None of these federal workforce executive orders are designed to help the American People. They are designed to stoke fear, sow chaos, and get experts who would otherwise push back on harmful policy to quit their jobs or be fired.

I’ve seen Trump attack Newsom, I’ve seen him spread disinformation, I’ve seen him blame Biden & I’ve seen lie about the state’s emergency response to the crisis, but has he extended any condolences? Has he expressed any worry or concern? Promised a helping hand?
Did I miss that?

This is why the next administration plans to get rid of NOAA. So we don’t know how broken things are and we don’t demand change. #sick
NOAA's data is in, and it's not encouraging.
2024 was the second hottest year on record, and "the Arctic tundra has switched from a carbon sink to a source of emissions."

“We don’t want anyone to know our product will kill you” - Elon (probably)
The Trump transition team wants to scrap a car-crash reporting rule opposed by Elon Musk's Tesla.
Removing the provision would particularly benefit Tesla, which has reported most of the crashes — more than 1,500 — to federal safety regulators under the program. www.reuters.com/business/aut...

"Repeat after me: there was no 'landslide'. There was no 'blowout'. There was no 'sweeping' mandate given to Trump by the electorate. The numbers don’t lie."

In 2024, we have a new post-election lie – Trump didn’t just win, Republicans say, but he won big. He won a landslide. That’s false

How much more is the Federal Government doing now than then? Maybe not as much “government waste” as people are led to believe.
The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

Not sure whether the Elon/Vivek "DOGE" frolic is going to raise more Anti-Deficiency Act issues (by doing stuff) or Federal Advisory Committee Act issues (by proposing stuff).
But it'll sure be a litigation bonanza, either way...
