Trump appoints Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy to head new DOGE “Manhattan Project” to optimize “government efficiency”
11/14/2024 // Ethan Huff // Views

The all-new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a federal agency named after Elon Musk's DOGE "memecoin" cryptocurrency, will be headed by Musk and failed Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, we have learned.

The stated purpose of DOGE is to "slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies." Team Trump is referring to it as "potentially, the 'Manhattan Project' of our time."

"Their work will conclude no later than July 4, 2026," reads a statement from Team Trump about DOGE's timeline of operations, July 4, 2026, being America's 250th anniversary.

Vivek says people with SSNs that "end in an odd number" will be "fired"

Last November, Ramaswamy tweeted that as many as 50 percent of all federal bureaucrats will get canned on Day One of Trump's second term.

"Here's how: if your SSN (social security number) ends in an odd number, you're fired," Ramaswamy wrote.

"That downsizes government by half. Absolutely *nothing* will break as a result. It doesn't violate civil service rules because mass layoffs are exempt. SHUT IT DOWN."

More recently, Ramaswamy told podcaster Lex Fridman much the same, using the same verbiage and everything.

"Get in there on day one, say that anybody in the federal bureaucracy who is not elected, elected representatives obviously were elected by the people, but the people who are not elected, if your social security number ends in an odd number, you're out, if it ends in an even number, you're in," Ramaswamy said during the program.

"There's a 50 percent cut right there. Of those who remain, if your social security number starts in an even number, you're in and if it starts with an odd number, you're out. Boom. That's a 75 percent reduction done. Literally, stochastically, okay, one of the virtues of that, it's a thought experiment, not a policy prescription, but one of the virtues of that thought experiment is that you don't have a bunch of lawsuits you're dealing with about gender discrimination or racial discrimination or political viewpoint discrimination."

In Ramaswamy's personal view, the federal government needs to be trimmed by upwards of 75 percent all across the board. Ramaswamy wants to send all those people "home packing" and eliminate many of the agencies at which they currently work.

"In a true self-governing democracy, it should be our elected representatives that make the laws and the rules, not unelected bureaucrats," he said.

"And that is the single greatest form of economic stimulus we could have in this country, but it is also the single most effective way to restore self-governance in our country as well. And it is the blueprint for, I think, how we save this country."

Ramaswamy feels as though 25 percent of the workforce in general, public or private, is currently doing 80 or 90 percent of the "useful work." The same is true in Washington, he says.

"This will send shockwaves through the system, and anyone involved in government waste, which is a lot of people," will be let go, confirmed Elon Musk about the changes that are coming.
