Every federal service facing cuts and mass layoffs should do this to raise awareness.
What are they gonna do? Cut your funding and fire your employees?
I wouldn't be surprised baby kingshit wakes up tomorrow has a fit, renames yosemite to america national park and threatens to remove citizenship from anyone who dare use the flag this way.
I'm surprised he didnt already do it for those who kneel during the anthem
The "you must stand for the anthem" EO is likely imminent since The Eagles told trump to go fuck himself and aren't going to go to the white house to celebrate their super bowl win.
They're 2 for 2. Go birds.
Google's already updating all the i18n files as we speak
Its a dangerous tightrope to walk.
There are a LOT of bullshit laws/policies to screw over federal employees. Most people are aware that they can't legally strike but there are a lot of less uniformly applied "behavioral" policies.
And, in a lot of ways, that is likely what musk et al is counting on. Because "Reply to this email so I can wank my broken dick to my power over you by midnight" is VERY questionable and prone to a lot of legal injunctions. But doing something that you can officially be fired for? That makes things easy.
And... it is easy to say "just quit if they are going to fire you". But that means you aren't getting a paycheck. And we as a people have made it increasingly clear that we don't actually have federal employees' backs so...
That'll do it! Finally, someone raising awareness.
I know this is shocking (I don’t mean that sarcastically) but the majority of Americans truly, literally, don’t know the extent of what’s happening. They’ve maybe heard one headline about how Trump is increasing government efficiency and they took it at face value.
Finally people are aware man oh now things will happen right?... Right?
