you don’t need the press corps anymore — just pull out your phone. AOC did a livestream that spurred THOUSANDS of calls to congress.

the msm wants drama? give it to them. like right now dems should have a fucking PARADE of fired federal workers out there putting a face on all this.

Launch a youtube channel ASAP (i.e yesterday) called Fired Feds Talk and interview a different person every day about what has happened and what it means to have lost your job without warning. Make it visceral. So many fucking talented videographers and editors out there could make it happen

raygunzzz.bsky.social•115 days ago

So you think they were fired "for no reason" ?

When the Dems win the Presidency, the press loves to interview the disenfranchised Trump voter. When Trump wins, they still interview the disenfranchised Trump voter. How about interviewing the voters concerned about maintaining our democracy?

You definitely just descibed @npr.org and why I don’t listen to them much anymore except for Wait Wait and the Saturday music programs.

In fairness those stories have been happening a fair amount

Yeah, I’ve heard and read all the stories about his voters I care to. I’m done trying to understand.

I quit when they started wearing gold diapers, like wut.

FWIW, the culty MAGA crap is clearly bad & some will never be successfully retrieved from it, but there aren't anywhere near enough of those to win elections.

Trump casuals who wanted border security & thought he'd be good on econ speaking out legit decreases risk of "Red on Blue" mass violence.

I wouldn’t hold my breath.

hrumph!

FUCK REPUBLICANS!

That would require the media not be Quislings.

But they don’t want that they want Trump to take us jumped up workers down a peg because the daddy issues and evil are their core

leatherwick.bsky.social•115 days ago

Yes, this. My friends in the Dept. of Ed and FEC are terrified and people who work there really believe in the work they’re doing and they’re getting fired cause some old guys don’t understand what society is.

leatherwick.bsky.social•115 days ago

Also, one of my friends worked at HUD before Ed and was telling me stories about coworkers who had scars from the Oklahoma City Bombing cause the HUD had large offices in the Fed building. This isn’t just people collecting a paycheck, these are civil servants being kicked to the curb for no reason

Grow up freak !

We have pre-k teachers in my county terrified their job will be gone. As the head start programs for their schools are funded with federal grants.

b-b-but the diner nazis are so dapper in their ill-fitting suits and just have concerns about which criminal skull bumps signal a need for preemptive execution!

peakjinx.bsky.social•115 days ago

Especially stories like this one where the Trump voter decided to believe an offhand promise from a man who is a notorious liar and, unrecorded in the article, felt that his vicious racism, misogyny and homophobia weren’t deal breakers.

casssax.bsky.social•115 days ago

Yes, 100%

You need to be more worried about your local oligarchs than the ones half a world away. They aren't doing this to benefit Russia. They're doing this to benefit themselves. Absent Russia, they'd still be self-dealing and destroying like this.

Measles outbreak... Nah. All fake.. loo

Those workers should separate into groups of who they voted for so people can see it effected maga too, they will eat their own
