   I woke up to many people posting this but it's wrong.

   These are USDS staffers hired before Trump arrived back in DC. They are highly principled experts building digital systems to help people. They quit rather than work on DOGE bullshit coup things. They were never part of DOGE.

   This isn't a "win" for people who dislike what DOGE is doing. These aren't DOGE workers who suddenly grew a conscience, they are good people who didn't want any part of doing terrible work under Elon Musk or Trump
