The emails will be sent through a search algorithm looking for verboten words. Use the wrong word and you’re fired.

“I canceled a vaccine contract today.”

“You work with vaccines; you are fired.”

Any employee with classified/security clearance status should answer Musks 5 bullet points as follows:

1. [REDACTED, CLASSIFIED] – 2. [REDACTED, CLASSIFIED] – 3. [REDACTED, CLASSIFIED] – 4. [REDACTED, CLASSIFIED] – 5. [REDACTED, CLASSIFIED]”

And then add a frame to the message, “WARNING. Attempt to access classified material detected in this email. OFFICIALS HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED. Reading this email may make you liable for actions including but not limited to espionage against the United States of America and Treason. YOU ARE REQUIRED BY LAW TO RETAIN THIS EMAIL UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE FOLLOWING AN INVESTIGATION.”

I’ve heard rumors from a few folks in DC circles that Trump and/or DOGE are (or were) planning to freeze Dept of Education funding for HBCUs. However, there is disagreement on this from within Trump’s inner circle—and possibly disagreement on doing this between McMahon/Trump and Musk for whatever reason. Supposedly something was going to be announced a few weeks ago and it was shutdown, or may have been delayed so that it would not coincide with Black History Month.

Even if all federal funds for HBCUs are not frozen, expect to see the cancellation of some of the $17 billion in new funding announced under Biden last year, or additional strings attached to said funds.

Edit: Can’t find any sourcing for this, other than this story which refers to funding cut from a USDA program and NOT Education funding. https://balleralert.com/profiles/bl...unding-for-georgia-hbcu-agriculture-students/

You gotta be fucking kidding me! ...What could go wrong with Patel and this roid-raging meat-head in charge? Bonginos forehead looks like a ham roast.

Fired by Fox for being too much of an intense rightwing lunatic. To his basement pod casting. To second in command of the FBI. Can't make this shit up.

Dan Bongino: - "The only thing that matters is power. Power. That is all that matters. a system of checks and balances? Haha! Thats a good one"

He has the most important Trump admin qualifications of all: being an abusive, hair-trigger whack job with ZERO relevant experience. If you're at FOX or Newsmax and you're NOT getting a job at the WH, you have to feel like a real loser.

Todays Republicanism is a mental illness.

I once worked for a company that required a rather high security clearance and one of the senior guy told me that when he was in the military his commander kept giving him shit but since he had a higher level secutiy clearance than his commander he just fixed the issue by marking everything top secret and his commander couldn't look at it ;)

Having said this the above obviously doens't apply to musk since Trump would ok it whether it is sane to let Musk look at top secret stuff (or not). Come to think of it Trump shoudln't be allowed to look at top secret documents either ...

Yes but after a lot of belly aching over the weekend it was reversed.

When Tulsi Gabbard is in charge of the whole thing, the whole system of classifications is all a bit meaningless anyway, no?

I am patiently waiting for Trump to cut Medicaid and hurt the voting base. It will happen, they are neutering every point of resistance in the government. Also, no matter how many guns dems have, military has more... Plus republicans. I think US will reach a turning point when killing or prison time will get to leaders of the democrats... And then, who knows... Rwanda?

I wasn't expecting secession, but now I really think this will follow shortly. Nice job, Putin. No shots fired, but fucked USA.

First I am pretty sure the majority of the military soldiers will not turn on the American people. Second, the military doesn't have more guns. They just have more powerful armorments.

The military has about 4.5 million guns. The US citizens have 350+ million guns. Only about 1/3 of the Republicans, if that, would join Trump's side if there was a any kind of armed conflict involving the citizens. That means there would still be about 60 million guns vs 290 million guns, not counting the split on armorments from the military, as those that refuse to attack American citizens, may very well turn on Trump and his band of idiots and use those armorments on them.

Edit: correction on the division of guns.

Elon Musk and his cronies should be taken out to pasture.

It's one thing to bluntly cutoff foreign aid (which alone is really bad), but somehow they did something worse: manually turning off PEPFAR funding each time it was supposed to be turned back on. https://bsky.app/profile/brandonwolf.bsky.social/post/3lizceodhdk22

I posted the above in the Musk thread, but also worth pointing out that these things are going to help solidify that DOGE is acting completely outside the Constitution (no Senate appointment but taking administrative actions), and this is going to cost us all a lot of money to a) undo the damage, and b) all the reputational damage that has accumulated and will pay dividends for generations.

I'm confused. Members of his own idiot squad are resigning?!

More than 20 Musk staffers resign over Doge’s ‘dismantling of public services’​

Trump administration employees refuse to help billionaire slash size of federal government through mass firings

Granted they were part of Obama’s United State Digital Service but wouldn't they have been one of the first to go?

Fun in the military...

Firing the entire JAG, who decides whether his orders to the military are lawful.
