Well played.
We have completed our very successful attack on Hawaii. All planes are now outside of America air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Pearl Harbor. All planes are safely on their way home. Congratulations to our great Japanese Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE! Thank you for your attention to this matter

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

Now the Trump administration is importing sex traffickers and rapists. GOP, the party of family values and anti-groomers right? Every accusation is an admission.

This is a big deal, y'all. Federal health websites are being stripped of content or removed in their entirety. Stick with this thread for a look at what's disappeared so far! 1/x

The blatant corruption is unbelievable. Now both Trump and Melania have created financial vehicles to collect brides out in the open. This is all BEFORE they take office. Just imagine what the future holds.

America awards Elon Musk with billions of dollars in government contracts. Elon purchases Twitter with 2 Russian oligarchs and uses it to buy Trump an election for Vlad. America continues subsidizing Musk who works with Putin.

Despite the attempted coverup we’re going to see all of the evidence from the House Ethics Committee.

But no matter how salacious the details are, they will simply confirm what we already knew —- that Matt Gaetz is a skeevy chode.

I will forever remain deeply ashamed of having supported the winning presidential candidate in 2016.

But I shall always be extremely proud of having supported the losing candidate in 2024.
