CIA being overthrow by a right wing coup is not funny because, unfortunately, it's members will not be tortured before firing.
But it's still something "good".
I'm not an expert on coups or anything, but usually you don't mass purge your internal and external security services before you've fully secured your hand, especially external security services that allegedly have no problem with domestic meddling.

USA is nuking their securities... I fear that if this continues a potential Chernobyl event happens... no security, potentially no regulations, and no quality

Wow, the WSJ sure likes to complain about Trump after supposedly supporting his re-election. Is Rupert schizophrenic or something?

Hmm, Dems probably now rendered useless, re: whatever little leverage they had for budget/debt ceiling talks. The GOP got their impoundment and unitary executive theory into ironclad positions in only a mere two weeks.

And with them now unilaterally controlling the money... checkmate?

The comments I see on various news stories supporting the destruction of our government are disgusting, it's all jealousy and hatred with the right wing. It's a common theme amongst them on numerous things, with this they're saying federal workers have it too easy and it's time for them to experience the "real world". I've seen it with immigration, where legal immigrants saying other people shouldn't be able to get in easier than they did, and we all saw it with student loans where people who paid them off say it isn't fair for other people's loans to be forgiven.

Whatever happened to improving things in society, instead people have decided they'd rather make things worse so they can watch people get hurt that they think have an easier life.

The comments section on any news site is basically a full trench latrine on a 100F day. Always has been.

It's like Canada and the people who were saying they wanted to "take the country back" from Trudeau because they were patriots etc... Soon as the shitgibbon said gimme Canada every last one of them responded with "Give the country away!", literally.

These "people" don't want anything beyond turmoil. Exactly what they are getting.

Yeah it's somewhat of a morbid curiosity of mine to see just how stupid people are.

For some reason they seem to think they'll come out ahead after the turmoil, not very smart but this is what we're dealing with.

Nah their hate for Trudeau is actually what the Nazi lovers here that keep equating anything we say bad about their orange monkey King as TDS. Yes how dare Trudeau want everyone to protect others during covid. Nope he's a dictator. How dare he push this carbon tax on everyone. Lol because he does care to help protect the environment And GASP he wears pride colours.

Another one for the "found out" pile who are now trying to hide their culpability.

Oh I'm going to email them and tell them how much they deserve all of this.

In Florida a majority of the venezuelian community supported Trump. Majority of the Venezuelan community supported Trump. And now he's going to revoke all the TPS status for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans. And now they are pissed and feel betrayed.

I already sent one of those organizations that was for Trump an email saying well, you didn't mind all the evil he said he was going to do to everyone else cuz he thought it wouldn't affect you, and now it is. And you deserve every bit of it cuz you're putting all the rest of us through hell. So enjoy.

Fuck all these people to hell

Trump admin and CIA probably just exposed a good chunk of their China operations.

I remember some people telling me that email security is very very important. Hmmm who could that have been?

How weird that hiring people based on their loyalty and whiteness instead of competency gets you incompetence. I mean, assuming it wasn't intentional...

CIA is a terrorist organizational that promoted torture and murder.
Wishing harm to those who do (a lot) harm is always morally correct.

And again I repeated, in a ideal world that doesn't exist, murrica would be heavenly sanctioned and bombarded for announcing that they'll finish the genocide their ally started.

It's darkly funny that you think the answer to your complaints is this when if anything whatever Musk/Trump would replace the CIA with would be far worse.

I'm also going to go ahead and say it's a bad idea to unilaterally attack another country for saying something you don't like.

Withdrawn from the non-discrimination rule of 1965, just two years after the MLK I have a dream speech. Simply that the government can't discriminate when hiring. These people are disgusting. Imagine any woman or minority of any shape or form voting for this guy. I hope they have the worst years of their lives. They deserve every bit of it.

In other words making discrimination based on race, sex color or national origin, legal.
