Summary
Gavin Kliger, a 25-year-old DOGE goon, allegedly screamed at Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) employees during a 36-hour shift to expedite layoffs of 90% of staff.
A court paused the firings, citing violations of an earlier order requiring individual assessments before terminations. Kliger told staffers to ignore the court-ordered individual-by-individual assessment requirement.
Kliger is a 25-year-old “internet edgelord” who claims to have ditched seven figures in Silicon Valley to work at DOGE. He is a 2020 Berkeley graduate and “has boosted white supremacists and misogynists online,” Reuters reported.
Kliger has already overseen 1,500–1,700 layoffs. Only three senior staff remain, raising concerns about CFPB’s ability to fulfill legal duties.
Well now that’s a spankin’
That’s a grin I’d like to punch off his face. Nazi scum.
That’s when it’s time to pop the AirPods Pros in and noise cancel him. You want me to quit because you’re having a tantrum to expedite me leaving? I’m older, wiser, and will just double down on staying.
Cause that’s a great way to motivate me and get me to do what you want, just scream at me. That shows me you have power and authority…oh, no, wait, that just shows how much of a huge man baby you are and how much pleasure I’ll have telling you to fuck off right to your face.
A 25- year old nothing has no idea what a livelihood is. He’s never had to do the shit a real man or woman has to do to provide.
Daddy’s boy needs to learn his place. Stay in your lane rich boy and shut up.
Neat watching lemmy pretend to care about workers at all.
See ypu in the next minimum wage thread where your worth as a person is determined by your age and location.
Lemmy.world will act like they care about workers, but as soon as workers want any meaningful change, they’ll argue “the political leaders’ hands are tied, they try everything they could!”
Meanwhile Trump gets whatever he wants without issue. I wonder why Democrats are powerless to help people but Trump can damage entire systems…

Sinema’s thumbs down remains democrats’ last word on minimum wage. Her hands were free.
If I had a nickel for the times Democrats could have done something more useful but crumped and abandoned because of Republicans being dickheads, I’d have enough to lobby one.
So he gave up 7 figures to work 36 hour shifts as a government employee? Dude is definitely not fucking smart
He was offered a role where he could openly express his hatred and narcissism in the form of unlimited cruelty to other humans. I suspect he would have done it for free.
Plus, he’s young enough that if nobody kills him, he’ll definitely have to answer for his actions at the American version of the Nuremberg Trials.
De-nazification was a lie. The East and West German governments were flush with ex-Nazi mid-level bureaucracts by the end of the 1940s, with Nazi officer survivors holding positions as senior as cabinet secretaries and high courts.
While US authorities sought justice by putting 16 lawyers and jurists who played a role in the Nazi regime on trial in 1947, Germany tried one lone prosecutor after establishing the West German Federal Republic in 1949.
Many of those working for the ministry in the post-war years came from backgrounds as lawyers or judges in Nazi Germany, and came to the department to provide legal advice as West Germany rebuilt itself. By coming together and closing ranks, the network of former Nazis not only protected one another from legal prosecution but also bound together to create the nation’s laws.
Nevermind the NATO commanders with Nazi careers who helped to form the post-war anti-communist movement’s backbone.
or he’s getting in at the ground floor of the ‘new’ nazi government
No - he’s forcing others to work 36 hour shifts then yelling at them for not being fast enough.
He’s gotta
build upburn his resume
36 hours of goon? No wonder he was screaming, I bet his dick looks like a pistol grip.
Normally I’d joke about how “We know where they sleep” but this goon doesn’t seem to do much of that. I still hope someone beats the shit out of him, and the rest of the conservatives.
You also saw the late-January Redditor spreadsheet listing his personal cell phone number, parents’ home address, and his personal email address? I can’t believe that dude was dumb enough to leave all that information casually lying around on the world wide web for just anyone to find through public search channels.

If I were a career federal employee with decades on the job, and some snot nosed discount Nazi baby comes into my workplace and does this shit, I don’t care what happens, I’m beating the little shit to within an inch of his miserable life.
Just keep calling him bud, dude, kid, et. until he snaps and you can “be in reasonable fear of receiving a battery”
Ask if he needs a nap, a juice box, a snack or if his tummy hurts and if that is why he is so cranky. Also call him champ and slugger.
“Calm down”
I mean, I’m not sure why you’re assuming you’d be in the 10% they kept around and not the 90% they kicked out at even the faintest hint of obstinance. The only people left are the ones they considered easy to bully.
Sorry, you gotta speak up bud, you talk too quiet.
Dude isn’t an edgelord because edgelords play around on the line. This kid is a fascist
If I’m being forced to layoff 90% of my department, and this goon starts screaming after 36 straight hours, and a court order to cease, I’m going to punch him in the face, mid-scream, as hard as I can, probably multiple times. And I’ll bet he couldn’t find a single witness.
“He fell down.” -Everyone else present
“And dismembered himself”
tsk… this young and he already has high blood pressure. i dunno bro.
I’m going to punch him in the face, mid-scream, as hard as I can, probably multiple times.
I mean, I certainly get the sentiment. But these are the same people with a gestapo that’s dragging people off by their hair, throwing them into cargo planes, and shoveling them into an El Salvadorian concentration camp.
What’s frustrating is to see the last 10% not following the first 90% off the job in solidarity. Americans who are willing to work 36 hour shifts aren’t doing their peers or their countrymen any favors, even if they do work for the CFPB. That department cannot fulfill its purpose under the current management and you’re foolish if you continue to perpetuate the hoax that it is functional.
I will fight every second of it.
Must have been screaming too hard and got dizzy…
That’s what happens when you’ve been on a Pervitin bender.
Put him on ski patrol duty with the patrol’s entire supply of the stuff and see how far he gets behind enemy lines.
I got you boo. I’ll help pay for your lawyer.
No need for a lawyer. I preemptively saw (see?) that the goon walked into a door.
Poor guy bounced off, rolled down six flights of stairs (“But it’s only a 3-story building!”) and landed in a running woodchipper.
Weird thing is that the woodchipper mulch went straight into the ground and got cemented over. If only we had known
Yeah, if only we [ Removed by Reddit ]
Another fucking neo-Nazi loser. Firing people and boosting white supremacists, fuck him.
Naah im good on fucking him. Aint my type
Wait… Reuters called this dude an “edgelord”?
I never thought I could like them more, but here we are.
I think they’re quoting the linked Forbes article not the linked Reuters one. I searched for “edgelord” between the two
Doge just keeps lining up more and more future lawsuit payouts that the government will have to pay when the next president takes office. Every penny saved will cost thousands in lawyers fees and payouts. If not tens or hundreds of thousands.
