Government abductions are unconstitutional.

Denying anyone the right to due process in America is unconstitutional.

If you’ve rationalized your silence or support for any of it because it’s happening to those you disagree with, give it a minute…

They’ll get to you soon enough.

They were careless people, Trump and Musk — they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that held them together.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

the “administrative state” in practice is a lot of very hard working, practically anonymous people doing the thankless work of making this country run and a drug-addled dipshit is slandering them in order to steal our money for himself
not trying to pick on this guy. this just reminded me that the federal government does not provide coffee to workers. to drink coffee at a federal office you generally have to pay into a "coffee club" that is managed by a staffer who volunteers to collect money and purchase a monthly coffee supply.

Trumpers: Democratic politicians are using a pizza shop to order children to drink their blood and live forever and hiring women makes planes fall from the sky.

Me: Elon Musk is stealing the data of every American.

Trumpers: Lolololol. You lefties and your insane conspiracy theories…

Folks (and this thing has gone around quickly), it's still unclear *what* has been "deleted"; as many of you have noted DirectFile remains active. Part of the danger of Government-By-Unelected-Nutball is that what's actually *true* is a moving target.

If you RT'd my initial post, RT this as well.
Elon Musk claims to have "deleted" the office in the IRS which has enabled people to file their tax returns electronically, simply, and for free.

St. Elon’s Fire

Man in motion Musk has become part of the Donald’s breakfast club, but sending a brat pack of kids to harass federal workers seems more Joe McCarthy than Andrew McCarthy.

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.

Some fed employees have been advised to download their
Electronic Official Personnel Folder (eOPF) because they're hearing OPM is planning to cut off access tomorrow.

The folder includes all personal identifying info, performance reviews, benefits selections, raises.

Unclear why they'd do this.

A reminder that Ramaswamy’s “thought experiment” for reducing the size of government was arbitrarily firing people based on whether the first digit of their SSN was even or odd. That’s how deeply unserious these demon clowns are.

Day 54 - Wondering why me. I was fit, ate healthy, had a mild infection. Reading up on what SARS CoV-2 does to the body, I'm surprised it hasn't crippled everybody. Part of me thinks maybe it has, to wildly differing degrees. #LC #LongCOVID #MECFS #GreatResignation
