Spying on each other. Way to make everyone suspicious and destroy unity. The public is next.

The party of small government and law and order.🙄

Dems need to start Impeaching Felon Trump today and tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow…

Did Trump forget that the US Supreme Court struckdown "Separate But Equal"?

I wonder what Biden is thinking about this 😞

gtrdydmgasrcmg.bsky.social•49 days ago

Careful white women who voted for trump and are working. Because you are a DEI hire.
Disabled persons, older persons anyone other than a white male, say bye bye to your job. Going back in time. America land of opportunity taken away with a stroke of a pen.

Mothers, divorced women, it’s all a shitshow!!

Beware the Drumpfputsch.

This Canadian is mourning the loss of your Democracy…and hoping that it doesn’t sweep across our borders. We’re not fearful of immigrants and refugees. We’re terrified of the Maga mindset and the destruction of all morals and values worldwide.
Keep speaking up and stay safe ❤️

wetdogstinkin.bsky.social•49 days ago

Agree but complaining does little to fix the problem…

zandreea.bsky.social•48 days ago

Smellls like communist Romania 1960-1980s sad, so 😢

sherryleigh.bsky.social•49 days ago

It's like there's an enormous black cloud hanging over the country. And we're not sure what will drop from it, but we know it will stem from hate and injustice.

zeldatwinkletoes.bsky.social•49 days ago

This level of manipulation only works for so long. People always find a way to resist.

cuddlecat.bsky.social•48 days ago

Bring on the lawsuits!

liblar.bsky.social•49 days ago

Yep

If they fill their workplaces with straight white males who will be forced to listen to their boring stories about golf?

msparr.bsky.social•48 days ago

Employees got an email asking them to snitch on any fellow employees who might be engaging in any attempts at fairness or equality in spite of Trump’s order 🤬

leefromvt.bsky.social•49 days ago

Corporate real estate prices of his rich friends was going down, unlike the housing market. Forcing people into less efficient work places will net more cash for his rich friends. Also what about agencies like ICE and the military? Do they not get paid, or get fired if they leave the main office?

fedal11.bsky.social•49 days ago

Hopefully, they say hell with you, I'm doing the right thing.

US don't have enough prisons for people doing the RIGHT thing.

I used to be a federal employee. I am concerned about my former colleagues.

Trump wants a Nazi police state with EVERYONE scared.

dianapowers.bsky.social•48 days ago

This is how they lived in Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. No one felt safe. Your life could depend on someone you thought you could trust. This rips families and the social fabric to shreds. Some of the best things in life are based on trust, and these policies destroy that.

dakilmartin.bsky.social•49 days ago

Once again today, I was told project 2025 was leftist propaganda. As I was having a conversation with a "friend" who, in my opinion, has no skin in the game because he doesn't vote. You are seeing the game plan unfold.

blackgrl71.bsky.social•49 days ago

Also he 'thinks' he has no skin in the game. But he too, will "find out."

steinheim2.bsky.social•49 days ago

trump is hateful and racist.

#Felon47 is creating the Stasi state. If you're not familiar with the Stasi, Google it.

DEI purgers have obviously never served under fire on an effective team. Those who have all say, “Best team I ever saw was this motley crew.”

IF WE DON'T RESIST AND ARE COMPLACENT, IF WE ARE UNWILLING TO LOSE MONEY, COMFORT & SECURITY, THEN THE REPUBLIC WILL HAVE TRULY FAILED.

Hahaha because they can't read! Imbeciles wrote imbecilic executive orders.

julieajohnson.bsky.social•49 days ago

And our federal work force! Uniquely qualified civil servants who can’t be blamed for choosing a new, likely more lucrative work, over threats and intimidation.

rhodamac.bsky.social•49 days ago

“Lose” our freedoms, or “GIVE UP” our freedoms? Would you rather turn in a co-worker, or face adverse consequences? This is how they control you. With fear.
Don’t turn people in for anything! Abortions, DEI, undocumented status.

chuerta1.bsky.social•49 days ago

Boy, they're really taking this white male supremacy crap to the extreme, aren't they?

I fear, it is only the beginning of a large purge. 😢

The email address for federal workers to inform on their colleagues is [email protected].

Would be a real shame if folks flooded that inbox, rendering it useless.

sid-berman.bsky.social•49 days ago

One of the few smart MAGA policies. Suddenly Progressives forget what MLK Jr said - or dismiss it.

mkentvl.bsky.social•49 days ago

He's a lumbering, bumbling, sundowning degenerate of a human, the worst among us.

Nazi Germany has entered the US

blackgrl71.bsky.social•49 days ago

According to "Operation Paperclip," and other American Nazi party strongholds during WWII, like in Long Island or LA, I'd say they never left.

I really don't know how to respond to this rationally or intellectually without extreme anger; at what this petty, spoiled, con-man, pathological narcissist has done and is doing to this nation. It infuriates me.

Stukach was widely used in the Soviet period to describe "squealing," or informing on people to the government authorities. Trump, who has admired authoritarian rule, wants a nation of stukachi. Hitler even had children report on their parents.

chetsmom.bsky.social•49 days ago

It seems to me that a certain leader in Germany in 1933 behaved in much the same way?

twilightzonz.bsky.social•49 days ago

He wants TATTLETALES!!!!

skipb.bsky.social•49 days ago

The Gestapo (secret police) encouraged citizens, including family members, to report suspicious or “disloyal” behavior, such as anti-Nazi sentiments or aiding persecuted groups.
