Update: We broke this news over the weekend from a lucky catch on Reddit, but the Washington Post and TechCrunch are expanding on it, citing anonymous sources. They report that 10% of the NHTSA employees have been cut, which would be about 80 staffers, with especially heavy cuts for the employees in the new office overseeing autonomous vehicle safety.
So is there going to be anyone left after this? At this rate the government is going to fall apart in a few weeks
The government falling apart is exactly the point.
I really don’t think it is honestly
At some point either Trump or Elon will snap and throw the other under the bus.
I agree they will snap, but what is the purpose of so many cuts so quickly? I don’t see another explanation. Failures in execution are to be expected from this group.
At least in this era of “Roman salutes”, we are going back to the classical definition of decimate…
Oh NO, Dhork, why did you have to be RIGHT about it
I finally get to use one of my favorite GIFs again! 😁
