[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are your thoughts son the anti-ice protests?[/quote]

...thoughts *on the anti-ICE protests? (apologies for typo)[/quote]

I’m not a fan of the protests. The vast majority of the agents “are just doing what they are being ordered to do” and are likely not a fan of it. [/quote]

You don’t get to hide behind “just following orders”.  Sorry. Not sorry. [/quote]

I don’t necessarily agree with their strategy or tactics, but their mission (rounding up illegal aliens) is legal.  At this point, every non-political appointee working in the federal govt “is just following orders.”  Therefore, everyone should resign?

Of course, some jobs are being asked to be ICE and some are being asked to process social security claims, so they are not all the same.

I’m a Fed whose [b]resignation date is 8/1[/b] for moral and ethical reasons though.

And yes, maybe more Nazis should have quit. [/quote]

Sometime I wonder whether we will reach a point when the month in which you jumped ship will be understood to have meant something as an index of your loyalty to the Constitution and your understanding that facts exist independent of what the President says.

I resigned in May. Why wait?[/quote]

My agency was very unstable under an acting and it was unclear what would happen once we got our political.  Once we got our Political and our marching orders, I was out.    See above for why I am taking the time to transition my caseload, like au professional in my situation ethically should. [/quote]
