Jimmy Kimmel targeted President Trump and Elon Musk for their treatment of government employees, particularly amid mass layoffs. Kimmel highlighted the lack of compassion in the layoffs enacted by the MAGA crowd and criticized Trump for spending taxpayer dollars on golf while accusing government employees of inappropriately using their work-from-home privileges. He further lampooned Musk's new work policy for government staff requiring weekly summaries of accomplishments, comparing it to Buzzfeed's style, suggesting it trivializes serious governance issues.
The federal government is in unprecedented disarray. Ordinarily you have compassion when you lay people off, you wish them well you thank them for their work. Not MAGA, not the DOGE bros. They're throwing career-long civil servants, many of whom have worked these jobs for decades, out in the street like they're fish garbage.
He amped the hypocrisy up another notch by accusing employees of the government who work from home of being out playing golf instead of working.
It's like the governments being run by Buzzfeed.
