US government: Musk brings Doge costers back to racism slat

Due to racist online contributions, a cost lower in the US Ministry of Finance lost the job-now Elon Musk is getting it back. Vice President JD Vance, who wrote, received support that “stupid social media activity should not ruin the life of a boy”.

The 25-year-old representative of Musk’s cost reduction committee Doge was associated with a now deleted account on Twitter and the successor platform X, where it was said, among other things: “I was racist before it was cool.” The author also wrote that even for money he would not marry outside of his ethnic group. He thinks about the Middle East conflict that he would have no problem with Gaza and Israel disappeared from the ground.

Resignation for media demand

The contributions were associated with the Doge representative of the “Wall Street Journal”. The spokeswoman for the White House, Karoline Leavitt, then informed the newspaper to the account that the 25-year-old had resigned. He had previously worked for Musk’s space company SpaceX.

The 25-year-old was one of only two Doge representatives who, in a court decision, was allowed to access the central transfer system of the US Ministry of Finance.

Backing of Musk and Vance

Musk started a campaign on Friday to bring the employee back. The journalist of the “Wall Street Journal”, who had published the report, called X at X a “disgusting and cruel person”. He also had X users vote in a survey on whether the 25-year-old should get his job back. 78 percent of the 385,000 participating users spoke out for this. After the support of Vance, Musk wrote at X: “He is brought back.” Wand is human and forgive.

According to Vance, moderators of the news channel CNN emphasize that his wife Usha Vance has Indian roots. In the account, with a view to the large number of Indian employees in Silicon Valley, it was also called up to normalize hatred.

Trump is ignorant

US President Donald Trump was also asked about the situation at a press conference. He said he did not know about it – but if Vance was of the opinion, “I am behind the vice president”.

Trump had commissioned tech billionaire Musk to reduce government expenditure. For this purpose, a body called Doge (Department of Government Efficiency) was formed, which is connected to the White House.

According to the “New York Times”, Doge has around 40 employees so far. According to media reports, many were recruited from the environment of Musk’s companies. In addition to SpaceX, it also leads the electric car manufacturer Tesla. According to the White House, Musk should be careful that no conflicts occur with its economic interests.
