The article discusses the backlash against Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) as reporters, workers, and judges challenge its drastic measures against federal employees. Latisha, a Department of Veterans Affairs employee, criticized Musk's demands as disrespectful and indicative of a broader intention to privatize public services, particularly affecting marginalized workers. ProPublica's editor, Stephen Engelberg, highlighted the misrepresentation of remote work statistics by the Trump administration to justify DOGE's controversial practices, which may also face constitutional scrutiny according to recent court rulings.
Latisha, an employee at the Department of Veterans Affairs, remarked that Musk's demand for weekly work summaries from federal employees was 'insulting' and aimed to undermine public services.
Stephen Engelberg, ProPublica editor, criticized the Trump administration for citing a 'clearly wrong, clearly disproved' statistic about remote federal workers being used to support DOGE's authority.
