrats panic, the harder the American people are demanding to know exactly what USAID has been doing with OUR tax dollars.[/quote]

I don’t have any strong, ingrained opposition to the idea of return-to-work efforts, cutting costs or reforming USAID.

I don’t necessarily have complete opposition to the idea of slashing a little procedural red tape in a dire emergency.

The problem is that, in this situation, Musk’s team is:

- Failing to do any kind of fact-finding or consultations.

- Showing no awareness of or interest in the relevant law or regulations, or any understanding of the bipartisan reasons some rules or programs might be necessary.

- Worshipping AI in an idiotic way. Of course it’s great and useful and can do many things. That doesn’t mean you can get rid of two-thirds of the federal workforce this year. AI screws up a lot and needs constant supervision by smart people. It’s simply not ready to take over that much human work in the next two or three years.

- Using extreme violations of laws and procedures in a situation that might be troubling but is not a highly time-sensitive emergency.

- Doing sensitive work with no vetting or inadequate vetting.

- Ignoring data security and data privacy concerns.

- Through lack of attention to security, exposing our most sensitive data to Russia and China.

- Destabilizing the U.S. dollar.

Musk could be tearing into USAID and other agencies without s destabilizing the dollar. The obvious implication is that Musk’s primary goal is to destroy the dollar. [/quote]
