Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is seeking to cut costs for the US government, focusing on terminating the roles of probationary federal employees. This has led to concerns about army veterans losing their jobs, with Fox News host Jesse Watters making a public appeal to Musk to reconsider. Many military veterans are feeling anxious about the potential impact of these budget cuts. Critics argue that DOGE's approach lacks nuance and fails to consider individual contributions and the government's responsibility towards veterans. In addition to layoffs, there have been discussions about issuing $5,000 checks to Americans from the savings achieved by DOGE, although this proposal may face opposition from lawmakers.
