A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein
What I Learned From 12 Hours of DOGE Bro Depositions (with Krystal Ball)

It reminds me of that meme that's like me reaping.

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein

This sucks.

So then the attorney asks Justin about his rationale for helping terminate a grant for a documentary project called My Underground Mother, which is about Jewish women's slave labor during the Holocaust and which highlighted gender based violence against those Jewish women.

Back to Justin.

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein
What I Learned From 12 Hours of DOGE Bro Depositions (with Krystal Ball)

It's DEI because it's DEI.

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein
What I Learned From 12 Hours of DOGE Bro Depositions (with Krystal Ball)

It's like a Mobius strip.

Something that really struck me listening to these depositions is, and I talk about this topic too much on this podcast, perhaps, but like people belonging to minority groups who support the Republican Party, who continue to be Trump supporters.

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein

I talk a lot about LGBT Trump supporters and the cognitive dissonance therein.

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein

But like when you hear them spell this out so clearly, right, a grant that funded a documentary about

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein

about gender-based violence let's use plain language rape against jewish women during the holocaust is dei and slave labor and slave labor you really do have to ask over and over again for example why is any woman supporting this yeah they're telling you exactly what they think

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein
What I Learned From 12 Hours of DOGE Bro Depositions (with Krystal Ball)

means uh sucking up to you know the dominant culture or the dominant political force and so you end up with these types and yeah it's frankly it's it's frankly pathetic and shameful so by hour four of justin's deposition i am going insane at this point just just see just so you can have a little uh peek into my process uh boyfriend is uh is begging me for me to come to bed oh you're just getting started

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein

Baby, I'm on our four of 12.

The attorney at this point wants to know more about how Justin used chat GPT to select $100 million worth of federal grants to terminate.

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein
What I Learned From 12 Hours of DOGE Bro Depositions (with Krystal Ball)

First, we learn exactly what Justin's chat GPT input prompt was.

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein

these people whose whole thing is supposedly like we need everything to return to a merit-based order are like putting into ChatGBT, do my job for me, respond in 120 characters or less and start with yes or no in case I'm too lazy to read beyond the first three characters.

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein
What I Learned From 12 Hours of DOGE Bro Depositions (with Krystal Ball)

Yeah, but Crystal, you're a woman and I'm gay.

A Bit Fruity with Matt Bernstein
What I Learned From 12 Hours of DOGE Bro Depositions (with Krystal Ball)

So inherently, nothing we do is merit-based.
