Trump administration is planning to use polygraphs to assess federal employee loyalty. There are ways to manipulate polygraph results, and we will provide guidance to coalition members. Polygraph results are not admissible in court due to their potential for false positives and negatives.

Seems like a complete waste of time and money.
Oh, and one of those "personality" tests in Hello magazine.
All as effective as a polygraph and equally inadmissible.
It was for a convenience store job lol. 😂

The machine mainly measures galvanic skin response, respiration rate, blood pressure/heart beat.
Again, though, it's only as good as the interrogator. Remember that point!

When you're relaxed breathing is in the abdominal area but when nervous or on high alert you breathe from your chest.
Think about it and watch body language. Short breaths come from the chest area, so remember to take long relaxed breaths into...

If forced into that situation and it's a must, then follow your counsel's direction to the T.
Don't understand any circumstances elaborate. Yes/No, only.
Clinch on true answers and relax on false ones.
....just my two cents. ❤️🔥
Trump still thinks it’s a good tool 😂
Saying they are “required at all clearance levels” is false.
Polygraphs have been LEGAL since their inception. But their validity and reliability have made them inadmissible in court.
Forensic professional here who has studied this and had to explain in court before.
You’ll either be a union man or a thug for JH Blair.”
Tyrants historically have done poorly in this Nation. We can never get back what they have taken, but to get we will make it through this.
Thank you all you good Government Employees.
I couldn’t find the source for the polygraphs, but DOE and some fed intelligence agencies require it.
Because if we do make it out, EVERYfuckingTHING is going to change.
These people truly are dangerous idiots for thinking of this.
Good luck your workers x
The more you know!
And don't be too sure the one giving the poly will be honest about the results. As you said, there's room for "interpretation".
Boom, fired. Which is also illegal but the NLRB is basically dead so who gonna listen?
This seems insane and laughable, but they are serious & should be stopped by all means. No use to compare to nazi germany. This is the "evil twins / Elon Musk" dictatorship, and they only just begun.
It's like this scene in The Wire when Bunk puts DeShawn's hand in a copier and tells him it's a lie detector. DeShawn believes him and confesses to all kinda crimes.
I am so tired of having to comment “wtf” all damn day.

Learning how to maintain composure while being yelled at and berated (which will be how they break people testing) will be essential.
They're going to drill sergeant at folks they don't like, and then call them traitors.

Also, they can just ask and I will be very happy to tell them what I think of them and where they can stick their polygraph probes.
Wait until next week.
✌️😀💙🌈
The question is who will stop him?
Polygraphs are so subjective.
Oh, you’ve got a machine that can read my autistic social cues? Good luck…
