  8. "The country’s bitterly tribal politics are spilling into text chains, social media posts and heated conversations as Americans absorb the reality of cost-cutting measures directed by President Donald Trump and carried out by billionaire Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency. Expecting sympathy, some axed workers are finding family and friends who instead are steadfast in their support of what they see as a bloated government’s waste.

    “I’ve been treated as a public enemy by the government and now it’s bleeding into my own family,” says 24-year-old Luke Tobin, who was fired last month from his job as a technician with the U.S. Forest Service in Idaho’s Nez Perce National Forest.

    Tobin’s job loss sent him scurrying to fill prescriptions before he lost his health insurance and filling out dozens of applications to find whatever work he can, even if it’s at a fast-food restaurant. But some relatives reacting to his firing as “what has to happen to make the government great again” has been one of the worst parts of the entire ordeal.

    “They can’t separate their ideology and their politics from supporting their own family and their own loved ones,” says Tobin."

  10. I'm a former worker for one of the major electric power utilities in the Pacific Northwest. If that company lost 20% of its workers all at once, there sure as hell would be an effect on its ability to provide reliable service and to maintan its part of the grid.

    But Trump and Musk don't care about small details like this.
