Earlier today we told you that an employee of DOGE was targeted by a garbage media reporter for the WSJ, who dug up some racist tweets he’s made in the past. That employee resigned.

President Trump was asked about this today by Peter Doocy, who said the employee was fired. Doocy wanted to know if he agreed with VP Vance that the employee should be brought back.

Here is Trump’s response:

I love that Trump backed up his VP so quickly, especially not knowing the details. That’s incredible trust right there.

So what exactly did VP Vance say?

I obviously disagree with some of Elez’s posts, but I don’t think stupid social media activity should ruin a kid’s life. We shouldn’t reward journalists who try to destroy people. Ever.

So I say bring him back. If he’s a bad dude or a terrible member of the team, fire him for that.

And that’s exactly what Elon Musk just announced he is going to do:

Outstanding.
