DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States
Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...
A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data
A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

The disrespectful actions by Trump and Vance were fully orchestrated in advance. Two thugs playing to the cameras for their Russian benefactors and extra MAGA points. Disgraceful.

I think everyone should get to know the west African term “wahala”.
It generally means “chaos”, “confusion”, or “drama”. A clusterfuck.
I’ve been on a mission for years to use it more regularly in my work.
Because—- *gestures at everything*
