If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

Who will be there to enforce our laws?

sandraslp.bsky.social•85 days ago

The lawless executive branch is violating COTUS & many laws like the Pendleton Act. What's left? The courts?

echo-my-soul.bsky.social•85 days ago

Precisely.

This is actually what class action attorneys were designed for. Release the hounds of hell. 🤞

jazzisblue.bsky.social•84 days ago

When we previously crossed paths, I urged legal as the way forward. That said, we have all seen how slowly the wheels of justice can grind. I know this can't be easy for those experiencing the realities near-term. Especially true when so many urging resistance can't be bothered to resist themselves.

sandraslp.bsky.social•84 days ago

Well guess what? The courts are our last bastion. RW SCOTUS has released the monster & perhaps by now they might realize that soon f47 will come after them. Or perhaps Musk will, since he's drowning in his power grabs. FWIW Public Citizen launched a suit moments after f47 took office. It strikes at

jazzisblue.bsky.social•84 days ago

Agreed that courts seem to be the only branch standing between us and utter disaster in this moment. I'm also extremely disappointed by those who ignored the importance of courts and down ballot voting, and only cared about who was elected president every our years. This downfall began long sgo.

heart of the matter--DOGE.It violates 1972 Act involving Federal Advisory Committees.Want to do something instead of feeling helpless?Donate to them. @publiccitizen.bsky.social .We sure as hell aren't getting any help from Democratic leaders in Congress. Many talk the talk, but don't walk the walk.📌

jazzisblue.bsky.social•84 days ago

I don't feel helpless because of the current situation. I am exhausted by foreseeing the train wreck. A hit dog will holler. So now a whole bunch of people are being affected by the domino effect of leaving government on auto-pilot. We blame congress and politicians. The villains are eligible voters

Litigate the 💩 out of him.

micahbergdale.bsky.social•85 days ago

We need legal defense funds to step up. Do not comply! We need our civil servants.

bryanttl1953.bsky.social•85 days ago

Makes a lot of sense to me. They are working awfully hard on this. Since this is coming from the Trump administration I wouldn’t trust them for any amount of money, Trump hates paying his bills, he would rather litigate. Right now funds can’t be verified after March without Congress approval.

furmom.bsky.social•85 days ago

Cannot collect unemployment if you quit. Make them fire you.

yourlittledogtoo.bsky.social•85 days ago

They should all file a class acting suir against the administration and seek an injunction against any terminations without cause.

maurscode.bsky.social•85 days ago

How can we find out who, besides Amanda Scales and the teen whose family owns lesser Evil snack foods, is working for Ellon Musk?

Resistance within the law

Fire them
Easy your Gone

jadax7.bsky.social•85 days ago

You clearly know nothing a out the Civil Service Reform Act. Read it and learn.

jenwood.bsky.social•85 days ago

There are a lot of uneducated and informed opinions about federal employees out there. You don't have to guess their provenance...

noreen900.bsky.social•85 days ago

Sounds right to me.

kimkappes.bsky.social•85 days ago

Isn’t forcing someone to resign the same as firing them?

ejat.bsky.social•85 days ago

Off topic, but House Res 7 was introduced. Handmaid's Tale Healthcare. 🚨 Can we get ahead of it?

jazzisblue.bsky.social•84 days ago

Joy, stay on the front line speaking truth. I see how you are being ignored and dismissed. I see how "influencers" with 1/10 of your insight are being elevated. I understand how difficult and exasperating it must be to fight for a country where you are devalued, even by your own. Hang in there.

outwest42.bsky.social•85 days ago

So true !

lewimom.bsky.social•85 days ago

Joy -Ann Reid is tRump going to cancel Black History Month? Your thoughts?

sandraslp.bsky.social•85 days ago

Can pro Bono lawyers represent these people & sue? The Pendleton Act is being violated.📌

kristinelogie.bsky.social•85 days ago

Good morning. When are you going to have Ms Gill on?

michealocoileain.bsky.social•85 days ago

Joy, it's time to get busy doing the hard work of the good work.

mamafi.bsky.social•85 days ago

They figured anyone who wanted to run from their job would self select then they could hatsss them

rudelyvangelder.bsky.social•85 days ago

The expected outcome of Trump and his entire criminal cadre wholly believing *everyone* serves at the pleasure of the Glorious Leader.

helenpaull.bsky.social•84 days ago

And if you resign you don't get unemployment. Do not comply, make them make you leave.

wefingtoldyouso.bsky.social•85 days ago

We are literally watching a man who stole the election, with help from our foreign enemies, as he openly works to destroy out country and rob it blind.

It’s time to call Morgan & Morgan 😆👍

Federal employees - Preserve any and all records (leave, pay, health care) which show your employment status. This will help to fight any potential malicious, illegal reclassification by Musk or other FOTUS agents. DO NOT ACCEPT ANY PERSONNEL OFFERS from them!!!!

jadax7.bsky.social•85 days ago

I download my eOPF yesterday. This is terrifying. I have 27 years in.

marebo07.bsky.social•85 days ago

I hope and pray that they see this one Joy!!

jadax7.bsky.social•85 days ago

And, it isn't working. I don't know any fed who has resigned. Also, the Thursday email stating that our jobs are low productivity, just pissed us off even more. Stay strong fellow feds! 💪 Don't succumb to their attempted coercion.

karefnp.bsky.social•85 days ago

IKR?! The FAQ email so demeaning
