A friend of mine who works in government helping veterans received an email from a south African billionaire demanding he justify his job to our draft dodging president. That's how absurd this shit is.

one of the best things about usa is african americans. they just have the best vibes and make the best contributions to making america .... like america...

Lonnie Johnson (1949- ), an African American engineer, invented the Super Soaker, a 1990s global hit. He worked for the U.S. Air Force and NASA, aiding the Galileo and Cassini missions. Holding 120+ patents, his innovations span clean energy and battery technology. #BlackHistory #USHistory

DOGE is like if Fyre Festival was a government agency.

South African management sucks I know that well RIP 🇺🇸

Jen Easterly, former CISA director, has written a post in support of CISA employees facing uncertainty: "stay strong, stay focused, and stay in the arena. Your tireless work to deter and deny our adversaries a foothold in our critical infrastructure is essential" www.linkedin.com/pulse/defend...

Fired for being Black. Fired for being a woman.

It’s a hostile takeover of the us federal government. They gonna feed those emails into an AI and start PIPing

Who would have thought the people waving around pocket-sized US Constitutions would be the same people to render that same document powerless? Who would have thought the people performatively waving their Bibles would be the first to reject the teachings of their own Christ?

the entire US is now gonna be that libertarian town that was overrun by bears

why do these guys keep doing sieg heils. what could it mean.

You can’t social media post and protest and ethically consume your way out of fascism. You need to decisively and non violently shut down the whole country. See Poland and the solidarity movement. Gandhi and India etc. violence begets violence and civil war follows suit.

This silent systemic racism is going to kick Americans in the gonads. Kick the (blacks) off welfare and healthcare (not my grandma she’s white and exempt). Sack the lazy (brown) government employees save my tax money (not me I’m white and exempt). The klept is in and they will steal everything

CISA is down 167 employees so far (I understand more to go) and reportedly NIST is about to be set on fire. NIST operate National Vulnerability Database and lots of other things. https://www.wired.com/story/the-national-institute-of-standards-and-technology-braces-for-mass-firings/

“Good luck with that, they just fired the whole privacy team,” an OPM email address responded to CNN’s FOIA request.

I would just like to add another deeply personal grievance to the pile at the feet of Elon Musk. I have had to explain to my 77-year-old mother, an incredibly smart retired senior government official, the history and cultural context of the doge meme. Her response:
