Summary

Metadata from recent OPM memos on hiring freezes, firing, and in-person work reveals authors tied to the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, a plan to overhaul federal government staffing with conservative loyalists.

Notable contributors include Noah Peters, linked to controversial legal cases, and James Sherk, who designed the “Schedule F” worker reclassification to ease federal employee firings.

Critics say the memos reflect Trump-aligned efforts to reshape the government.

Project 2025 authors have been integrated into Trump’s administrations, despite his denial of involvement.

    OPM is setting up “email blasts” that go to all federal employees and I don’t think it’ll take long for this admin to treat it like Twitter.

    They want to purge the chain of command of dissenters, so they want direct control/communication with every federal employee skipping entire chains of command.

    Rather than orders being sent thru the chain of command (which is good for soooo many reasons) they want a direct pipeline to tell every federal employee to do something at the same time.

    Well, isn’t that weird. I thought donvict said “he doesn’t know her” when it came to Project 2025. And all the qon chuds were saying that Project 2025 was just some librul conspiraceee?

      Since 2016 I’ve been hearing nonstop “don’t alienate your allies,” “civilized discourse,” “both sides” and on and on. Meanwhile my enemy is rage-quoting Romans 13 and advocating for immediate executions of political opponents.

      Now those sort of hateful bloodthirsty fruitloops are writing memos in the White House to get rid of anyone standing in the way of God-Trump’s rule in the Whitehouse (and on earth amen). And this time they know how to break all the systems in place to protect people from evil and/or amoral folk after already having a kick at them.

    No, they were sent by folks from the Heritage Foundation.

    They were authored by Grok.

          Photoshop (which is what you shared) is the result of human effort and creativity. AI is crap and some people don’t want to see it.

            I generated that image with Ideogram. But if I were to make it in Photoshop these days, I’d select the wing and type “arm giving a thumbs up” into the generative fill box.

        Image search result from ages ago, not generated by me. I cannot prove that it is or isn’t AI generated. I did add the caption.

        EDIT: I ran it through an AI image detection system. Below are the results.

          Thanks. AI detection via program is no good. The buttons make no sense, the eyes have no pupils, the lines on the mouth don’t make sense. Those aren’t mistakes a human artist would make (even a bad one). This is definitely AI
