Summary
IRS worker Robert McCabe, a Trump voter, expressed shock after being among 7,000 laid off by DOGE, an initiative under the Trump administration led by Elon Musk.
McCabe stated DOGE is acting like a “wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason.”
The layoffs, targeting probationary employees with less than a year of service, affect hundreds at the IRS and are part of a broader effort to shrink the federal workforce.
The cuts raise concerns about impacts on tax collection during a critical season.
What he voted for was a wrecking ball. It was glaringly obvious. What he expected was that this wtecking ball would only hit others: gays, non-whites, etc.
Right. They voted for the mummified foreskin because he was gonna destroy people’s lives. That was the point. Shit got off the rails when the lives destroyed were theirs.
