And this is, again, how we know all the rhetoric from the right about protecting children is absolute bullshit, because their solution to the labor shortage due to deported migrant workers is to suspend child labor laws, so your 14 year old can take an overnight cleaning job or whatever. Horrific

Everyone involved should lose their jobs/posts because of this (based on merit). The result - that someone got accidentally added, that it was discovered, etc. - is heinous, but the process itself demonstrates a level of unqualified incompetence that is unacceptable, even once.

If Palestine is the litmus test everybody has failed it, so it's not a surprise the West is in a dire State. The same men bombing brown & Black people indiscriminately will also snatch your white elderly Mom's social security. That's why fighting for rights can't be selective. Everybody or nobody.

Is it inefficient to design a bridge to hold more weight than it's rated for? Is it inefficient to design your plumbing to withstand unexpected abuses? People who insist that government be maximally "efficient" do not appreciate why we have government at all

To be clear, if a unelected person: a) Fires FAA employees 2) Is privy to the contract & at the communication system infrastructure built by a competitor for the FAA d) Cancels competitors contract & now has it for their company And you can’t see why that’s a conflict of interest for them…

Dems offered people in Appalachia healthcare, education, job training, tons of federal money for infrastructure projects in the area, and money to help people move to find jobs. Trump countered by lying. Most voters in Appalachia preferred the lies, and found the offers of material help insulting.

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.

they are mostly targeting black employees so this is quite literally just a repeat of woodrow wilson’s segregationist purge of the federal government

Why should the public care about the freeze on the NIH? Aside from the need for scientific pursuits to make our society better… -For every dollar we invest in NIH research, there is a $2.5 return. -Research dollars help fund universities that employ non-academics. (1/)

An Elon Musk staffer misused the U.S. Marshals Service by falsely invoking their authority to intimidate. USAID security personnel were threatened with action by the federal Marshals Service.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

Dear Humans, Trump’s hiring freeze has left his own supporters jobless and humiliated. Now, they’re begging him to fix the chaos he caused—and the irony is nothing short of divine. Grab some popcorn; it’s time for thy daily dose of schadenfreude.

Democrats just helped avert a government shutdown. President Musk and Trump failed to get what they demanded. Republicans threatened to stop paying millions of workers while Democrats once again showed that they’re the only adults in the room.

Book It! was an absolutely legendary program when I was a kid, and I firmly believe it had a huge impact on me and my intellectual growth. It saddens me that we ever got away from it.
