Cars are getting bigger and more deadly and he encourages running people over. You want peaceful protest, maybe look at what elected officials inflame and exacerbate during unjust times.

President Trump has promised to attack drug gangs and called for the death penalty for street dealers. But he has also pardoned more than 20 people serving time for serious drug crimes, some involving violence.

this agreement says the employee waives any claim he might have stemming from his employment OR the deferred resignation offer itself, which to me reads like they're saying that if you sign it, you waive your ability to sue them if they breach it
Federal employees have received a copy of the deferred resignation agreement.
Contains a lot of brow-raising lines such as, "Employee waives any claim that could be brought on Employee’s behalf by another entity, including Employee’s labor union."

![Deferred Resignation Agreement
This agreement is between [AGENCY] and the Employee identified below.
WHEREAS, on or about January 28, 2025, OPM circulated a memorandum to all [AGENCY] employees (Fork in the Road Memo) offering them a voluntary deferred resignation option. The offer allows those employees who accept the offer by February 6, 2025 to retain all pay and benefits and exempts them from all applicable in-person work requirements until September 30, 2025, or earlier if they choose to accelerate the resignation date for any reason (Deferred Resignation Program); and
WHEREAS, [AGENCY] has received Employee’s voluntary request to be included in the Deferred Resignation Program; and
WHEREAS, [AGENCY] accepts Employee’s request to be included in the Deferred Resignation Program; and
WHEREAS, the parties wish to express the terms and conditions of the agreement between the parties concerning Employee’s participation in the Deferred Resignation Program.
WHEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Employee is accepted into the Deferred Resignation Program.
Employee agrees to continue working through February 28, 2025, in an effort to ensure a smooth transition of Employee’s duties, responsibilities and work assignments to other staff. Employee is exempt from all in-person work requirements. Employee agrees to turn in all [AGENCY] equipment and property on or before February 28, 2025, as directed by Employee’s supervisor.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ejihld4sywvvqwe67cdkn4jq/bafkreigyjx7ee7ylajigg7e7judfiwf74nnnyz44plwn6ly5yoqolg63na@jpeg)
![By signing this agreement, the parties acknowledge that they have entered the agreement knowingly, voluntarily, and free from improper influence, coercion, or duress. Employee understands that this agreement cannot be rescinded, except in the sole discretion of the [AGENCY HEAD], which shall not be subject to review at the Merit Systems Protection Board or otherwise.
Employee acknowledges that [AGENCY], in conjunction with all other federal departments, agencies and units, will immediately rely on the terms of this agreement in consolidating and reassigning roles and otherwise taking steps to reform the agency workforce. Consequently, Employee understands that this agreement is final and Employee’s decision to resign effective September 30, 2025, unless Employee resigns or retires earlier as set forth above, is final. [AGENCY] shall comply with all terms of this agreement even if Employee’s position is eliminated or reassigned prior to September 30, 2025. Employee shall not be subject to furlough, termination, reduction –in force or layoff as a result of an OPM or federal government reorganization or reduction –in force. Employee agrees to cooperate with steps taken by [AGENCY] (such as reassignment to a different component) to exempt Employee from any reduction in force.
If there is a lapse in appropriations during the term of this agreement that requires Employee to be placed on furlough status, Employee shall be placed on furlough status during the lapse. Once the lapse is over, Employee shall be taken off furlough and shall receive back pay under the Government Employee Fair Treatment Act of 2019.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ejihld4sywvvqwe67cdkn4jq/bafkreib2hqyhxv6qqfgjjq764ye5qhmcwbevyjnyr2e3bldjaycpediyce@jpeg)

I did a deep dive into Kash Patel back when I was at MSNBC, in case you’re interested. He’s a deeply strange and alarming and sycophantic figure (do you all know about the children’s book?)

The reason we know about RFK Jr’s brain worm is that he mentioned it during a divorce deposition, to argue that he was cognitively impaired and therefore had limited earning potential.
