Some employees at the Department of Education changed their responses back to the more neutral language, only to have it changed yet again to the partisan response, multiple sources tell WIRED.
Should’ve blamed Martians. Worked for me that one time.
The day this pedo king strokes out will become a national holiday
Pedo king is fitting.
Trump the King of the pedophilia, protector of corruption, leader of the racist white army.
I will be so happy, i don’t even know what i will do.
I’m addition to everyone else here’s much more pressing political concerns, this is terrible for computer security. It encourages users to install third-party programs onto government machines.
Mossad should release autoreply_writer.exe
this is terrible for computer security. It encourages users to install third-party programs onto government machines
I’d be more concerned about the programs the government is installing onto the machines
What is that thumbnail? Looks like some independence day shit.
You’re only wishing the aliens would come take over.
Anal probing would be a welcome change of pace.
for some
You’re a big guy
why did you think I was questioning welcome rather then change?
Why is my soup so cold? Blame the democrats!
This is what happens when the people exposed to the highest levels of lead are give access to all the hate they can eat and free-reign to use that lowered cognitive function in positions of power.
Dare I say Trump is the next Hitler
You cannot fucking tell me that he does shit like this and nobody gives a damn. This has to be illegal
Does anyone have the article or at least what the wording was changed to ? Blocked by paywall for me
Hatch act, it is in fact illegal.
He basically shredded the Hatch act his first term, there were no consequences, of course he’s just gonna flat out ignore it this time.
Agreed.
Forcing those military generals to sit through a campaign speech showed that the Hatch Act is basically dead.
Agreed.
I think we’re way past what’s legal or not in this shithole. His whole point from the beginning was that he could shoot someone and nothing would happen and americans were like: wow. I like guns too.
it may well be illegal, but when has that stopped the 34 time felon rapist in chief?
34 times convicted felon, who knows how many more he’s committed without being convicted.
i mean, technically you’re not a felon until you’re convicted of a felony.
Trump was convicted of those 34 felonies, he just wasn’t punished for them.
He’s too dumb, also near death, but mostly, he’s just too dumb. All of them are. Our saving grace is that the evil isn’t smart enough to succeed at evil.
I wouldn’t call him dumb. If he was literally stupid he wouldn’t have made it this far. He knows exactly what he does and doesn’t care. Hes evil as hell, but not dumb.
The man himself is absolutely dense. Just listen to one of his speeches or interviews for five minutes. But the really smart (and dangerous) people are the ones whispering into his ear.
This is my impression. Kinda like Dick Cheney whispering into George W. Bush’s ear, just… even more openly evil. And that’s saying something.
Someone was tasked with this. Find them and linch them. They made a political choice, hang them on it.
Keep records. The really dumb thing is this will be public record. This will come up post Trump. There is an IT worker who should have got a really good payout cause they are never going to be employed again.
Dare I say it was BigBalls?
So fucking dystopian. People need to go to prison for this.
Total weaponization of EVERYTHING against the left, even using right wing shooters against the left.
Not that laws matter, but it’s a pretty clear violation of the Hatch Act.
Call me when any future Democratic AG’s do anything to prosecute any of this.
I’ll be holding my breath.

70% if the US is not buying this bs and wants all these idiots to start doing their damn jobs.
30% of the US is giggling with glee over these partisan statements forced on government workers while they fantasize about executions.
70% if the US is not buying this bs and wants all these idiots to start doing their damn jobs.
70% of the US didn’t vote like that though.
Less than 65% of americans voted in 2024
The point is the overwhelming majority of folks are MAGA true believers. A good chunk of that 70% voted for Trump, not because he convinced them hes a good president, but just as a vote against the status quo. They’ll support a better option for that if there is one presented.
Half of half of half is not anywhere close to a majority.
It’s enough to change the result of an election.
Yeah because the status quo was worse than what’s going on now. 🙄
Americans are morons. There’s no reason to believe they’ll support a better option. They already didn’t in 2016 and again in 2024.
Well, '16 other option was an arrogant, self entitled, self serving, rotten cunt. Who made the decision to stay married to a philandering prick just for political cache.
other option was an arrogant, self entitled, self serving, rotten cunt.
But enough about Trump.
And should we talk about his personal life?
To clarify, I do hate Cheeto Chimp.
I meant a better option than Clinton or Harris. The dnc are incompetent.
Is there any grassroots movement for an alternative?
Again, American voters can’t just sit around and demand a better option without putting the work in.
All of the media we have used in the past to do such things, starting with Obama, are being controlled by propagandists. Twitter, Facebook, reddit. Theyre making it harder to not just be surrounded my propaganda.
Yes!
that 30% is looking more and more like a sexual deviant masturbating on a playground at 3am.
The VA did the same thing in a newsletter they send out.
This pissed me off until I remembered that all these positions were replaced by partisan shit-suckers and opted to ignore it instead. The fact that republican mouthpieces can lie to the faces of their supporters and still get believed means they’re hopeless to learn anything else. They live in a reality that is going to crash and burn in a few months, and they can blame none of it on any opposition but their own rejection of reality.
Blatant partisanship instead of helping Americans. woo. 🙄😒
Thank you for contacting me. On September 19, 2025, the House of Representatives passed HR 5371, a clean continuing resolution. Unfortunately, Democrat Senators are blocking passage of HR 5371 in the Senate which has led to a lapse in appropriations. Due to the lapse in appropriations I am currently in furlough status. I will respond to emails once government functions resume.
Y’all fucked. Bail now. There’s way better places to live out your days on earth .
Can they not make a legal claim given that their employer is putting words into their mouth in communications with the public, especially given that it’s highly politically charged wording that would damage their reputation, plus in a normal country saying such things at work like that would get you sacked.
I don’t know the legalities, but if my employer made it seem like I’d said something like that I’d demand an immediate apology, a reprimand for whomever did it, and a public redaction and apology sent to everybody that had received the fraudulent message.
That seems reasonable and fair.
I know in my country, such a thing is illegal af and there’d be very damaging outcry from the public if a gov tried it. But this country and the ones I’ve lived in, the governments seem to understand they’re in service of the public. This is one of the reasons why governments came to exist and why they are still relevent, after all.
First I’m 100% with you, Azure audits who set those messages and they do need to be reported.
Conspiracy time: Every furloughed employee with that message set could be considered in violation of the Hatch Act and that carries with it a possible penalty of removal from federal employment, debarment from federal employment for up to 5 years, and possibly up to a $1,000 civil penalty. I’m really hoping the plan isn’t to start firing these workers from agencies the current administration doesn’t like to begin with.
It seems like most countries are heading in the same direction with their own flavors of fascism. It’s also not that easy to get visas for decent places to live.
The fascists in other countries are taking g notes after seeing how easily Trump and the MAGAts are managing to get away with this bullshit.
The rest of us need to wake the fuck up and push back agaist thw faccists before it gets too late in our countries.
It’s also not that easy to get visas for decent places to live.
The American passport is incredibly strong, we get Visa On Arrival to Japan and Korea, 3 month e-visa for Vietnam, and the application is a pain in the ass, but americans get a 90 day/10 year tourist visa for China if you apply in America (but you have to be near one of the visa centers), and 60 day/10 year if you apply in Vietnam, Seoul, or Tokyo.
I can understand immigration restrictions because they’ve always been in the interest of maintaining a healthy economy that can contribute plenty toward future infrastructure. This is just the play for as long as history is recorded. As long as we’ve had borders, and walls, fences, guards… It’s common for countries to go through periods of restriction to only skilled workers, specific industries, etc. otherwise it’s working internally on itself for a period.
But when you’ve got a booming GDP, restricting visas makes as much sense as having substantial poverty among citizens. Like sovereignty and protection of those within was never on the cards, it’s just straight up fascism, as you said. You get the same idiots saying they’re the most powerful military in the world capable of destroying anything—which isn’t far from true—also saying a brown family is going to destroy the nation… Uh-huh. Sure… One of these things has to be a lie for both cannot be true.
The problem is that for many of the nearly retired folks a job in the government was the promise of a good wage with great benefits and good retirement options. They want it gone because it forced other companies to play catch up in pay and benefits whenever the government could pay better.
It’s also not easy to walk away from a pension program when you’re so invested in it. It’s designed to make people stay long term and put in the work.
I don’t think it was designed as that at all. But like anything long-term with no protection or regulation, it will be exploited. This is as guaranteed as sunrise.
It wasn’t designed that way, but it turned into a system that forced private enterprise to play pay and benefits catch up.
Also, it was protected and had regulations, but when the people in power simply ignore those regulations it doesn’t matter. The problem here is that people have lived in relative comfort for the last 70 years and were throwing it away to remember what a history book could have taught us.
Have they tried all the boxes about it?
Most people haven’t even tried the soap box.
I wish it was as easy as just bailing. I very much want to, but I can’t afford it, and with the coming depression, I especially won’t be able to afford it.
Only gets worse the longer you leave it. Myself and many friends I have met along the way one day just did it, with nothing. Within two years, things are so much better than if they were spent in the same situation. The worse that can happen is you just go back to what you have now. So what you have now is the worse-case scenario.
Edit: Oh, I mean there’s cavets to that, obviously. Like you could get ruined. But that’s why less likely than getting ruined by a drunk driver or something. Point is, what you have control of will always end up how you imagined.
Maybe you should try being more privileged.
Gotta hope I roll better stats next campaign damn
Yeah. Dumbfuck. You totally misallocated your startinf points.
We can guess your dump stat!
Spelling?
Yeah idk, i wasn’t actually going anywhere with that
Yes leave GS vacancies for MAGAts to fill good plan
if you’re planning to leave the country, why not
if you’re planning to stay, do everything in your power to stop them
It’s insane how many people think if all the rational people left the government…
That will somehow fight Trump’s plan to make the government ineffective.
Fucking toddler logic, and it’s widely up voted.
No wonder shit’s so fucked.
They’re not arguing that at all. They’re saying gtfo and go to a country that isn’t batshit insane.
They’ve made no argument it’d make the government better.
Who says I want to live on EARTH???
Seems to me Mars is nice and quiet.
Not only is Mars a frigid desert without enough air, at this point any Mars colony is pretty likely to be Elon Musk’s company town/fiefdom/slave plantation, which is obviously even worse.
Did you see that “just before dawn” pic? Peaceful…
There won’t be if we don’t stop this here. A coward dies a thousand deaths.
