Summary

JD Vance called for the rehiring of Marko Elez, a 25-year-old DOGE staffer who resigned after The Wall Street Journal exposed his racist and eugenicist tweets.

Elon Musk polled users on X about reinstating Elez, with 78% supporting his return.

Vance, while disagreeing with Elez’s posts, opposed “rewarding journalists who try to destroy people.”

Elez had access to the U.S. Treasury’s payment system before resigning.

    You don’t have to try to imagine sleeping with JD, just try to imagine staring deep into his eyes as you said “I do” and not drowning in the emptiness of knowing you are marrying the human equivalent of a racist, sexist fax machine that makes fun of kids for telling people their preferred pronouns.

    I think in some ways it would be like having a whiny little pet rock.

      I doubt he even hates trans people. I don’t think he has a single conviction. Just a completely soulless man shaped thing in a suit.

      I just realized that all these macho man redneck idiots voted for a president and vice president who both obviously wear makeup every day.
