The DOGE team members, all young men, are being attacked by members of Congress and the media because they aren’t “old enough”, calling them “little boys”. The fact is, these “boys” are more intelligent and talented than all of their critics!

Musk responded to the criticism expressed by the media in a post on X on Monday morning:

“Time to confess: Media reports saying that DODGE has some of the world’s best software engineers are in fact true.”

For example, Luke Farritor, a young innovator associated with Elon Musk, is often referred to as a “wunderkind” in the tech industry. Farritor gained significant attention in 2024 for his work in decoding a 2,000-year-old charred papyrus scroll from Herculaneum using artificial intelligence. This achievement earned him a $700,000 prize and recognition as a tech prodigy. 

Look at this graphic prepared by Fox Business. I did not realize that many of our founding fathers were no older than these “little boys”.

Critics clutch their pearls, questioning whether these tech prodigies have the gravitas to navigate the labyrinthine complexities of government work.

Here’s the thing: Revolution is never comfortable.
