Trump voter shocked to get fired by DOGE: It’s ‘destroying people’s lives'
"A wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason.”
Summary
IRS worker Robert McCabe, a Trump voter, expressed shock after being among 7,000 laid off by DOGE, an initiative under the Trump administration led by Elon Musk.
McCabe stated DOGE is acting like a “wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason.”
The layoffs, targeting probationary employees with less than a year of service, affect hundreds at the IRS and are part of a broader effort to shrink the federal workforce.
The cuts raise concerns about impacts on tax collection during a critical season.
He'll probably vote for him again next term, where Trump will win with 88% of the vote.
I know they don't really care about laws or what's legal but this is his last 4 years unless they go full on mask off dictator. So far, he's doing a bang up job trying to position himself as such.
I don't think that's clear by any means.
They're implementing the machinery for authoritarian control.
When productivity becomes the primary concern in a country, don't be surprised your life and aspirations are destroyed for the greater design of a rich dude.
They say that deregulation is the way to freedom but money is a way to coerce people into doing things they don't want. Americans like this IRS worker just traded relative democracy for feudalism lol.
The worse part is that I'm currently headed to the airport to go to Denver lol (I'm French), what am I doing going into this ehehehe ?
Leopards will not go hungry for the next 4 years.
I guess this is the only way to break the spell on these people, one at a time?
Have them lose their job and be miserable thanks to Republican policies?
Also: I have just no idea how you could be working for the government and voting Republican. The Republicans have been for saying, for years, that they want to destroy government.
Trouble is they will only realise when they are effected.
Equally, I am confused by Brits that work for the NHS and vote Conservative.
Same propaganda works everywhere.
The middle class is deteriorating, pay * isn't increasing in sync with inflation, less kids, less money in taxes.
The rich aren't rich in a vacuum, as the * Rich get richer the rest get poorer. It's pretty easy to target them to hate down one social level.
As far as NHS, well if you're not overly sick you're paying too much and most people aren't overly sick. People who are struggling really get behind the "fuck you I got mine" train when instead they could be on the help me too train.
No, the spell is broken when they enter the next phase of the human lifecycle, this is just a brief moment of clarity in the psychosis riddled mind of your average conservative.
FAFO.
I have zero sympathy for this chucklefuck. I voted to save democracy. I just hope they hurt more than I do for their shit choice.
Rest of the trump voters: not my life, don't care!
Reap what you sow- MAGA
Wait, so when it was destroying other people's lives, that was fine, but now that it's your life, you wanna be a bitch?
Let me help you here dear trump voter... Fuck you, you deserve it.
Unfortunately some people have less empathy than others. They learn mostly via experiences where they are hurt themselves.
In my hometown we have a saying that translates to "to cut one's dick to spite the wife"
Does anyone know why a federal worker would vote to have their own job removed? If they thought they would be safe, where's the logic there? Did trump say he was cool with IRS workers at some point?
I also dont quote understand someone who believes in minimizing the federal government, then working for the federal government.
Imagine working with the IRS, voting with the party that has said for years they want to defund the IRS, and then being surprised when that party attacks the IRS. I don’t fucking understand these people at all. They truly live a life devoid of reality. They are incapable of considering real world consequences.
Truly to be a conservative is to lack imagination.
They believe they are special. My job is important so it wont get cut. My abortion was just because it could have caused health problems for me. I deserved unemployment/medicaid because i paid into it.
It is not imagination but empathy they lack until it effects their lives.
And any type of reason, critical thinking, compassion, empathy, or most other basic human emotions.
Someone I know would often spar with his neighbor over politics. Neighbor has been working for the USPS for most of his life. Neighbor was full-on fucking MAGA. I'd like to get an update on that guy, but the person I know moved and lost contact w/ the qon neighbor.
But I wonder if his butt puckered up just a little bit when he learned this:
My face! The leopards! The goggles! They do nothing!
You were only supposed to destroy other people's lives!
McCabe stated DOGE is acting like a “wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason.”
Reading between the lines, ol' Bob here seems to think that only MAGA are people. Destroying the libs' lives is perfectly fine.
That's what they all think. They're violent, hateful, and disgusting people. I'm wondering how long before Nazi hat wearing motherfuckers start getting attacked in public as a matter of self defense.
A few miles away, another prison employee, Crystal Minton, accompanied her fiancé to a friend's house to help clear the remnants of a metal roof mangled by the hurricane. Ms. Minton, a 38-year-old secretary, said she had obtained permission from the warden to put off her Mississippi duty until early February because she is a single mother caring for disabled parents. Her fiancé plans to take vacation days to look after Ms. Minton's 7-year-old twins once she has to go to work.The shutdown on top of the hurricane has caused Ms. Minton to rethink a lot of things."I voted for him, and he's the one who's doing this," she said of Mr. Trump. "I thought he was going to do good things. He's not hurting the people he needs to be hurting."
Crystal Minton, who inadvertently became the ideological core of the MAGA movement. She said the quiet part out loud.
I've been wondering the same thing.

him also misunderstanding what the "wrecking ball" does?
Exactly. In what universe is a wrecking ball used to build something?
Same with chainsaws - some of the dipshits are still employing this myth that fElon and his Incel Clown Posse were going to be applying sound principles to improving efficiency in some kind of surgical fashion (instead of the smash-n-grab that it really is).
Meanwhile, fElon is literally swinging around a chainsaw for his slack-jawed yokel admirers. Even on metaphors, this is a huge failure. What kind of surgery is done with a FUCKING CHAINSAW?
Even the most dogmatic redcap adherents cannot make that make sense to each other.
"I didn't think the leopards were going to eat MY face" - says the person that voted for the Leopards Eating Faces party
As MAGA likes to say... Cry harder!
No kidding you voted for the person that said he wanted to hurt people.
Yeah, but TBF, he thought it was going to be OTHER people that were getting hurt.
When he said he was coming for everybody but you thought he'd make an exception for you.
The IRS, particularly, was spoken about as a clear target well before Election Day. The GOP make it clear they want to kill the revenue generating service because they’re actually terrible business people.
This guy is an idiot if he didn’t think he could be impacted, too.
Realization is not enough. If you voted for Trump you need to actively work to undo the damage you caused. This isn't a forgive and forget situation.
In other news, Trump voter finally understands Homer's catchphrase "D'oh!" after 38 years.
I didn’t think the Leopards would terminate my employment!
Oh look! It’s your cake and now you can eat it too!
Sorry, no eggs
Die Eier von Satan
You won. Now deal with it.
It hurt itself in its confusion
So anyways, I think we need to come together on a Leopard's Obesity Awareness program. Nobody seems to be talking about just how fat those poor poor leopards are getting!!
Save the leopards
The world's most microscopic violin is being played
The tardigrade will lend you his.
Enjoy it, dumbass.
The Leopards Eating Faces party is a real thing, guys.
Haha, that's what you get.
Milei giving his best Borat impression
„He came in like a wrecking baaaaaaaall“
