Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.) said tech billionaire Elon Musk and President Trump are “proving every single day they do not know what they are doing.”
“Elon Musk and Donald Trump are proving every single day they do not know what they are doing, and they do not know what our federal workers actually do, and they don’t care if their firing spree ends up burning down something really important,” Murray said in a video posted to YouTube on Wednesday.
Murray made the comments during a virtual press conference, according to a statement from her office.
“Just this week, they fired another 1,400 staff at the VA, people who are helping serve our veterans gone, for no reason,” Murray said later in the video, referring to the Department of Veterans Affairs. “And here’s the thing: They are still trying to fire even more people with even less forethought. The Trump-Musk firing spree continues to be as surgical as a wrecking ball.”

Murray, Hirono, Warren, and kloubushar, the four queens of stupidity
Can somebody wake up Joe and see if he agrees?
That’s right, they’re not working to rig the system so the can get wealthy off the taxpayer’s back.
“Elon Musk and Donald Trump are proving every single day they do not know what they are doing, and they do not know what our federal workers actually do,”
And Patty Murray knows what these workers are doing? The firings are being done in conjunction with the cabinet secretaries, and the cabinet secretaries know a lot more about what their employees are doing than Patty Murray does. We elected THEM (via President Trump) to make those determinations, not Patty Murray.
The VA. Rats wouldn’t allow vets to go to an outside provider. Turn the medical part over to an HMO. Just send the bill to the taxpayers-cheaper.
This coming from what many have long considered the dumbest senator in history.
DOGE may be heavy handed. DOGE may not achieve any lasting change in government because of Congress and the courts. Yet if the effort is not made now, it never will.
Fired 1400 people who had just been hired and were still probationary, probably.
Murray?
Congress long ago gave up control over the Fed Bureauc’rats.
This is rich, coming from one of the dumbest members of CONgress. She looks like she has downs syndrome.
Is Patti Murray Mitch McConnell’s sister? There’s a very strong resemblance, especially the mouthful of crooked, stained teeth.
What a maroon
All the degenerate workers having sex on the taxpayer’s dime? Big scandal being covered up at VA.
To me, she looks like the Dutch Boy Paint kid.
It’s endlessly amusing when some worthless parasite - er, member of Congress - declares that two self-made billionaires don’t know what they’re doing.
Ideally, remove the "back-pay" provisions of Federal non-essential employees, when the do not work.....what a concept!
