I have colleagues in Silver Spring (NOAA HQ) who, let's just say "witnessed" Elon's team at facility and overheard them at various times. Apparently there was a conversation with "giggles" about plans to cancel non-SpaceX launch contracts thru NASA citing "inefficiency". That's pretty wild stuff.

A witch hunt has begun at the FBI. Employees are required to provide information by Tuesday and are being encouraged to report on their coworkers. The FBI questionnaire asks agents about their roles in various cases, including whether they made arrests or appeared in court, among other details.

USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

At the EPA, employees hired within the past year have been notified that “the agency reserves the right to terminate you immediately,” without justification. Reports suggest that demonstrating loyalty to the current administration’s agenda may improve the chances of retaining employment.
