Have any actual journalists named a source? I don't believe anything anyone from this administration "says." We need to find out for sure before wholesale blaming of each other.
@altnps.bsky.social I know you guys will investigate this. Thanks for all your work. We need to protect each other.
No IDs yet, but don’t get comfortable. If you’re coalition-adjacent, now’s d time to double-check your opsec. Rotate burners. Secure your comms. Assume nothing’s off d radar. Protect each other. Stay invisible. Stay loud.
They risk everything so the rest of us can know. #WhistleblowerProtection
Several workers who spoke to the press after being fired by the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) have now received notices from internal HR offices informing them they are under investigation for participating in media interviews.
These employees whose formal dismissal was delayed due to bureaucratic holdups received emails with the subject line “Administrative inquiry,” accusing them of unauthorized engagement with the media and threatening further action.
Many of them only spoke out after being terminated, hoping to expose the illegal actions of DOGE and the Trump administration and keep the public informed.
No coalition members have been identified yet in this hunt. That said, we’ll remind you once again: be mindful of how you communicate. Use secure formats, follow all established guidance, and above all protect your identity. Burner phones and throwaway accounts are still a thing. Stay safe.
To you as well!
I still have great memories of my time at NPS; I was just describing an event from CALO yesterday to someone struggling to reconcile my entropic career trajectory, to show how diverse backgrounds makes a workforce stronger.
Helping wildlife healed my soul.
They are arresting people to figure out what they can get away with, without push back, and so they can figure out how to defeat the push back so they can make more arrests without push back, and....
Does federal employment cancel your first amendment? I'd understand if it were classified information they were divulging, only the president and Administration Secretarys are allowed to reveal those with impunity.
But voicing an opinion on "firings"? That can't be a breach of anything.
I wouldn’t have exercised my First Amendment rights when I was a federal employee if I’d had issues like this. Fortunately, I didn’t have these issues then.
This administration is operating as if we are at war, using emergency powers intended for wartime only. The thing is, I think there really is a war happening. It’s the administration vs. the American people. They may have America on their letter head, but they are not America. WE ARE AMERICA!
Pam lives in bass ackwards land. This admin thinks government transparency is DOGE posting unjustified mystery cuts on social media and that civil servants helping the media hold elected officials (and unelected hackers) accountable are treasonous.
Luckily for the assholes, "treason" is applicable only in wartime - if it was applicable in peacetime, a whole bunch of people, starting at the "top," would face the most severe consequences.
Democrats are looking forward to Pam Bondi that lied and said the insurrection was peaceful to try to investigate Special Counsel Jack Smith one of the most respected attorneys in the country for actually holding Donald Trump accountable.
I'm getting concerned for the well-being of protesters. I fear they're next. Soon the Democrats in Congress. He has scores to settle there. We could even see a Senator perp walked before the next election. This is where they're headed, locking up dissenters and political enemies.
It’s only freedom of speech for the regime. Bondi says things to the press no prosecutor should say. But is investigating a “former” gov employee for speaking? Unless they were telling the press secret war plans… oh wait.
The national Park service billboards have gone up where I live here in Erie PA and the head of GOP in the area has been big mad and all over the news complaining about the doge billboards. Keep up the Good work.😎
Fascist, Authoritarian Regime.
That is NOT America. All the checks and balances have been made useless and null. it's up to "We the People" to do what we are called to do to save Our Democracy. Our Rights, Lives and Save the Planet.
Remove them all. Lock them up!
If what you're doing isn't illegal then it will come to light. So, the only reason you would be worried about people talking to the media is because you are attempting things that are unconstitutional and illegal.
So she’s saying they said bad mean things. Going to prosecute them. In theory, like if you follow the law (I know!) the mean things they said will be evidence in court. The bad things she does not want made public.
Intimidation tactic - do it to a few, as a warning to shut it.
Their fragile egos can't handle anyone disagreeing with them (while all they do is spew hate). As for the link, that happened to me too because of a typo but it remained even after I corrected it - must be a BlueSky glitch.
I do not believe there is any guarantee of the Washington Post maintaining your anonymity. Are the editors requiring the reporter share their sources so Bezos can hand that over to the administration?
Exactly! This is why I subscribe to real journalists on substack. They didn't bend over for the "Don't investigate, just write this article and it must give this message..." career journalist BS.
The journalist didn’t give up the source, the ex employees just didn’t hide the fact they spoke with journalist. Probably didn’t think they were doing anything wrong.
Why can’t Bondi search and see what our constitution reads and stay within the law to do her job! People that have others do her dirty work is just - WOKE!-

Nothing has ever been so blatantly obvious in the entire history of our country! Yet the son of a bitch is still the president, and all because of the gutless Republican bastards who bow to his every insane demand! Come on God, do something!!!🙏
I’m so so sorry for all our federal employees who are on the front lines, and being targeted. This is going to get really bad. Please know there are millions supporting you ♥️
Exactly why speaking has to continue. We have to shine light on all the things they are trying to do in the shadows because what is seen is only a sliver. All of us are at risk. “Darkness cannot drive out darkness. Only light can do that.” MLK so let’s open some shades and let the light in!!
Donald Trump Dementia is so bad he doesn't realize he is telling the entire country he is committing crimes. Prosecutors are going to be able to you this in court that he knew he was committing crimes.
Even better, scotus made themselves the arbiter of which presidential actions are in his official capacity and which are not. Scotus took all the power for themselves
Democrats knew Republican in Red States voted for Republican Joe Biden in 2020 to defeat Republican Donald Trump. Democrats have to block Joe Biden supporters because of how racist they are.
You can say it anyways: what goes around comes around; the pendulum always swings back; I call it Karma. When it hits this bitch there'll be nothing left to her. She's a vapid shallow little bottle blonde with no brains. She sucks on his "ring" & think she's protected. She's not.
Always a Barbie doll wanna be in a position designed for an intelligent person with integrity. Not surprising when America is literally run by Fox news personalities.
Isn’t the enforceability of NDA’s for former federal employees extremely difficult, particularly regarding non-classified information? Shouldn’t they be subject to legal challenges, especially as they are not involving any national security matters?
Bondi is ANOTHER Trump appointee who has corrupted the agency she's in charge of and has directed and committed enough illegal and UN-Constitutional actions to get HER in prison.
The question is "Who will do it?" Impeachent articles in the House won't go anywhere, most likely, but I know where to send an email. Who brings charges against the Attorney General and will do so?
Obviously, this is not a time of instant gratification. It will have to wait for power to shift. The shift needs grassroots and a small credible set of leaders.
I really do fear though, that the Dems will block making everyone involved accountable, leaving conspirators to remain as saboteurs.
My thought was that "credible leader" would cover "Told Bondi to cut that shit out," even if outvoted or unaided, because that makes Republicans own her.
So sorry to read this. How frightening for all plus the quality knowledge of your peeps. Good luck to them. If it means smith Cdn has yr back
Right has Might
Pam Bondi needs to be indicted for unconstitutional actions. She doesn’t represent the people who pay her with tax dollars. She is beholden to the orange menace. History will not be kind to her.
Every other country in the world will keep track of what happens in the US. It doesn't matter what anyone in this country tries to suppress. The information is out there and it's staying out there.
Majority of witches were innocent women accused of keeping their homes clean with brooms, keeping company with animals, and being knowledgeable in apothecary and herbs.
Please do not equate someone evil with a witch. When oppressors write history, they are bias for their own side.
Hello, I must say that I have great admiration for you considering the manner in which I made contact with you. I'll be happy to know if you're a fan of my music? The world needs healing so why not share love and let it lead.
Question: does the govt usually insist on NDAs for their employees? Some high level positions sure, but I doubt for most employees. If not, she’s using fear and intimidation to further the regime’s agenda, which is gross and not legal.
Really only for dealing with classified. Your are still obliged to protect anything classified you know after separating, you do sign that paperwork on exit. But grunt-level GS employees, maybe some corner-case specific "proprietary" info, like what might be shielded by FOIA.
so some journalists are revealing their sources to law enforcement.
take note: you cannot trust journalists. Disguise your voice. Use a burner. Put nothing in writing. Do not send scans or pics - they can be traced back to you. Think Deep Throat.
When you're fired, you're no longer an employee. Therefore, no HR rule applies any longer. Since it's not in your employment contract that you can't speak to media ever, it's not valid. It's also an overreach. No excessive/unreasonable contracts is enforceable e.g. can't work anywhere for 50 yrs. /1
So, if it says you can't speak to media forever, it's not a valid contract. If employees never sought independent legal advice prior to signing their employment contract, can argue it was signed without sufficient time to seek ILA, therefore not enforceable. /2
That's a separate contract, that's a NDA, not employment contract. Usually have lawyer look @ NDA prior to sign. That has 0 to do w/ settlement for terminations. That's the company fearing lawsuits & pressuring employees to sign to get their severance pay, which is unfair b/c employees can get more
I'm sorry, it's "treasonous" to tell the TRUTH *after* you've been fired from your life's work by a snot nosed nazi called Big Balls??? Pam Bondi can go fuck herself and all of the DOGE team simultaneously.
I really wish the people who have committed treason would stop throwing the term around for legal actions to scare people into not exercising their rights.
This is disgusting. Hopefully courts protect their first amendment rights. There's a huge difference between giving unauthorized interviews and whistleblowing.
How sad is it that this is even being said in America? Yet I haven't celebrated this country's founding since 2016 - and can't see much chance that I will again, as long as we are infested with rapeubliKKKans and their russian puppet regime.
And you can be pretty sure professional news organizations are not giving up sources without court order, and then probably taking it to court. Influencers cosplaying journalists? Ya, good luck.
It may be from televised programming. Stephanie Ruhle had a special with ex-fed employees being interviewed; and others are doing interviews on tv and pod casts.
Bondi needs to be hauled before the Bar and lose her law license if she doesn’t know what’s legal in America!
No one should be siding with Trump by attacking the journalists; that's what he wants! The employees/ex- employees nor the media did anything wrong! It's the whole Trump administration that should be imprisoned for treason.
Precisely! Perhaps letter-writing campaign to DC Bar from concerned citizens? However, I remember hearing somewhere that the Attorney General isn’t mandated to be a practicing attorney. But it might be personally important to her if she got some serious blowback from Bar?!🤷🏻♀️
I saw a hell of a statement on LinkedIn and reached out to the author to counsel them, because they’re on admin leave and still an employee. Righteous cause doesn’t matter if you aren’t following the letter of policies. Do not make it easy for them to retaliate: you become their tool that way.
In normal times, it wouldn’t be; it would be handled through the department that employs them, supervisor—> HR + agency front office+ maybe the dept IG. But now all the normal systems are broken, the HR people and supervisors have all been fired. And the cabinet is running amok.
Classified info is one thing, releasing market-sensitive info is another, and PII requires special handling, but beyond those categories, leaking info is a career-limiting move for sure, but not criminal.
I really hope that! I hope once we are out of this there is a brave DOJ that will file charges on all of these fucks that are trying to take over nad destroy this country and don't care if they do anything Illegal.
How do we go about this? Honest question- we can get a campaign going, but who do we put pressure on to address her illegal behavior? Florida Bar Association? American?
Why should we expect America
n journalists to be ethical.

They are amping up authoritarian spectacle on all fronts. It's a symptom of fear not strength. Like afraid they're running out of time. Shortages and price spikes on the way; widespread, cross-demographic demonstrations already ramping up--I'd be nervous too.
My apologies. At the time I made that meme - one of my first, I thought Jasmine Crockett was a Senator. If you tell me what the correct term is for her, I'll remake it. 😊
For some reason English is hard, even for native speakers who grew up here. I hear them on the news all the time, usually while they are inveighing against immigrants. My eyes hurt from the rolling... lol
Bondi is not like any previous Attorney General. At least they TRIED to look like they were working for the American people. This woman doesn’t try to hide that she only works for TRUMP and the ADMINISTRATION. That’s not RIGHT.
The one thing he said that I agree with is, he could go down fifth avenue in New York City shooting people and his supporters would cheer. He said this in 2015. And yes, it's quite horrifying.
I thought his Candidacy announcement was a JOKE or a PUBLICITY STUNT. I didn’t think it was REAL. It was an actual Simpson’s episode. I still think the whole thing was manufactured from start to finish. The CIA & FBI knew about the skeletons in his closet yet the public was kept in the dark.
Yup. I read MAGA bros posts where they are bragging that they would strap themselves to a rocket and get launched (wherever?) if he told them to. 🤦♀️ 🤦♀️ 🤦♀️
Narcissistic authoritarian felon sociopathic pathological liar tyrant wannabe king is bankrupting our government by dismantling, weakening it and tanking global economy so he can have COMPLETE CONTROL.

Inform them that if THEY DO NOT ACT THEY WILL BE PROSECUTED
which they can be for RICO and criminal conspiracy
We need something new
Therefore
WE MUST REFRAME AND CALL ANYONE WHO IS PERFORMING CRIMES (which they are) CRIMINALS

Other than that, it's public data about how taxes are being spent, isn't it? Isn't it?
