亿万富翁埃隆·马斯克和他的年轻科技工程师团队撕裂联邦政府-迫使数十名联邦雇员接受行政休假，迫使更多人接受收购，并削弱支持美国和世界各地一些最贫困人口的机构-他正在用他的签名trolling做这一切，一路上嘲笑他的批评者和目标。
根据美国广播公司新闻(ABC News)的一篇评论，马斯克基本上一直在直播他的政府部门针对各机构的效率努力，仅在周二至周三的24小时内就发布了近200次。
他无情地嘲笑他的批评者，无论他们是国会议员还是受影响的联邦工作人员，并发布关于他下一步计划针对哪些机构的帖子。
随着国会民主党人试图在集会和听证会上反击马斯克，这位亿万富翁似乎并不担心。相反，他花了很多时间在X上嘲笑他们，经常使用大笑和舌头伸出的表情符号，以及迷因。
今天早些时候，马斯克还回应了监督民主党人试图迫使他在他们的委员会面前作证。“这怎么是现实?Lmaooo，”马斯克回应道。
包括美国国际开发署(USAID)在内的几个机构的员工一直在争夺DOGE强迫削减开支和删除DEI - diversity，equity和inclusion - programs。
在他的X账户简历中，马斯克现在将他的角色描述为“白宫技术支持”，这是他告诉他的盟友的头衔。
他甚至在自己的社交平台上向他的2.16亿粉丝调查DOGE是否应该审计国税局，选项包括“是”、“是”和“否”。
马斯克回应了一位称他为“该死的传奇”的用户，因为他找到了“源代码”并“开始黑客攻击”，并附上了一张写着“系统管理员”的衬衫照片。这件衬衫参考了IT界流行的一个迷因，将系统管理员比作“教父”，电影的标志显示一只手在拉木偶线。
他甚至分享了一个帖子，把自己比作教父。
马斯克周三在X上发表了一篇帖子，这是对密歇根州民主党众议员梅拉妮·斯坦斯伯里(Melanie Stansbury)本周早些时候在财政部由民主党人领导的抗议活动中分享的视频的直接回应。援引“教父”，他称自己为“狗爸爸”，并引用了电影中的一句话:
“她在我总督结婚的那天来找我，提出了这些要求。但是她叫我狗爸爸吗?她是朋友吗?晚上好，晚上好，”他写道。
Musk trolls critics and federal workers as DOGE targets US agencies
As billionaire Elon Musk and his team of young tech engineersrip through the federal government-- forcing scores of federal employees to be put on administrative leave, pressuring more to take buyouts, and crippling agencies that support some of the poorest people in the U.S. and around the world -- he is doing it all with his signature trolling, mocking his critics and targets along the way.
Musk has been essentially live-tweeting his Department of Government Efficiency efforts targeting agencies -- posting nearly 200 times in a 24-hour period alone from Tuesday into Wednesday, according to a review by ABC News.
He has relentlessly mocked his detractors, whether they be members of Congress or affected federal workers and posting about which agencies he plans to target next.
As Democrats in Congress attempt to push back against Musk -- both at rallies and in hearings -- the billionaire appears unfazed. Instead, he spends much of his time mocking them on X, frequently using laughing and tongue-out emojis, along with memes.
Earlier today, Musk also responded to Oversight Democrats’ attempts to compel him to testify before their committee. “How is this reality? Lmaooo,” Musk posted in response.
Employees of several agencies, including USAID -- the U.S. Agency for International Development -- have been scrambling as DOGE has forced spending cuts and deleted DEI -- diversity, equity and inclusion -- programs.
In his X account bio, Musk is now describing his role as "White House tech support," a title he has told to his allies.
He is even using his social platform to poll his 216 million followers about whether DOGE should audit the IRS, with the options, "Yes," "F Yes" and "No."
Musk responded to a user who called him an "Effing legend" for finding "the source code" and "And started hacking" with a photo of a shirt that reads "The SYSADMIN." The shirt is a reference to a meme popular in the IT world that likens system administrators to "The Godfather" with the movie's logo that shows a hand pulling puppet strings.
He even reshared a post comparing himself to The Godfather.
Musk pinned a post on X Wednesday that is a direct response to a video Michigan Democratic Rep. Melanie Stansbury shared from a protest led by fellow Democrats at the Treasury Department earlier this week. Invoking "The Godfather," he called himself "The DOGEfather" and made reference to a quote from the movie:
"She comes to me on this day of my DOGE's wedding and makes these demands. But does she call me The DOGEfather? Is she even a friend? Buona sera, buono sera," he wrote.
