Please verify the stuff you post on this website. There are tons of fakes out there whose only goal is to induce outrage, and collect clout.

Delicious.

NEW: An email sent to several US agencies this evening—including those handling classified work—demands workers send 5 accomplishments from the past week. “The memo…closely resembles a note Musk sent to Twitter staff in June 2023” @zoeschiffer.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/doge-e...

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isn’t even the boss, he’s just a dick.

That guy is Executive Director, Naval Sea Systems Command. He's basically the guy in charge of making sure the boats are good boats. And he has to send a frantic email out telling everybody to treat DOGE like a phishing attack.

FUN FACT: maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority AND The resistance is the MAJORITY! We will defeat you as your only plan is destroying our country while lining your pockets. Keep flooding the zone. We’re watching & we will win!!

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].

The MAGAs are really, really blatantly firing a ton of women in the federal government and military for the crime of being women, and it is embarrassing when people ignore or downplay this.

Not really giving Christian values a good selling point 🤷🏻‍♀️

Poor bastards on nuclear subs will surface in a month and find they’ve been fired.

I just spit my beer. 🤣

NEW — The National Treasury Employees Union Chapter 282 just emailed its ~8,000 employee members strongly advising them NOT to reply to the “What did you do last week?” email from OPM/Musk.

This. This orange fuck job is preparing. Time for the military to remember to what they took an oath.

NEW - President Trump is expected to name FBI Director Kash Patel as the acting head of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), according to sources familiar with the matter. A DOJ official says that Patel is expected to be sworn in as acting director early next week.

This is how I would respond to the email Musk has had sent to government employees (not legal advice). 1. Refused to violate the law. 2. Refused to violate the Constitution. 3. Refused to bow or scrape. 4. Refused to bend a knee. 5. Deleted this stupid email.

Part of the overall fight of MAGA is to rewrite history -- to pretend desegregation didn't happen, that women never left the house, and that the population of this country isn't more diverse. It's a project to create what they see as the Soul of America, and why wouldn't they use violence?

If DOGE sends $5,000 checks, accept the check. Then (if you have the means) donate it to a candidate in your district running against a Trump sycophant. Donate to charities for workers. Imagine if millions of folks donated all or a portion of DOGE monies for the next election cycle or charities.
