Summary

Gavin Kliger, a 25-year-old DOGE goon, allegedly screamed at Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) employees during a 36-hour shift to expedite layoffs of 90% of staff.

A court paused the firings, citing violations of an earlier order requiring individual assessments before terminations. Kliger told staffers to ignore the court-ordered individual-by-individual assessment requirement.

Kliger is a 25-year-old “internet edgelord” who claims to have ditched seven figures in Silicon Valley to work at DOGE. He is a 2020 Berkeley graduate and “has boosted white supremacists and misogynists online,” Reuters reported.

Kliger has already overseen 1,500–1,700 layoffs. Only three senior staff remain, raising concerns about CFPB's ability to fulfill legal duties.

I really hope “what goes around comes around” bites this little cunt real hard

36 hours of goon? No wonder he was screaming, I bet his dick looks like a pistol grip.

Ask any doctor; if you've been awake for more than 24 hours straight you're mentally impaired. That's without any drugs, just pure biology.

I don't have access to blood tests, but I'd bet serious money that he was using some sort of medication.

That's a grin I'd like to punch off his face. Nazi scum.

36-hour shift

Our government is being dismantled by children on fucking amphetamines.

I'm usually against it for office jobs, but let's drug test these idiots.

What am I saying, if they don't already have an rx, I'm sure Elon could easily facilitate it.

Oh no wonder these brats are acting like this... you give a 25-year-old seven figures and.. there you go. It's like giving a five-year-old fucking sugar. Smack the goddamn out of him and send to his room with no supper.

I would have beaten him with a fucking keyboard.

You're getting fired anyway, might as well reenact this scene with enthusiasm.

If you're going to get a free ticket to El Salvador, you may as well go make sure it's his final beating.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Keyboards too nice. You need to mash his Nazi face in with a stapler.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

With it open so you can leave little staple-stikas across his face. (Need good aim or just to beat him senseless first...)
