As far as I'm aware, the first documented spike in data leaving an agency after DOGE infiltration. Extensive forensic evidence.

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people:

We’ve filed suit against the Office of Personnel Management and the Department of Government Efficiency. We are asking the court to block data sharing and force DOGE to destroy any downloaded sensitive data from the OPM database.

fuck yeah to the employee who said this in the TTS all hands, on the record.

full quote in article: "I think we were on the topic of login aggregating data. It's an illegal task... The Privacy Act forbids agencies sharing personal information without consent."

Hey - federal employees: If you want to share information about what is happening inside the federal workplace...you should contact a proper reporter.
But if you want to anonymously talk to me, especially about what morale is like at your workplace, I am on Signal @dmoyn.01

New, from me: Looking closer at the effort to induce mass civil servant resignations.
*The offers are not real buyouts
*Feds should read the fine print
*If mass resignations occur, it is really bad for the rest of us

ohio legislature recently passed SB 104, which would ban transgender college students from using the bathroom that matches their gender identity

dewine is a piece of shit but there's still time to call and tell him to veto: 614-466-3555

bill status here: www.legislature.ohio.gov/legislation/...
Ohio Passes Sweeping College Trans Bathroom Ban, First In Nation After Election
The bathroom ban was attached to the "College Credit Plus" program designed to help students enter dual enrolment, and is the first anti-trans law to pass after the 2024 elections.

it's nice to see familiar faces here, but seeing something that now feels like twitter (technology, way people are engaging, thought leadership, etc) after awhile way from twitter is extremely jarring

I find it striking how in the aftermath of Helene, libraries are providing crucial community services like free wifi while cops are guarding stores with rotting food from potential "looters" instead of serving and protecting people. Worth considering how we spend local funding.
