I guess my Q is why Stephen Miller et al would think they needed Trump's approval, as opposed to crafting his (their) agenda exactly the way he likes it

looked into the author a little and she started with the Examiner? I don't understand why there's an entire field of journalism for Republicans to write fan fiction about Democrats

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

kamala harris running for president is currently a non-starter. now, maybe it was my correctly picking wes clark, jon huntsman, rick perry, and pete buttigieg for president, but if she can just get nancy mace as her running mate, that's a guaranteed unity ticket. i haven't had a real job in 35 years

never thought I would know about bsky drama but this is a guy who got a fair deal of attention for whistleblowing and losing his job, who published multiple articles in his own words about the incident, and he's...not anonsee! bizarro stolen valor!!

it is already a comparison insulting beyond measure and belief, but when you weren't even the one who went public and lost your job over the incident in question it crosses over into something else altogether

That's what I mean. Dan lost his job and clearance for trying to point out racism among feds; why Anonsee is trying to claim credit simply by virtue of working with him is beyond bizarre

it wasn't Anonsee, it was entirely Dan, who is pretty well-known locally for being an advocate for this and losing his job in the process. Fae was a contractor with Dan, saw him lose his job, and apparently that counts as "whistleblowing"

it can take 6 months to 2 years to hire someone as a fed, so they bring on contractors for everything from admin assistants to IT to subject matter expertise. and they can't say "we backfill for our broken federal govt" on their website so they all look like this instead

yeah "everyone in DC has a TS/SCI and contracts for the Bu" is just flat-out false. if you are seeking cleared jobs (likely for the $$$) and sitting onsite in those agencies that's a choice you're making!

It's worse than that, actually, it's an elaborate bit to advertise a zine (yes, really) so GQ's publishing is less irresponsible and more deeply strange. this should've been a gag for a groupchat

The article is a bit confusing. Is the task force focused on making the administrative state robust to interference and harder to dismantle, or are they just trying to raise awareness that Trump is planning to do this? Both are important but only those in gov't can achieve the former.

Couldn't disagree more. We have a small-town feel, but it's a lively and thriving city. There are more of us than in Vermont or Wyoming! DC doesn't deserve the indignity of disenfranchisement or federal interference with our laws just because some people think DC doesn't count.
