Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Yeah, it's harassment is what it is.
Laws mean nothing to this admin, however they don't yet have total judicial capture.

If you work for the government in a civil or administrative capacity call a labor/employment lawyer now. You'll get to keep your pension AND get a helluva settlement. Plus if you want, you can keep your job.

Bureaucrats are management. Not the front line workers who they are actually targeting and laying off. The douche himself is a bureaucrat. None of this matters to them though.
that's not who trump is calling beurocrats. he means anyone that doesnt support him.
we want them to not want to go to work
Mission accomplished
because they are increasingly viewed as the villains
Misson spectacularly failed. There's never been more sympathy for federal workers. They made Republican members of congress not want to go to town halls because they are increasingly viewed as the villains.
After they voted to cut Medicaid I doubt they will do a townhall again.
The word is terrorism, like terrorists do
These people are sociopaths. There's no other way to describe them.
I like calling them traitors.
Domestic abusers who wish domestic abuse could be their job, not just their hobby.
They call them "bureaucrats" but they're actually ordinary working Americans just trying to do the best job they can in a public service role. Of course, the Trump administration sees such people as its enemies, and those they cannot make unemployed they want to make suffer.
Sounds completely stupid an irresponsible.
So that tracks for the Republican party and every single Republican voter I've ever come in contact with.
No, these asshats are bureaucrats. We are just trying to do our jobs. You will never convince me that a bunch of engineers trying to keep our space program running are just bureaucrats that need to be put in their place.
That goes for the rest of the agency as well. These dickheads are clearly trying to bring down the government so they can do whatever they want out of the ashes. It's plain as day to anybody with two brain cells to rub together.
It is high time we traumatize the republican traitor filth.
Funny, that's exactly how I want this administration to feel about its citizens.
They need to start fearing us, if the people are hungry enough, we might just eat them!
So toxic workplace harassment with the goal of getting people to quit their jobs. Sounds "very cool, very legit" territory...
I’d say we should do that to them, but I would be banned
This should be brought up every time somebody says they're trying to make the government more efficient. That's an obvious lie covering for the fact they're trying to cripple the government's ability to do anything.
We want their funding to be shut down so that the EPA can't do all of the rules against our energy industry because they have no bandwidth financially to do so.
Anyone who demands better proof than that is being unreasonable.
i kinda thrive in this environment. they're so busy chasing DEI that i can continue putting rust on their gears.
