@heatherthomasaf.bsky.social All Civil servants should begin purging their social media history-& take a moment to remember your first day and how you felt when you raised your hand to take the oath “to support and defend The United States Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic”.

microblap.bsky.social•108 days ago

Really no reason that DJT should NOT be referred to as either "Herr Trump" or "the Furher."

jvmoorewnc.bsky.social•108 days ago

My younger grandson just was hired at the DOJ. I’m guessing he’ll be required to sign a loyalty oath to that man. 😳😞

elonsamuskydouche.bsky.social•108 days ago

And the moment that happens is the moment we will literally declare revolution & the resistance goes from talking about it to being about it

theimmortalinfo.bsky.social•108 days ago

This is the “gut check” moment that all Americans need to wait for.

The moment he aims to throw away our Constitution and submit his own is the exact moment we need to be ready to strike them at the heart.

Anyone who submits needs forceful removal.

dandenicola.bsky.social•108 days ago

This is why I followed you here from X, your commentary is peerless in putting this moment in proper context and articulating stakes!

gregorydoodles.bsky.social•108 days ago

I would imagine sooner rather than later Trump will install a STATE run media group and close down MSM.

rsgeek.bsky.social•108 days ago

He doesn't need to -- he already has Fox, and the rest of the MSM (see Washington Post, USA Today) has started practicing genuflection.

gmessy30.bsky.social•108 days ago

Rick Steves released an excellent short video, unfortunately on X only, about this. You can Google it, and view it without having to logue in.

Take a look at the Nuremberg Laws: this app is the best way to see them in the order they were introduced.

"Local government must suspend Jewish teachers."
"Jewish Judges are suspended."
https://cafe-haberland.de/en/app-places-of-remembrance/
Substitute "Expert" or "Liberal" for "Jewish" and you'll get the idea.

I view the entire immigration bluster as paving way for varying classes of citizens. We will be digitally tagged. First to prove citizenship then loyalty Oath Takers w degrees of restraints below it. Like the plan for generals applied to citizens. Loyalty is the only card to play for most. Kids..

I honestly don't think the orange stain would want to waste money on housing them ... they can no longer make money for him, so, goodbye

socaljerry.bsky.social•108 days ago

Perhaps, it would be a direct reflection on how he sees himself and compares to his favorite dictators.

daxleone.bsky.social•108 days ago

russcazier.bsky.social•109 days ago

I have been saying it for years from when I was talking about it a bit on Facebook to when I became more attacked by MAGA this year, and I became even more vocal. I called Trump a Fascist back in 2017 because I could see the signs, and he is even worse now but has no checks and balances.

sylalexasha.bsky.social•108 days ago

Same here, and unfortunately we've been proven right

russcazier.bsky.social•108 days ago

I hate to say it. It really makes me wonder about people sometimes and how well we are teaching history in schools.

sylalexasha.bsky.social•108 days ago

I think the GOP cuts to public education bore fruit. For me, I took a WWII class in college which I ended up loving and then dove in from there.

demonseedaliendna.bsky.social•108 days ago

I learned about all this shit in my crappy public school! These stupid motherfuckers have handed the United States over to the enemy.
Along with those mentioned, they also gather up veterans. Think Red Dawn. First they'll go through all the gun regs and start seizing firearms. Stupid motherfuckers.

russcazier.bsky.social•108 days ago

I hear ya!

grannynannynews.bsky.social•107 days ago

Civics classes have long ago become dinosaurs so each generation of teachers knows less and less about how our democracy functions, its history and its meaning for personal freedom.

russcazier.bsky.social•107 days ago

It's something that we really need to bring back into our education system. Especially with everything going on right now and what is going on in the world. A more well-informed group of citizens will make for better decisions in the future.

rebsiot.bsky.social•108 days ago

Can I ask a dumb question? Why is Biden so forthcoming and amicable with a smooth transition?

bradaggie.bsky.social•108 days ago

Civil Service Protections
Merit System: Most federal employees are part of the competitive civil service system, meaning they are hired based on merit, not political affiliation. This is intended to ensure continuity, professionalism, and nonpartisanship in the federal workforce.

bradaggie.bsky.social•108 days ago

Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act (1883): This foundational law established that federal employees could not be dismissed for political reasons. It was created specifically to end the "spoils system" and limit patronage appointments.

bradaggie.bsky.social•108 days ago

Title 5 of the U.S. Code: This legal code governs federal employees, laying out strict rules for hiring, promotion, and termination. It includes protections against arbitrary dismissal or demotion, which can only be overridden in cases of poor performance or misconduct after a rigorous process.

malacandra.me•108 days ago

This will be taken all the way to the Supreme Court which, by a 6-3 majority, will rule it unconstitutional.

steadyhabits.bsky.social•108 days ago

you mean 6-3 constitutional with this Court.

malacandra.me•108 days ago

I was replying to Aggie Brad.

malacandra.me•108 days ago

The existing law being cited here, which protects federal workers and which would interfere with Trump firing many thousands of career civil servants and packing the bureaucracy with his loyalists, will be ruled unconstitutional by this court.

@tribelaw.bsky.social Trump
has come very close to uttering that favorite (because it is both racist & ethnic) word common to both MAGA and ‘30s Hiltler fanatics: “pureblood”

malacandra.me•108 days ago

He already had concentration camps at the border during his first term.

And he’s promised to deport millions of immigrants.

They’d have to be detained *somewhere* while awaiting any potential repatriation, right?

And this would create a lack of agricultural workers… so: slave labor.

barb88.bsky.social•108 days ago

Who will be the slaves?

malacandra.me•108 days ago

The incarcerated.

tcar2000.bsky.social•108 days ago

Women & girls. When you have no bodily autonomy, are not able to make your own medical decisions, & are subjected to forced childbirth, you are a slave. Rape will be decriminalized (if our president does it, how could it be wrong?) & the age of consent abolished.

eljaygeeel.bsky.social•109 days ago

From some examples that I know of and therefore surmise, purging is a standard procedure for dictators and authoritarians. Stalin and such... I'll guess Mao Zedong... Jong-un's father / grandfather... Mussolini... the various Caesars...
Is there any of those who did not purge opponents and such?
