When I see stories like this, doesn't it make it easier, not harder for the DOGE folks to do their thing?

I get the "resign in protest" angle but is it really helping any?

I think it is in part a statement of "I can no longer do my job as required but am expeted to take responsibility for future outcomes, so i'd ratger resign" which I would cobsider reasonable.
When you can't prevent corruption, you can choose to separate yourself from the outcome, or potentially be blamed for it later.
