What we know about claims DOGE found $312M in business loans to children

I'm betting he and his geniuses cut of survivor benefits to children.

Basically this isn't real. Elon Musk had his agency make a claim on Twitter, and then he replied to his own agency with an emoji, and then no proof came out.
This is no different than Elon using his burner account to post about how great a dad he is. DOGE is his alt account made to say shit he wants.
- Is there nothing he does that isn't him being an absolute poser? Saying he founded Tesla, being an aerospace "engineer", pretending to be an accomplished "gamer", him being a Linux user, etc etc.
  Edit: oh yeah, the Nazi thing, I guess that's real.
  
  I think his Nazi stuff could be posing too. He did get caught flashing a woman. Tried to keep her quiet by promising to buy her a horse. Makes sense to come out as conservative once people think you're a POS.
Since it's all projection, how many kids have loans from Republicans?
- How many government loans does he have across his companies? Tesla was basically built on government subsidies, and so was spaceX.
- I think a few payoffs at least
Smoke and mirrors.
The whole thing is just designed to make it look like Musk is doing something other than shutting things down haphazardly. Someone makes a claim, it gets press, and then it is never verified.
There is a reason DOGE sees itself as immune to FOIA requests. They don't want anyone looking behind the curtain.
I don't think I like Snopes News. The whole point of the site was a clear graphic, and a concise definitive judgement of a rumor or claim. If I wanted a long article that goes into the problems with some story or something, I could just use any other reputable news source. Or at least this should start with the easily shareable verdict we're used to...
- Snopes isn't what it used to be..They got bought out by their advertisement from a few years ago and the original folks who ran it are long gone.
  
  Of course. I guess we all should just expect enshittification from anything and everything...
Doesn’t this just refer to orphaned children receiving social security survivor benefits?
Elon is profoundly cruel and rotten to his core.
