To apply for a job at Elon Musk’s DOGE, you’ll need to pay Elon first
Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (which he runs with Vivek Ramaswamy) put out the call Thursday for “super high-IQ small-government revolutionaries willing to work 80+ hours per week on unglamorous cost-cutting.” As appealing as that job might sound (oh, it’s seemingly unpaid also), the potential conflict came in the instructions about how to apply.
Potential applicants are being instructed to send their resumes to the DOGE account on X via direct message. Under Musk’s changes to that platform, however, only premium subscribers are able to send DMs to the DOGE account. Those run from $8 to $16 per month.
Put another way: To even be considered for a role in the department (and the site said only the top 1% of resumes will be reviewed by Musk and Ramaswamy), applicants will have to make a financial contribution to one of Musk’s businesses.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
