CW: Bitchy Politics
I love how so many ppl who are anti-fash supported tf out of fed workers, only to have those feds lick some fashy toes and fk us all over constantly.
Yay we made a difference?

@milo The TSA are underpaid, often maligned, and the frontline civil servants protecting us from terrorism. TSA officers like my husband and his colleagues ought to get paid. This shouldn’t be a question. Hardworking Americans are watching their lives go down the drain because the GOP refuses common sense funding bills. Meanwhile, the ICE Gestapo get paid and rampage on.

CW: Fed Workers Leopards Ate OUR Face (Politics)
Oh and I'm just going to fking say it, okay?
I wasn't at all okay w the "oh noes support federal workers" stuffs bc I have had to deal w them in a lot of diff ways. But it was obv not worth saying something bc ppl were like "Trump did it so we have to Other Side for Feds!"
Hn. How did THAT work out?
Oh wait. They keep rolling over and betraying marginalized groups, spread the propaganda vom of their gross boss, and basically support getting us killed for a paycheck.
But okay IG at least they're WORKING. Ugh.

The Trump-era Department of Government Efficiency's radical budget cuts have stalled, with Congress passing only $9 billion—far short of the envisioned massive $2 trillion trims. Trump’s focus shifted away, and recent signals suggest no additional large-scale cuts are likely, especially with narrow GOP control and bipartisan resistance. Trump himself criticized the chaotic downsizing, calling for a more measured approach. Rep. Tim Burchett, tasked to push further cuts, admits he’s fighting an uphill battle and questions whether his party fully supports such drastic reductions. This saga reminds us of the scam perpetrated on Trump supporters and the American people. What failure looks like: https://www.cnn.com/2026/02/12/politics/they-put-me-on-there-to-die-conservatives-unleash-on-gops-failures-to-carry-out-doge-cost-cutting #BudgetBattles #GOP #GovernmentEffficiency #FiscalPolicy #Congress #FederalWorkers

#FederalAgencies will be in charge of setting up #JobProtections for their own employees that accuse them of wrongdoing, such as violating the #law or wasting money [who decides what is waste?]. That would be a change from the past, when an #independent office known as the Office of the Special Counsel [#OSC] handled #whistleblower disclosures from most civilian #FederalWorkers.

The overhaul, released by the Office of Personnel Management [#OPM], fulfills a campaign promise for #Trump to strip #JobProtections from #FederalWorkers that his team deems to be "influencing" #government policy. It is the biggest change to the rules governing the #CivilService in more than a century. Trump called the overhaul "#ScheduleF" during his first administration.

A Science analysis reveals how many were fired, retired, or quit across 14 agencies

The “checks” were FAKE. The bonus is a LIE - virtually no TSA officers who worked without pay with perfect attendance - and ate from food banks - are getting the $10k. It’s a LIE that recipients are recommended by local leaders. Local leaders have NO information, and there’s NO criteria used. -
Mei has 20 days from the day the govt reopens to contest her dismissal. She plans to appear alongside other unionized federal workers…at a news conference Friday in Boston to protest #USDA’s decision.
“This is about sounding the alarm to the public that this administration will…trot over the services we provide & the rights that we have as #FederalWorkers & as Americans,” said Chris Dols, co-exec dir of the Federal Unionists Network, who is helping organize Mei’s response. -
The Democrats’ Disastrous Shutdown Strategy: A Shameful Weaponization of Human Suffering
The government shutdown of 2025 has been one of the most shameful episodes in modern American politics, not just because of the dysfunction it exposed, but because of how both parties — especially the Democrats — turned human suffering into a political strategy. For over 40 days, the federal government was paralyzed, workers went without pay, vital services were halted, and millions of Americans were left hanging in uncertainty. All for what? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. When the dust […] -
The Left’s Shameful Hypocrisy in the Government Shutdown: Anti-Worker Politics Disguised as Progressivism
The current government shutdown has exposed something deeply disturbing about the state of so-called progressivism in America. As the federal government teeters on the brink of chaos, there are voices, voices that claim to be on the left, calling for the shutdown to continue. They present it as some kind of moral or political strategy, a way to "punish" the administration or make a political statement. But what they fail—or refuse—to acknowledge is the human cost of this so-called […] -
This is the food distribution line at Nellis Air Force base in LasVegas.
Look at the lines of Military families having to stand in line to receive food. Federal workers and the military aren’t getting paid because of the MAGA shutdown which happened because Republicans are afraid the Epstein files will get released.

Amid Government Shutdown, Republicans Are Showing Us What Autocracy Looks Like
There’s a popular and recurring chant that echoed throughout the recent No Kings protests several weeks ago: “This is what democracy looks like.” But on Capitol Hill over the past four weeks, during a protracted government shutdown, Republicans have been displaying the opposite. The quiet, moribund center of American government looks anything but like a democracy.

Rather than offer steps he might take to bring the crisis to a close, #Trump called attention to the new details of his renovation of a White House #bathroom.
“Highly polished, Statuary marble!” Trump declared on social media as he posted images of his new Lincoln bathroom, even as some households planned on handing out canned soup in lieu of candy.

Just hours after returning from a trip across Asia, #Trump left Washington Friday for a Halloween party & a fund-raiser at his Florida residence. When he weighed in briefly on the #shutdown, it was to cast the potential loss of #benefits that millions of Americans rely on for #groceries as mostly a problem for Democratic voters.

American families are worried about losing #FoodStamp benefits. Hundreds of thousands of #FederalWorkers have no idea when they will next be paid. Several #airports have been experiencing delays because of staffing shortages.
The pain of the government #shutdown is growing more acute as it grinds toward the 5-week mark, with #Congress showing little movement toward a resolution. But #Trump has been attending to other matters.

~Judge extends order barring the Trump administration from firing federal workers during the shutdown~
“About 4,100 layoff notices have gone out since Oct. 10, some sent to work email addresses that furloughed employees are not allowed to check.
“Some personnel were called back to work, without pay, to issue layoff notices to others.” 👀
