Outrageous. Unacceptable. Infuriating.

It is estimated that 6,000 veterans have likely been fired by DOGE.

The federal government should be protecting veterans’ jobs, not stripping them of their livelihoods.

#braindrain arrives in the form of #resignations, not just firings. We will lose decades of expertise because #ComradeKrasnov and #Musk know nothing about running the #government and prefer it that way. #america is in major trouble.

Please. No more speeches in the Senate about “freedom” until one Republican has the guts to stand up to Trump’s lies about Ukraine & Putin. Ukraine did not start this horrific war. Russia did. Zelensky isn't a dictator. Putin is. The US must not enter into an alliance with Putin.

Even though Trump has exempted DOGE from the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by placing it under the Presidential Records Act, its records are shielded from public disclosure until at least 2034.

Musk and Trump have their mercenary para-military to keep our legislators out of their criminal activities.
#ThisIsACoup Is anyone going to fight? Our leaders in Congress, the military & Judiciary MUST FIGHT BACK. The rest of us need to RESIST.

This is very, very bad. Am working on a write-up, but let’s just say that firing military leaders for blatantly political reasons is wildly inappropriate; firing all the too lawyers is ominous; firing them all at the same time is a terrifying five-alarm fire
