#DOGE also announced drastic cuts at depts that provide critical #SocialServices including #VeteransAffairs [#VA], which administers #healthcare for #veterans, & the #SocialSecurity Administration, which sends out checks to #retired, #disabled & #widowed Americans [money Americans put into the #SSA out of their own paychecks].

#OPM …has laid off >200 of its own employees & allowed >400 to *opt in* to *voluntary* exit programs since #Trump took office…

"Authorizing a #Musk-controlled agency like #OPM to hire a driver while slashing essential #FederalWorkers who actually help Americans in need is a good example."

The #Trump admin, #DOGE, Musk & Ezell did not respond to requests for comment. An OPM spox said in a statement that the agency "has ongoing security concerns" requiring a driver, w/o providing further detail.

Centralizing Personnel Authority

A new #Trump move seeks to evade #court orders & empower DOGE

"Why the new confidence in OPM? #OPM is, effectively, a subsidiary of DOGE now. DOGE employees, when they meet resistance, have not been shy about threatening federal employees or contractors... The new #EO means that #DOGE employees have even more leverage in their interactions with agencies."
