Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-N.M.) said that it will take “many years” for the federal government agencies to “rebuild” from the “destruction” by tech billionaire Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) panel.
Stansbury, who sits on the House Oversight Committee, said during a Thursday night appearance on MSNBC’s “The Last Word” that investigations into DOGE are “ongoing” because many court cases are in play against the advisory panel, whose work has resulted in the firing of tens of thousands of federal workers led to effectively shutting down entire agencies.
“I mean, these actual investigations are ongoing because there’s so many court cases against what’s going on. You know, it was just announced today that a judge was allowing a court case that’s actually led by the Attorney General of New Mexico to continue because of the lawless way in which they’ve been conducting their activities under DOGE,” Stansbury said
“So I think it’s going to take, frankly, not only many years to rebuild from the destruction that Elon Musk unleashed on the government, but to even understand what they did inside these agencies,” Stansbury told host Lawrence O’Donnell. “And also, I mean, the impacts are still being felt to this day.”
