Elon Musk, who President Donald Trump<\/a> tasked with spearheading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) effort, declared in a social media post that “Hysterical reactions” demonstrate the importance of DOGE’s work.<\/p>\n

He made the comment in response to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer<\/a>, D-N.Y.<\/p>\n

“An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government,” a post on Sen. Schumer’s @SenSchumer X account reads, echoing remarks the lawmaker made during a press conference.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“DOGE is not a real government agency. DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions. DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law. DOGE\u2019s conduct cannot be allowed to\u00a0stand. Congress must take action to restore the rule of law,” Schumer’s post continued.<\/p>\n

Musk described the effort to slash government waste and bureaucracy as a one-time opportunity.<\/p>\n

“Hysterical reactions like this is how you know that @DOGE is doing work that really matters,” he wrote in response to Schumer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This is the one shot the American people have to defeat BUREAUcracy, rule of the bureaucrats, and restore DEMOcracy, rule of the people. We\u2019re never going to get another chance like this. It\u2019s now or never. Your support is crucial to the success of the revolution of the people,” he asserted.<\/p>\n

The business magnate<\/a> has called DOGE “the wood chipper for bureaucracy.”<\/p>\n

“If the Treasury Secretary does not remove DOGE\u2019s access to the Treasury payment systems at once: Congress must immediately act,” another post echoing the sentiments Schumer conveyed during the press conference reads. “That is why @RepJeffries and I will work together on legislation to stop unlawful meddling in the Treasury Department\u2019s payment systems. We must protect people\u2019s Social Security payments, Medicare payments, and tax refunds from any possible tampering by DOGE or other unauthorized entities.”<\/p>\n

Musk declared in a post, “Doge has not looked at, nor is there any interest in, private financial data. What would we even do with it? The outgoing payment review process just looks at potential fraud and wasteful spending to organizations. Corrupt politicians are the ones complaining. I wonder why?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
