A national general strike would require extreme coordination and the will of only a minority who go on the streets. Nonviolent protests are twice as likely to succeed as armed conflicts – and those engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change.

I’m glad they are feeling Trump’s love for them and their States Farmers after only 46 days!

Let me see who Kansas elected, oh I am good. They must be happy too with their winner

I know, just call Senator Moran and Marshall. Surely they’ll stop the firings, won’t they?

This is all across the nation for all federal workers. It will be disastrous for the economy.
SSA doesn't own many of the buildings they work in, they lease them, so rumor has it that the field offices will stay open until the lease is up. Which for many will be within the next year or two.

I wonder how many VOTED for that fat orange PATHETIC excuse for a HUMAN, let alone, a REAL MAN! I feel ZERO pain for those that did!

desertdogster.bsky.social•2 days ago

if only they could piss off the electorate so badly that they remember in 26 and 28. That is asking quite a bit.

It’s not like kc has jobs all over

I will repeat:

THIS is the uncertainty, fear, & loss that t-Rump voters wanted for OTHER PEOPLE.

They wanted LGBTQIA2s+, IMMIGRANTS & POC to be hunted, to live in fear, & their lives be destroyed.

They are getting a taste of the medicine they gleefully wished on others.

May they learn empathy.

Fuck Kansas, they voted that fascist in
They get what they deserve

Kansas still has lingering economic damage after the boneheaded, Reagan-inspired, trickle-down economics implemented by that Republican moron, Sam Brownback. When will Republicans stop voting against themselves?

Kansas is a red hot MAGA state. Btw, these jobs won't be coming back as this is a prelude for making a move on reducing social security.

All red states, just saying...

fullthrottlefx.bsky.social•2 days ago

Hitting them in the red states, at least.

Those people need to feel some real pain to make their eyes open up to reality.

Enjoy, Kansas City!

Kansas is bright red. They wanted Trump - they got him. 🤷‍♀️

MAGA didn’t think he meant them! But Trump, who demands loyalty, is loyal to no one.

The biggest emotion I feel right now is the lack of empathy for our countries people. How could this be good? I know that people work hard and that includes all work and especially the fed government. It’s just sad.

Is it me or are the Republican states getting really hit with his cuts

harrymaroudas.bsky.social•2 days ago

"face uncertainty" doesn't begin to describe how they are feeling now.

bluecarcharodon.bsky.social•2 days ago

Im curious, who did they vote for?

warriorone.bsky.social•2 days ago

How does this make all Americans feel- the idea of thousands of hardworking Americans now out of work- unable to support their families. Does anyone feel like buying anything? NO. Going out to eat? NO. Planning retirement or a vacation? NO.
