OMG, this is so sweet. Wife found out her federal job was being eliminated. Husband drove her out to the burbs to a puppy adoption event, only to find out that they got the time wrong and missed it. So he posted on the DC sub reddit, and if you need a glimpse of human kindness, take a look:
He says he's witnessing "something big"
Da has followed the #Trump admin's firing of many US #FederalWorkers & its dismantling of #FederalAgencies. As a past visitor to Washington, he knows people who have been fired.
"Having said that," he added, "I don't want to be too critical to the Trump administration just from this personal level. As a scholar, I try to be neutral. I think there is something big happening in the #US. It could be bad. It could be good."

The Federal officers of the TSA are the good guys, working long, hard hours keeping Americans safe. Now, the Trump Administration tossed out their union protections and benefits. Please click the link to send letters to Congress asking them to pass legislation to protect these patriots, many of whom are Veterans.
https://www.politico.com/news/2025/03/28/union-rights-federal-workers-donald-trump-00257010 “President Trump’s latest executive order is a disgraceful and retaliatory attack on the rights of hundreds of thousands of patriotic American civil servants — nearly one-third of whom are veterans — simply because they are members of a union that stands up to his harmful policies,” American Federation of Government Employees President Everett Kelley said in a statement. #resist #workersrights #unions #resistance #federalworkers #DemocracyUnderThreat
@br00t4c It's bad for national security to demoralize the civil service through mass firings and removal of workers rights and protections. #unions #WorkersRights #federalworkers #resist
Whoa, yesterday, #Trump illegally stripped #CollectiveBargaining rights from hundreds of thousands of #FederalWorkers in 18 different departments across multiple #FederalAgencies.
The admin stated that “Certain Federal unions have declared *#war* on President Trump’s agenda.”
Is he going to use #wartime powers against #union members now?

https://www.wusf.org/2025-03-28/trump-signs-order-ending-union-bargaining-rights-for-wide-swaths-of-federal-employees Why grind down and destroy dedicated civil servants who work hard keeping Americans safe, administering critical programs, and basically serving all Americans? #federalworkers #unions #resist #resistance #SaveDemocracy #doge
This is the latest in a string of self-inflicted wounds by the new admin that are squandering America’s strength & threatening our #NationalSecurity. Firing hundreds of #FederalWorkers charged w/protecting our nation’s #nuclear weapons is also #dumb. So is shutting down efforts to fight #pandemics just as a deadly #Ebola outbreak is spreading in Africa. It makes no sense to purge talented generals, diplomats & spies at a time when rivals like China & Russia are trying to expand their…reach.
I've got #impeachment on my mind today
The question I have about #signalgate is,
Is impeachment the process necessary to shut down his cabinet and the VP's emoji responses to classified info on "private" but disappearing threads?
The question I have about #federalworkers being fired, don't they have to go through the impeachment process to be removed from their offices? If a clown walks into your work and says "you're fired!" Are you actually fired? Or is just a part of the clown's bit?

#Musk, as the architect of a group he called the Dept of Govt *Efficiency*, has taken a chain saw to the apparatus of governing, spurring #chaos & dread by pushing out some 100k #FederalWorkers & shutting down various agencies, though the govt has not been consistent in explaining the expanse of his #power.
But in selected spots across the govt, #SpaceX is positioning itself to see billions in new federal contracts or other support….
