National Weather Service employees were encouraged to take early retirements at an all-hands meeting Thursday. The union believes as many as 1,000 could leave in the coming months - out of a workforce of just over 4,000.

Well, I'm going to try this.. I hope someone who is reading this will try with me too... try to find some hope every day, even when it's hard. Whether it's that supportive card from an unexpected friend, or a song that came on at the right time, or a small piece of positive news... Deep breaths...

Good night my friends.
Each night I say I love you, because none of us hear it as often as we should in our lives.
So I ask you tonight - tell someone you love how much they mean to you, now, while you are able.
I love you.
Be safe, take care, and see you tomorrow.

Got a sweet, supportive card from a long time classmate friend. To some, that may seem like a little gesture. But, to me, it meant a lot.

Kind words are never meaningless and can truly mean the world to somebody who really needs to hear them.

I work for The Weather Company, which has a much used cellphone app for the weather, provides aviation weather services, and much more. We stand on the backs of giants, relying on information from the National Weather Service for what we do. Harming the NWS will harm us and many other businesses.

@markzaidesq.bsky.social what advice do you have for any federal employee right now?

@johnfugelsang.bsky.social please keep us laughing and giving us perspective... there are a lot of scared, sad and anxious people that need pep talks to keep going.

My firm is willing to represent pro bono those fired in this unlawful and vindictive purge. These dedicated civil servants were performing their jobs and upholding the rule of law.
BREAKING on @MSNBC:

The Justice Department is firing more than a dozen officials who worked on Special Counsel Jack Smith's team.

Acting Attorney General James McHenry claims the officials could not be trusted in "faithfully implementing the president's agenda."
