I think commenter was probably talking about this

You’re not wrong, and this is happening, but it’s important to understand that the NNSA deals with nuclear weapons, not nuclear power plants (that’s the NRC).

Of course, your logic still applies - if I’m a rich asshole who sold out the country to Russia, I might be inclined to sabotage our nuclear weapon production capabilities.

This seems fine, right? It’s not like the NNSA was a veritable money black hole and struggling from multiple systemic issues before this, right? (https://www.admin.sc.gov/sites/admin/files/Documents/FMRE/NAC/LosAlamosStudyGroup.pdf)

Slashing them further definitely won’t make things much worse… Don’t get me wrong, I’m 100% pro global nuclear disarmament, but when we’re dealing with something that can kill with 30 billionths of a gram (Plutonium) maybe this chainsaw approach isn’t such a good idea…

While contractors do indeed run the facilities, the federal NNSA workers provide critical safety and accountability oversight.

I think understanding that not all Americans are Nazis is important.

I’m inclined to believe the vast majority of Americans see through his bullshit. Winning the popular vote through malicious voter suppression and election interference efforts does not equal popular support.
