    The American Prospect, which first reported earlier this week that Acting SSA Commissioner Leland Dudek was weighing staff cuts of up to 50%

    Congratulations protest non voters, this is what you voted for.

      100% agree, and they need to never be allowed to forget this.

      And blaming the voters still isn’t the energy you want.

        It is a pretty amusing overlap in the people that will screech about victim blaming but can’t seem to wrap their head around the concept that the people ultimately responsible for a crime are only the people doing it.

          Bullshit. Those who allowed it to happen are also culpable. Fuck you, protest voters. You could have stopped this by voting for Harris and you chose not to.

        So you assume to know what others want? Because I’m right there with them. Non protest/non-voters absolutely helped to put us here. There is nothing at all wrong with pointing this out.

        And as John Lydon would say: Anger is an energy.

        And I believe that anger’s best use now is ensuring that the fucking assholes that did this are called out and learn from it so that if god-forbid we happen to find ourselves here again, they’ll acutely get off their assed and fucking help.

          All you’re doing is ensuring people ignore the Democrats. They hate politics. They don’t trust you or the parties. Yelling at them just confirms it.

            And all you’re doing is expecting people to kiss your collective asses while you all sit around and smugly talk down to everyone while making bullshit proclamations.

        How is this blame? This is what the voters wanted. This is what they are getting.

          He’s blaming the people who didn’t vote. Which is a bullshit theory the conservative Democrats have been pushing to keep from dealing with why they lost.

            I’ll point you back to the article. And to my comment: Congratulations protest non voters, this is what you voted for.

            Literally what protest non voters voted for.

              Sigh. They didn’t vote. That’s quite literally not a vote. No matter how hard you want to blame them for something they didn’t do.

                Sigh. They made a choice that amounted to voting for this. An intentional and deliberate choice. Thus, this is what they voted for. Congratulations!
