MARINES. Consider your oath and your honor. Think REAL. HARD. ABOUT. IT. Do not compromise your integrity. Consider your obligations to the Constitution, and to your own understanding of what is right and what is ethical. "Just following orders" is moral cowardice.

As someone who lives in Los Angeles, don’t let social or mainstream media gaslight you into thinking there’s a violent uprising taking place here. The Trump administration is trying to punish this state and this city. He’s also setting a precedent to unleash troops on Democratic cities.

I just got a report that a terminated employee from another agency got their job back after replying to the termination email with their good perf appraisal. If you are still connected, might as well try. It makes for good documentation if nothing else. Let me know. So far only this one anecdote.

You’re going to see some news articles saying THOUSANDS of feds are resigning. Um. Ya. We do data. We know what 1% of 3 million looks like. And it's a damn sight smaller than 10%. Keep it up people! As Trump installs his amoral henchmen the American people need us more than ever. Hold the line.

We can confirm that the communication ban at CDC (and presumably all of HHS) has been extended for at least another week with no specified end date. No external communication with local, state, or territorial health departments, healthcare systems, or the public. In the setting of ongoing outbreaks.

Folks (and this thing has gone around quickly), it's still unclear what has been "deleted"; as many of you have noted DirectFile remains active. Part of the danger of Government-By-Unelected-Nutball is that what's actually true is a moving target. If you RT'd my initial post, RT this as well.
