In response to the reporters’ filing on Elon Musk’s security clearance details, the network received an email that read, “Good luck with that, they just fired the whole privacy team.” Musk’s security clearance has been a hot topic in the media as his DOGE team has gained access to sensitive data across the federal government.
Maybe you can run an article calling this for what it is now that you’ve been dick punched again. Say it to the people and do your fucken job. Call it a fascist coup
fucken
Bone apple tea!

Where’s that ad for Ollie’s in Octopus Pie
The idea of a free and independent press is propaganda.
The fourth estate has always been complicit.
Theres sources posting what’s happening right now. The idea of a free and independent press is propaganda when the ultra wealthy are allowed to own all the mainstream ones.
Press shouldn’t be purchasable like that.
Clearly the solution is to ignore any and all news. I will be safe under this rock.

What on Earth does that have to do with a free and independent press?
They probably have it confused with the Constitution.
Maybe they were thinking of that Thomas Jefferson quote about the tree of liberty.

If there is literally no free and independent press, how can you possibly know what is misinformation?
And what action would you suggest taking?
And that still doesn’t explain what any of that has to do with the Declaration of Independence.

Yeah, that’s the shit rich people want you repeating. It makes it seem impossible to resist them.
So we are a lawless country now?
The 14th Amendment states that people exactly like Trump have a “disability” that prevents them from holding office, which can be removed by congress. It also states that congress has the power to enforce it. The criteria for this disability is listed in the amendment.
The moment that the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court swore in Donald Trump as President, while Congress refused to enforce the Constitution, all three branches of our Federal government conspired to overthrow the US Constitution.
If we don’t even follow the Constitution, then we are truly a lawless country.
Depends, are you rich?
It’s been going on a very long time, but this level of open corruption and lawlessness is gonna really mess this country up bad.

They just showed up to our office and started erasing stuff off boards, and “making sure people are working”… tha fuck are these clowns even doing here.
Edit: This is happening right now. A current event in development.
Isn’t this something that the fed worker union should respond with strike action or something?
Im a contractor myself, so I dont know. I personally would tell them to piss off. But I don’t make the decisions.
But I don’t make the decisions.
Yes you do. You absolutely make the decision of whether you, personally, comply or fight.
I am in no position to make any decisions at all, I am a lowly engineer, who doesn’t even work on-site at the facility i work at. The most i can do is support my colleagues on-site who are actually being questioned in person.
Being a contractor or low in the chain of command is not an excuse. Remember, even the lowly guards at the camps got held accountable despite “just following orders.”
Being off-site and therefore physically unable to intervene, on the other hand, is an excuse. But you still ought to do what you can to lock them out of systems/refuse commands/save deleted data/etc.
Are you seriously comparing being an engineer to a guard in a nazi camp? Get out of here with that bullshit. I can’t take anything you say seriously.
Baseball bats and crowbars would be an appropriate response.
I mean, isn’t that what they want? Their objective is literally to shut down as much of the government as possible. They don’t want people working.

Where do (or did) you work?
Still work there, it’s space related. I’ll let you fill in the dots. Not gonna dox myself.
How’s the takeover going?
So did you, like, physically throw them out and lock the door?
I wish, I don’t work on-site. I’m probably one of the few fully remote employees bcz im a contractor. We will see how long that lasts.
Mainstream media after giving fascists a pass for going on 12 years:
MSMS have always shilled for the right with more airtime, they only try to look balanced, when they are showing the gop as a victim of the “left”, and always portraying D in such a way that gop are not the aggressors.
The right produces more outrage fodder and instead of dismissing it and getting on with the actual news (what they’re trying to distract us from) they indulge it and talk about it with 4-10 panelists.
It’s hard sometimes to know if it’s malicious or incompetence. I think it started with incompetence because it was more profitable to be lazy and it’s just malicious now … as apparently almost every major news outlet is owned by a billionaire.
It’s always been about the class divide. One of the sides went too far this time so it’ll at least be interesting to watch the fallout.
Also not both sides-ing, Republicans are authentic fascists, but dems are content to sit on their hands and complain they have no power when Republicans have been effectively obstructing government as the minority for ages.
Yeah, I remember when “mainstream media” didn’t vote for who I wanted…
They’re corporations! Run by rich people!!! They might report the news if it makes them money… But we’re truly on our own…
Well at least it wasn’t just a poop emoji…yet.
Got to wonder what some lawyer told them was going have them bent over to suddenly say Musk is just an advisor with no authority and try and erase things like this. I’m guessing we find out soon enough while Donnie tries to scramble to gaslight everyone about what he said before.
