It just means DOGE will operate in more obscurity. He might "step down" but DOGE ain't going away.

Why stay in the house when you lit it on fire.
Aka shutting the fuck up and sitting down.
lol, so he got fired.
He's afraid... somebody caught on to one his hidden schemes or assets. He will continue to mettle behind the scenes and use Trump as a puppet.
What a coincidence...I also quit LARPing when it became apparent that I was going to become bankrupt if I continued it. The difference, of course, was that I was fully aware that I had no power or authority and that it was all make believe.
How about just get the fuck out of the government right now? Monday would be great. Here's your pink slip. Buh bye.
No one is actually getting that. I'll make a bet they pay like two months of that termination pay then end it and try to claw it back calling it illegal.
Is he going to step down the same way he stepped down from being the CEO of twitter?
Okay Elon. Here at the grand canyon. Let's take a photo... Step a little to the side...a little more. A little more...
Saved $115 billion... While the economy tanked by trillions. 🫢
Good job, guys. Work well done! /s
Has everything he needs to wreck u.s. public holdings remotely ..?
He should step off of a bridge instead
So when TSHTF over what a wreck he made he can say he doesn’t have anything to do with it.
I thought he wasn’t part of DOGE? Haha
Sure, like he stepped down at Twitter.
There's no reason to believe him now. Do you think he would willingly give up the power that he gained 2 months ago? Of course not... So even if what he's saying is technically true, it's only going to be a piece in his game to amass even more power. Remember, evil m************ like that take as much as they possibly can, for as long as they possibly can, forever.
Lackluster reporting. The article misses the fact that he has to step down as he's a special government employee and so can only work for 130 days.
Strange that that's the one law that he decided to follow.
Keep in mind what he "says" he's doing and what happens in two months... Are completely separate...
So he'll just be a different special employee a day after. Or whatever they need to justify his return.
They would keep him on if they wanted to, he's insufferable to the point that the weirdo accelerationist psudeo-nazi death cult can't tolerate him.
The Russian constitution omly allowed 2 consecutive terms.
Putin endorsed Medvedev, who served 1 term, then Putin resumed power afterwards.
At which point he removed the 2 term restriction.
They've already found another placeholder.
This is somehow ominous actually.
He saved the US nothing. He actually cost us money by having all the lawsuits and the loss of services & revenue the US Gov could have had. He did nothing for us. This was a scam to shut down investigations into his businesses and a revenge tour. Breaking the government is not a 'savings'. So is May the month that they decide to declare martial law because there is an 'emergency'? Like all the other 'emergencies' and 'national threats' that they made up? When do they start broadcasting all the news in Russian?
Probably your tax money will also be wasted replacing government buildings and resources that were flogged off for practically nothing, which has been the right wing playbook since Thatcher and Pinochet.
wish he'd step up to the headman's block
and then kneel down over it.
Ooooh. A whole $115 billion?
That’s nothing in a trillion dollar budget. Not to mention most of his “savings” have turned it to be bad math if not outright lies.
A best it's pocket change that was saved however that would require understanding finances, budgets, and payments. Concepts far above the idiots at the Department of Government Enshittification.
Musky is only using big numbers to easily bamboozle the MAGA clown show about how much money he allegedly managed to save for the government.
so he's only about halfway 'done' then? needs another month or two to finish copying every scrap of data and the sabotage of government systems, workflows, policies, procedures, and relationships.
