I don't believe this for a moment, but taking it on face value, they are telling us that the person in charge of firing thousands of federal workers for being lazy and doing no work was taking a vacation during those firings. They've only been in office a month! - ThreadSky

Meet the acting DOGE administrator: a former USDSer named Amy Gleason — who happens to be on vacation this week and didn't know in advance the White House was releasing her name. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

This vs. Clinton did not inhale, Obama wore a tan suit, Biden's son had a lunch and had his father on the phone. WTF?

There isn't any right to anonymity if you work in a public position LOL. It ain't the CIA.

amallan.bsky.social•3 days ago

What an absolute joke All to protect Elon.

bccjc55.bsky.social•3 days ago

Amy Gleason AKA Elon Musk.

szilvakek.bsky.social•3 days ago

Perhaps we should ask her to itemize the 5 things she has done for DOGE this week.

sashat.bsky.social•3 days ago

Amy Gleason has been chosen as this season’s Linda Yaccarino 🎬

dittysanchez.bsky.social•3 days ago

Blast from the past!

rhondawolfson.bsky.social•3 days ago

It sounds like it's throw someone under the 🚌 day.

happyporcupine.bsky.social•3 days ago

They chose the female "DEI hire" to be sacrificed to the volcano.

harlanbelle.bsky.social•3 days ago

Amy is going to prison as the Felon throws her under the bus.

hollyhockcottage.bsky.social•3 days ago

wtfusa2025.bsky.social•3 days ago

gastropoda.bsky.social•3 days ago

@aiannucci.bsky.social couldn't top this.

listessotempo.bsky.social•3 days ago

Look, maybe she’s just working remotely

mriphysician.bsky.social•3 days ago

Did she answer elons 5 bullet points

starlightwishes.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yeah. It's a setup. She's a stooge. I bet they just picked her cos she's out of the country. Bet she won't want to come back either.

nazgul.infosec.exchange.ap.brid.gy•3 days ago

@helenkennedy.bsky.social @jodmentum This is why you should never miss a meeting, even for vacation. You never know when you might be picked to be the scapegoat.

moredeadnazispls.bsky.social•3 days ago

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

hazmatcorntail.bsky.social•3 days ago

No, they just knew they were screwed so they scrambled and picked a name.

She might not be coming back from Mexico right away, but I can be pretty sure her vacation is over, anyway.

dagies.bsky.social•3 days ago

The stated hypocrisy is par for the course with this administration.

icuk.bsky.social•3 days ago

No. She is the one they are throwing under the bus not Elon. She’s the DEI fall girl

bbut59.bsky.social•3 days ago

More lies,but are we surprised.

factsmustwin.bsky.social•3 days ago

And she started at USDS in January

sheeri.org•3 days ago

Wait. Did she not reply to the email???

janolt.bsky.social•3 days ago

Which Republicans voted against?

otts3000.bsky.social•3 days ago

I mjust going to point out that white women continue to sell their souls for whiteness

themistocleswall.bsky.social•3 days ago

yeah there’s a limit to the amount of BS a federal judge will let the government get away with before they have blown their credibility and the rulings start to get very heavy against them

drprunesquallor.bsky.social•3 days ago

Former federal law clerk here to confirm. That fuse can be very short, especially if the judge's authority is questioned, the one thing they really, really do not like.

skeetownhobbit.bsky.social•3 days ago

No judge has been put in the position that these judges have been in our lifetimes, when you look at the big picture.

Can't go off of norms anymore.

sunshine614.bsky.social•3 days ago

And where else is she vacationing but MEXICO!!!!!!

shamrocklady.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump move put a woman in there because then you can abuse her for musk’s crime

davidwmoorhouse.bsky.social•3 days ago

bigfatbartolocolon.bsky.social•3 days ago

if I was getting ready to fire thousands of people for no reason I'd get out of the country too

zeldaqueen.bsky.social•3 days ago

A full week of vacation at that, not like she had to take a day off for errands or something.

salviati.bsky.social•3 days ago

She's the head of doge as much as llnda yaccarino is the CEO of xitter...

bertsy.bsky.social•3 days ago

Given their competence so far, I wouldn't be surprised if they just pulled a Plame-esque outing of a covert agent because they couldn't find her in the building and thought she was a fake employee.

michelecollins5411.bsky.social•3 days ago

they just needed a name to put on the wrong side of the v on the lawsuits. I bet she's making a thousand calls right now.

courtneyflaggg.bsky.social•3 days ago

But what a month

billnemacheck.bsky.social•3 days ago

This sure seems like they're making her the patsy.

kevdog.bsky.social•3 days ago

I had a tentative job offer from USDS last September, pending FBI background check and was excited to start work. I even planned to take the job after the election because that’s what service is about.

I am grateful that it didn’t work out, I’d have been fired by now.

sheilabane.bsky.social•3 days ago

Sounds like she’s the federal worker who isn’t even working

duimaze.bsky.social•3 days ago

What were the 5 things she accomplished last week in her email to DOGE? 🤔

RE:

kaboombox.bsky.social•3 days ago

She’s the DEI fall guy they came up with last night. A 2 for 1 deal, blame a Woman and protect Elon.

dougom.bsky.social•3 days ago

If I were her, I’d stay in Mexico.

sharkman1963.bsky.social•3 days ago

Do you think they want her?

dougom.bsky.social•3 days ago

For all we know she’s just a fall guy (fall woman?). I decline to pass judgement with so little data.

Of course, you have a point: If I were Mexico, I wouldn’t want *any* Americans.
