Marjorie Taylor Greene States That Federal Employees 'Do Not Deserve' Their Paychecks in Defense of DOGE Cuts​

Marjorie Taylor Greene


Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene stated in a house committee meeting that federal employees do not deserve their employment or compensation, leaving fellow representatives shocked.

The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform met on Tuesday to discuss recent developments occuring within the government, including the Trump administration's decision to terminate thousands of federal employees and cut funding from various federal departments in an effort largely spearheaded by the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Illinois Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi brought up the administration's stated goals of privatizing the United States Postal Service, citing a report from the Washington Post stating that they aimed to dissolve USPS's leadership. He noted how this could "potentially throw trillions of dollars of ecommerce transactions into turmoil."

"These reports are beyond troubling and I respectfully request that you have a hearing again on the USPS," he continued. "No private sector entity provides universal service across the nation, and without these letter carriers and others, more than 51.5 million households and businesses especially in rural communities would have no guaranteed delivery."

Rep. Greene then responded to Rep. Krishnamoorthi's concerns.

"You can protest all you want outside of departments of this government, you can protest all you want, but the American people disagree with you. You're protecting the bureaucracy. The bureaucracy is not a business. Those are not real jobs producing federal revenue. By the way, they're consuming taxpayer dollars," she said.

"Those jobs are paid for by the American people who work real jobs, earn real income, pay federal taxes and then pay these federal employees. Federal employees do not deserve their jobs. Federal employees do not deserve their paycheck, and these are jobs that can be fired at will," she continued.



Greene continued to accuse her Democratic colleagues of "complaining" and "pitching tantrums" about actions taken by billionaire Elon Musk and DOGE. Last week, the Musk-led department sent out an email to federal employees across departments demanding for them to justify their jobs by detailing their productivity. Earlier this year, the department offered millions of federal employees deferred resignation if they chose to voluntarily leave their positions of employment.

Dunno how anyone can be near him and not wanna break his shıt or even use Twitter or drive teslas.
i disagree with this. twitter was the best public square in the country before that fakkit Elon bought it, and it still is

it's not "sticking it to elon" to stop using twitter, it's just depriving yourself of a medium

I use IG. I dislike Zuckerberg too but I genuinely and strongly dislike Musk. (Worse than Trump and RFK)

I can't see myself being near dude and not punching his nose through his fụcking skull instantly.

I don't care about sticking it to him. I hate his voice. It triggers me.

ITs a multitude of things. One like someone said is they can't qualify for the jobs. Two, they jealous of the way we get treated, holidays, benefits, pay, harder to get fired after your probation period. Also folks like Trump and Elon use the federal government employees as reason why our debt so high and the reason why they pay taxes and higher prices basically making us an easier target rather than going after the real problems. Then we get articles saying that federal employment is helping black people reach middle class and higher so of course thats bad and the jobs must be handouts cause black people don't deserve or work for anything and everything is just given to them vs being the hard working white person.
I think in general, in addition to what you said, Americans hate authority/government and have zero knowledge of how the government works. Outside of the DMV most peoples interactions and perceptions with the government is negative.

If you’re a Republican federal employee how can you not feel like the biggest fool in the world? These people are all but spitting in your face for the world to see. shyt is insane.

This is how villain arcs begin.
I can't see these douchebags not buffing up security over the continuous threats from citizens.

Eventually, it will break and someone from inside will take them out.

There is no exclusive content on twitter that isn't disseminated across other platforms within 2 minutes. Nobody is being deprived by not using twitter.

Musk is an open racist. fukk him , his platform, and his companies.

Why people keep bringing up taxes as if federal employees ain't paying taxes as well. Sounds like some projection to me.
It's a narrative that elon/trump/maga/conservatives have been running with since this whole thing started as a way to get their base on board.

They really believe that taxes will be "returned to the tax payer" and their bi-weekly paychecks will go up and up.

All you have to do is ask, "if previous administrations have reduced the federal work force, was that money returned to the tax payer?"

Especially when this is being orchestrated by trump and elon :snoop:
