This is satire right? Dedicating on desert habitats? Seriously?

Doubt it. DOGE fired the people who actually worked hard during the first round at my and kept the deadbeats managers wanted to get rid of.

Assume it will be more of the same going forward.

Trump’s agenda got sabotaged by people actually following the law as opposed to following and enabling Trump’s lawbreaking.

Fixed it for you.

What were they dedicating? Perhaps you might use your dictionary for it's intended purpose as opposed to using it as a door stop.

I once got more than suspended for being critical of my employer. This is nothing new and it certainly isn't specific to the Trump era.

Many people are astonished to learn about the protections that federal employees have. It's actually an incredibly decent place to work - or it was on January 19.

Congress put many legal protections in place for federal employees. They just didn't anticipate protecting federal employees from a MAGA executive and a MAGA Supreme Court.

Being insubordinate is not whistleblowing. I work in a Fed job where I have many many grievances about the policies of my agency. But what my agency is doing is perfectly legal. These are the exact bureaucrats who have caused federal employees to be treated so poorly because they are exactly what this administration says feds are - insider dissidents. Good riddance.

Oh, you poor Stockholm Syndrome fool. Pathetic.

Federal employees work for Congress who work for the people of the USA.

EPA suspends and investigates around 140 employees who signed a letter critical of the agency

“ In a statement given to conservative media outlets, Zeldin said a “small number of employees signed onto a public letter, written as agency employees, using their official work title, that was riddled with misinformation regarding agency business.”

Hey, sounds like the Social Security letter that went out today! So has Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano been suspended?

Perhaps they should consider getting rid of you since you don't know when to use "are" and "is" correctly.

Regulations are pretty clear here. It isn't a freedom of speech issue. They are free to express themselves. They aren't free to use their government credentials to sign the letter.

Democrat elites get so confused, they think someone cares about what they think outside of their official position and title.

This is false. Congress actually has a whole separate group of employees, so do the courts. Most Feds are executive branch employees - Congress provides the funding and the underlying laws.

They do have a lot of losers there. They take sick leave on Mondays and take family leave on Fridays. Take long lunch hours. Come in late and leave early. Then when its time to scold them, they play the race card.

Nope. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is part of the executive branch of the U.S. government. More specifically: It’s an independent agency, which reports to and is overseen by the President. The Administrator of the EPA is appointed by the President and must be confirmed by the Senate.

Which means the president doesn’t have to keep employees that refuse to comply with his directives.
