The chaos currently unfolding in the U.S. government isn’t just unsettling; it’s downright alarming. If you’ve been trying to track the latest DOGE antics, you’re likely feeling as lost as a kid in a candy store without their parents.

Let’s summarize: 19-year-old social media phenom “Big Balls” is making some baffling decisions from a cybersecurity perch, and we’re not sure what’s scarier, the name or his credentials. Meanwhile, a former employee with ties to selling AI disasters in Russia is now shaping national security at the highest levels. Head spin yet? Trust us, it gets worse.

With every day, another alarming headline appears. The USAID organization, which helps provide vaccines and medical assistance worldwide, has been left in tatters. This means fewer people will have access to life-saving vaccinations, and we can thank our dear DOGE overlords for that. Enjoy those pesky diseases surfacing again because that’s what happens when you prioritizing firing staff over public health.

The cuts aren’t just impacting international health; they’re rapidly erasing decades of institutional knowledge at domestic agencies. The Social Security Administration reportedly plans to halve its workforce. And the Department of Housing and Urban Development? Prepare for an astronomical 84% cut. Good luck finding any emergency help if disaster strikes. Want to eventually buy a house? That dream just got an eviction notice.

The National Parks are also facing the backlash of sloppy cuts, meaning your Yosemite visit might be disrupted in a way that goes beyond the usual tourist traffic. Want a fun trip? Just imagine parks lacking adequate staff while your Insta pics go up in smoke amidst the chaos of wrong priorities.

DOGE is gearing up for mass layoffs like a reality TV show running amok, who’s getting fired next? Everyone seems to have an explanation, but no one has a clue what’s coming. The only promise from Elon Musk’s DOGE crew is that, sure, there’ll be mistakes, huge ones. He might have acknowledged a recent interruption to Ebola prevention efforts, but don’t be fooled into thinking anything’s been restored. Quite the opposite, actually.

So, if you thought the last decade was a wild ride in terms of governance, hold onto your tote bags. The ripples of incompetence are just beginning, threatening to send us spiraling into a government meltdown of epic proportions, but hey, at least you’ll have some juicy memes to console you, right?

Let’s not sugarcoat it: we’re witnessing a level of destruction that could shape the future of our nation, all courtesy of a tech titan dabbling in politics like it’s a video game. No high score will save us now.
