      Great read!

      „Over the course of a six hour long or so deposition, Justin Fox, a former investment banker turned DOGE bro, refused to define what he believes counts as DEI; admitted he used ChatGPT to scan government contracts for terms such as “Black” and “homosexual” but not “white” or “caucasian;” and said that one of the grants he helped slash was “not for the benefit of humankind” before walking that claim back.“

    2. Over the course of a six hour long or so deposition, Justin Fox, a former investment banker turned DOGE bro, refused to define what he believes counts as DEI; admitted he used ChatGPT to scan government contracts for terms such as “Black” and “homosexual” but not “white” or “caucasian;” and said that one of the grants he helped slash was “not for the benefit of humankind” before walking that claim back.

      I watched all of Fox’s deposition from start to finish. The terse exchanges, the circular arguments, the pregnant pauses, all of it. The videos, available publicly on YouTube, were released as part of a lawsuit by the Modern Language Association, American Council of Learned Societies, and American Historical Association. They provide fascinating, or perhaps horrifying, insight into the thinking of someone inside DOGE. Even with Fox’s inability to answer seemingly easy questions, the responses are still illustrative of the recklessness and hamfisted nature of a group of young, inexperienced people who caused massive damage across the U.S. government, leading to negative consequences outside of it. DOGE as an organization has been linked to 300,000 deaths due to its cuts and multiple significant data breaches. All the while, DOGE did not actually reduce the government’s deficit.

      Before joining DOGE, Fox was an associate at the Los Angeles-based private equity firm Nexus Capital. Now he is a co-founder of a company called Special, with Nate Cavanaugh, another DOGE member. Fox says the company is “buying businesses in senior care, adopting technology to pay the nurses and caregivers more, so that the aging population has enough nurses to meet the demand.” Before joining DOGE, he had no experience in government nor public grant administration, he says in the deposition.

      Again, just further adding onto the mountain of proof that all Republicans care about is getting rich at the cost of cruelty to minorities. Its sickening how this doesnt piss off every American.

      He looks exactly like what you would expect. Still cannot believe the Muskrat got away with this.

    5. Watched a few of the videos.

      Each of these douchebags comes across as widely narcissistic as fuck. Their eyes were dead similar to that Kirk woman grifter.

      They obviously didn’t give a shit about the impact of their decisions.

      If you’ve got an itch for deposition stuff, I have to recommend the podcast Knowledge Fight’s „Formulaic Objections“ episodes about the depositions of Alex Jones and his staff about his Sandy Hook lawsuit. It’s fascinating how many people think they can outsmart the lawyer across the table from them in a deposition. If you’re being deposed, you’re already losing. Say as little as possible. But so many people think they can talk their way out of it. There’s no argument to be won here, only evidence to be gathered.
