OPMs email servers trying to hold back all the external troll emails they’re getting in response to DOGE.

Are you bored tonight? Send your five accomplishments, maybe your shopping list, or your five thoughts on Elon from the past week to OPM at [email protected].

Elon’s mass harassment email to all federal employees underscores the importance of having unions to represent workers against abusive management.

DOGE is like if Fyre Festival was a government agency.

Valuing diversity is not a crime Installing white men in every position of power is not a meritocracy

This is happening because Elon Musk tweeted to kill the December funding bill & all the bipartisan health policies Congress negotiated fell apart. Expanding telehealth brings DOWN costs. It makes health care MORE efficient, and it’s SO important for rural patients.

"The crowd again started shouting 'tax Elon,' 'tax the wealthy,” “tax the rich' and 'tax the billionaires.'" The county went 68% for Trump www.lagrandeobserver.com/news/local/r...

x.com/bluestein/st... Fed worker salary is 4% of fed budget Keeping feds is LESS expensive than firing/rehiring and losing services Probationary workers are not "duplicitous" They're setting up the argument "we had to cut medicaid cause we didn't fire enough feds" Why doesn't Elon do more with less

Tonight we proposed an amendment to ensure that the Republican budget doesn’t raise prescription drug costs for seniors on Medicare. And guess what? Republicans blocked it — just like they opposed us when we gave Medicare the power to lower drug prices.

WTF 🤬😳 Each day brings a new low

From Pew (August 2024). Postal Service has a 72% favorable rating.

The Honorable Judge Reyes: “I am telling you right now that there are people who are neither male or female. And so the premise of the executive order is just incorrect.” 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I … cannot deal with this one tonight, but y’all should see it. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Take notes, @governorferguson.bsky.social

Last night, President Musk and his reek, Trump, said they wouldn't touch Medicaid. Well, they lied. Today, Trump endorses the cuts. Nice, nice.

I have seen people calling for federal worker strikes. Understandable! However, that’s not possible. Here’s an explainer. www.govexec.com/management/2...

I cannot HOLD THE LINE and also strike. People need to understand what we we can and cannot do here.

We are currently ruled by people who do not know what they do not know and that is incredibly dangerous

The glee that some people exhibit while rooting for your downfall as a civil servant is not something I will ever forget. Or forgive.

Yes. All true

I've had 2 ectopic pregnancies. This absolutely fucking TERRIFYING.

Folks, I can’t stress this enough: Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit! Lock your credit!

💥ATTENTION FEDS💥 All the termination letters going out that we've seen use "inadequate performance" as the reason for termination. SAVE YOUR PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS. Tell your friends who aren't on bluesky! Probationary employees can't be fired for "poor performance" if their performance is not poor

For perspective, when Nixon made a comment calling Charles Manson guilty it almost caused a mistrial

They don't want to teach history so they can repeat it.

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen. 1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.

Why is Musk, who has no official role, sitting down and doing interviews with Trump in the White House?

A Black man with 13 kids by six different women wouldn’t be allowed near the White House much less allowed to run the shadow government.
