Yes, I know. It's more of a comment on the whole shebang. Elon doesn't 'work' for the government, according to that document from this morning (last night?).
So, how is he firing anyone
🎼We need a Luigi....I'm holding out for Luigi 'til the end of the night.....He's gotta' be strong and he's gotta be fast.....and he's gotta' be fresh from the fight....we need a Luigi....🎶🎶🎶🎵
This is the first time I've heard of a museum or library being *over*funded, or inefficient. We can stretch a dollar like you wouldn't believe. I suppose it was only a matter of time before they started going after heritage institutions
I went to the protest in D.C. yesterday. Judging by the turnout, the USA is still asleep. I didn't expect it to be millions of people, but it didn't even reach the Mall from the Capitol.
I know you probably get inundated with comments and may not see this. BUT if you do, can you start calling out "the republican party" allowed trump/elon to do [insert]. Let's make the republican party take ownership of the devil they released!
Who did he fire? Let me see the notification who signed it dated it where did it come from? I wanna see it. Please don't just tell me I want proof God dammit.
Richard fucking Nixon's Library is still open. Ronald fucking Reagan's library is still open. George Bush's Presidential Library is still open . You see the theme Here? John F Kennedy was a Democrat.
Since Trump is defunding National parks and National Libraries let’s stop supporting Mega churches and support parks where a good hiking puts me closer to God and the Library helps me learn.
Bingo. Trump has said he will pave over the grass of the White House Rose Garden, which President Kennedy personally commissioned Bunny Mellon to create. (Melania Trump destroyed the carefully planned Rose Garden plantings during his 1st term.) He thinks he can eradicate JFK’s legacy. He can’t.
Felon47 is doing the same to Obama & Biden. He's a jealous little child who thinks he can erase the better men before him. He will never measure up. He will always be nothing but trash.
Hey Bluesky can we have a dislike button please? I want to engage with this post — acknowledging how terrified I am that this is happening — without it seeming like I ❤️ the closure of a national historical archive by tyrants.
Why not both? A knitting site called Ravelry has multiple buttons on its forums: educational, agree, disagree, love. And one more I can't remember. So maybe a book for educational, check mark for agree, and the heart?

Elon and Trump’s firings are not only dangerous, cruel, and heartless but also just ridiculous. Why, why,oh fucking why fire people from here?? Can we just stop this insanity?
🎃🎃During Halloween, If you want to scare a Republican, dress up as a book!! 😂😁 🍊Trusk had to close that library, bc Republicans don't read, & they fear words, fear sentences, and most Especially-- fear books!📚📖!!!! 📖📗📘📙📚📚📖 AHHHH!! #scary #books #republicansdontread #Halloween #Republicans
Movement idea: You can't be a decent person and work for Musk at the same time, because he has turned out to be a socially dangerous sadist. Quit his company. Now. It just so happens that it is your act, your voice, that can damage evil on a scale that is comparable to i. e. the destroyed USAID.
ECONOMIC BLACKOUT DAY Feb. 28. Consider halting all purchases for 24 hours of gas, fast food, and big corporations. Plan in advance, buy local. Call in to work, if you are able. Grind out economy to a halt. Let them it’s We the People. Participate any way you can. https://events.pol-rev.com/
Boston globe article says it closed for a day since the museum staff working there were laid off and there weren’t enough to keep it open. But they’ll be open again after reconfiguring.
While I appreciate the heroism of the remaining fed employees that would work like crazy to keep the doors open, I think it’s better overall to let them close. Let the world see how essential all these fired people are and what the public will
miss out on when they’re gone.
Understand. I should clarify I meant things like parks and museums. Certainly not health care, social services, etc. We have to take care of the vulnerable.
The last time the government allowed the parks to “close” they actually just kept the rangers out, people still drove around gates or through them to trash the parks- even uprooting Joshua trees in California and spray painting boulders and trees in Rocky Mountain np, along with endless trash
Which I think is exactly what they want, so they can say “see? NPS failed you, let’s have private companies run these parks. Some drilling over there, a resort town over there and charge Disney world daily ticket prices just to come through the park’s entrance”
What's up with the Thug-In-Chief? He took over The Kennedy Center of Performing Arts in DC. He closes the JFK library and Museum in Boston. Why does he up against the JFK? Jealousy?
But how can he fire them when he in no way legally works for the government? I mean, genuinely, can people start just getting on his brain level and say, "No, you're not the boss of me?" and refuse to leave????
Unfortunately, if not congress, the courts, federal employees,or the GOP, I fear it will be up to the American people to stand up to the administration en masse until any of the above decide to do their jobs.
When they do this, and their own building security protects them, trump’s “federal security officers” show up and escort the actual building’s security out, and then they do the same to whoever was refusing to be fired. DOE got footage of some of it when congress was being kept outside.
They had to close today due to the staff being fired, but will open back up tomorrow. Who knows long term what it means & they seem to be looking for clarity…like all of us these days. Unreal.
And still no transparency as to the why’s or the evidence and screw due process… this is where we are thanks to the egomaniac billionaire and his literal minions.

I won't share because I won't share pics of him, but when asked later by press to clarify he just kept saying Elon was a patriot and then changed the subject
It really feels like they want to start a revolution. With this many people laid off, idle hands and discontent often leads to mass movements like during 2020
If they do, we seniors remember the effect the National Guard Kent State shooting had back in 1970. It sparked outrage, demonstrations, and rioting that had Nixon hiding at Camp David to prevent the mobs from getting to him. Martial law leads to consequences like these.
“Ask not what your country can do for you to enrich themselves at the expense of Americans—ask what you can do for your country. Like standing up and protesting this nonsense Elonald is doing.”
Don't forget about the Measles outbreak , Bird Flu, Highest rate in years of the Flu.. the list goes on and on. There are so many more outbreaks of illnesses that at this point I cannot remember.
This. So much this. Looked into whether or not US Marshals would be able to go in and arrest these criminals. Nope. The Marshals are under Bondi now. And all of them would have to be standing together, else other Marshals would arrest the arresters. #needoptions
Today is the day they come for libraries. Library of Congress is also trying to ram through changes to the controlled vocabulary that all libraries use, in a single day with little option for meaningful discussion on implications, as has always happened in the past.
It’s such a mindfuck that I’m sitting in my warm house, we’re snowed in, I have a yummy drink and a good book and at the same time our country is crumbling.
Why would we expect a president who can't read have any regard for presidential libraries? Maybe a presidential fast food joint would be of more interest to him . . . and his followers.
I'm sorry, but I seriously don't understand this. If someone who wasn't a person in a management position in my organization tried to fire me, I'd probably laugh at them and not go anywhere. HE HAS NO AUTHORITY TO FIRE ANYONE! HE'S NOT YOUR EFFIN BOSS, Y'ALL!
Kick the f*cking door in and go sit back at your desk until you're forcibly removed. And then do it again tomorrow. And the next day. And the day after that. I don't believe these people are doing everything they can to fight this. If this happened to me, I would 100% be in jail by like the 2nd day.
Modern work requires access to data and systems that have been captured, no work will get done regardless. They targeted and controlled that first. When it comes to data security nothing is more powerful than physical access.
I understand that. What I'm saying is that even if I couldn't actually do any work, I would become such a pain in these people's asses that I would likely get arrested. I would kick the door in and sit at my desk even if I couldn't do any work. 🤷
Make them trespass walk you out. The goal of stopping work was successful still for so many who are terminated or are trying to make up for missing coworkers.
But remember, he’s not actually in charge. He just put BigBallz into the position to steal all our tax data and to turn medicare on and off between his madd tweetz and dank memes yo.
CALL EVERY REPUBLICAN, REPEATEDLY. HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE. THEY’RE THE ONES GIVING DEMOCRACY TO A FOREIGN NAZI.
The local news channels in Boston about that library were taken over by maga. I thought they loved JFK and want to know all about his shooting, so that's a bit mysterious.
I don't understand how a person who is not employed by the government in any capacity has the authority to fire people in several branches of the government.
Thank you! I call 1 dem, 1 republican, and at least 1 committee everyday. When either party does good, I thank them but when they fuck up I make sure to shame the shit oil of them.
But what about the rest of the Kennedys? Looking for them to speak up again. Musk, Muskrats and GOP won’t care, but maybe some of the complacent US public will wake up.
I'm curious about the how stories. So they got their keys taken? They don't get paid anymore? What happens if people keep showing up? Is someone blocking entry? This isn't the apprentice for Christ's sake....
That makes sense (would be the for my work) I guess I'm wondering how we tell these stories. And what happens if an entire workforce continues to show up en masse. Where is the next escalation if the people doing the firing don't have the authority in the first place? Can others join in protecting?
It's just insane. No, Leon, the same people of the US don't want to be just another third world country where the middle class lead poor lives and only the really rich get a good start andard of living. Everyone should pay taxes to fund these markers of civilization.
Dems have been rallying and screaming about this guy for years - it’s the GOP republicans who are silently idly letting the country and the constitution fall under this guys devastation
Comments
Let's just go in and start hiring people.
So, how is he firing anyone
A) to fuck off
and
B) You're trespassing, and we're calling the cops.
Or did he just disclaim the guy?
"You know we don't really think he was that great of a president"
Garbage human
Maybe a good thing Obama’s isn’t yet open?
Where ARE our living past Presidents and why haven’t they spoken up as a united front???
Musk, Trump, agents committing treason for power/profit SUCK.
We see you banning books, bldg concentration camps, saying some ppl don’t/shouldn’t exist, stealing our money, attacking the Republic.
We won’t let you finish what you’re trying to start…
They say that they will be open tomorrow.
#fckingliars
RFK Jr happened to the Kennedys.
It's revenge for RFKJ.
miss out on when they’re gone.
