I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is.
This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.

Republicans HAVE TO PAY A MASSIVE PRICE FOR ALL THE BULLSHIT THEY HAVE PULLED IN THE PAST 9 YEARS (in particular). ENOUGH!!!
VOTE THEM ALL OUT.

Decency, integrity, and institutional knowledge are walking out the door. 😢

There is no real federal government anymore, and what there is openly breaching the constitution.
States have a duty to protect their citizens from funding the government via the IRS. @govpritzker.illinois.gov @governor.ca.gov @governorferguson.bsky.social

This administration is about the cruelty and killing. Congress is a cult and so are the the Supreme Cult. I once thought about the government getting coup'ed by fascists or communists but I thought the checks and balances were there or continuity of government actions. Thinking bad, ah reckon.

This is all part of Project 2025.
If you want to know how this ends up, look at Hungary...

We are so screwed!

Totally true. Totally disgusting...and frightening.

This is a little vague, why not come right out and say Palentir now has all your data! Everything. Thanks to Elon Musk and Doge.

Normal is dead

And it cost me my fucking job. And my credit score dropped 100 points because I had to refinance my debts in order to pay the bills.

THERE GOES OUR SOCIAL SECURITY OVERSIGHT AND MORE FASCIST MOVES FOR TREACHEROUS TRAITOR TRUMP
-
We need a national strike. Shut down the economy. Block highway transit. Make a peaceful scene by halting everything.
-
Trump's Cabinet was selected for obedience to a single purpose - the destruction of Democratic Institutions.
Leaders who pursue the Truth, value Scientific Reason, or follow the Law are useless to Trump.
-
The astonishing thing is - cabinet level leadership thinks these people can be easily replaced and don’t believe the toxicity they’ve created in these departments dissuades people from even applying for Government jobs.
-
Republican Party = Power above all (except Profit).
The Social Security 'cloud' debacle will cost billions to fix; does anyone believe Donald will allow that money to be spent? After all, it doesn't put anything into HIS pocket!!
(Of course we SHOULD #BillElon. But I bet he gets away clean.)
-
Well they are smart to do so. If we ever get out of this mess there’s going be a a shit ton of yes men motherfuckers going to prison. As long as Merrick Garland isn’t made AG again.
-
It’s disgusting- from gutting consumer protections, environmental protections, health research, foreign aid, stripping power from independent agencies, ending birthright citizenship, rollback of insulin pricing,cuts to education grants and loans,cuts to small business grants- just to name a few!
-
Isn't the hollowing out of the apparatus of government a long-held Heritage/Bannon ambition? "Burn it all down and we will control what rises from the ashes"
-
At first i thought massive walkouts would leave us blind in critical agencies. Now I know that a massive walkout will neuter his ability to implement his insane policies. We are already flying blind.
-
The rational people with enough common sense to figure it out realize how fucked up this is.

Their Eugenics plan is in full throttle mode, to cull the sick, disadvantaged and elderly.

Intentionally: “We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected,” OMB Director Russell Vought had said. “When they wake up in the morning. We want them to not want to go to work because they are increasingly viewed as the villains.”
“We want to put them in trauma,” Vought added.
-
The bulk of Americans can't be bothered to pay attention to a single fucking thing outside of their daily life. This is why I laugh in the face of anyone who thinks we're headed for civil war. We are the laziest, dumbest, most uninformed people on the planet and we appear to like it that way.
-
They own what comes next. No ifs ands or buts about it.
-
This is what Americans voted for. Republicans put it all in writing a year before the election so everyone would know exactly what they were going to do.
-
JFC! Social fucking Security! Having problems with them as it is just because I worked the Railroad! The SSA payment center can’t get their heads out of their asses! Stopping federal taxes coming out and sending that extra money to the RRB is just tooooooo fucking hard!

“an insecure cloud server” 👀
-
Trump is not working for the United States. He's working to destroy every aspect of the government, and Republicans are cheering him on. They're all agents, traitors, or just plain stupid.
-
And Republican members of Congress, who don't care about anything but their jobs, don't care about this, either.
-
Some people realize it. Other people are just barbecuing on Labor Day weekend like nothing is going on.
-
This is outrageous and I thought DOGE was illegal as hell. This is scary shit folks.
-
This is all part of Putin’s ongoing war on America.
As Putin's henchman, Trump is sabotaging the entire U.S. government. Russian-backed agents of chaos are running Social Security, CDC, CIA, NSA, DoD, etc.
Musk, Thiel, etc. are Putin's useful idiots.
-
What is this administration going to do in the next 3 years-we are truly fucked
-
You’d think we would all be in the streets protesting this stuff, but no, we wait. I think most people think it will not keep being awful. That common sense will kick in. Or a hero. But they don’t feel it yet. Because it is going to get worse and worse. Midterm elections will not salvage this.
-
"government" seems like a misnomer since they aren't doing anything to actually govern for the people.
-
That is the most tragically sad letter of resignation I've ever seen.That a US government can do this to those who've served them & their country with honour,is an abhorrent crime.One for which America will suffer for decades to come.Trump & his cronies are doing irreparable harm,to you America!
-
It’s underscored by the lack people (even unqualified ones) that are willing to step into any of these positions. That’s why people like Marco Rubio are balancing many plates.
-
He can not verify that our data is being used legally or as federal regulations require. He said he is not going to prison for this 💩.
-
Within a month when Trump keeps proclaiming that we are the “hottest” country in the world it will be because all of our stolen “hot” personal information.
-
People resigning gives the present admin the chance to easily put in all of their people. CRAZY!
-
I understand why they're resigning, but a part of me wishes that they weren't. We need sane people to remain in the bureaucracy.
-
Ok, so what can be done about it besides agreeing, 'liking' and scrolling for more outrage? What effective action steps?
-
Are less safe.
-
As long as they fuck with the libs, they can fuck with me all they want. That way we’re all fucked. Yippee!
-
What will it take for Americans to be angry enough to storm the Capital + remove these monsters
They're stealing EVERYTHING from us + you do nothing
They stole our SS numbers + vital info + are distributing them publicly!
And we sit here + pay ILLEGAL TARIFFS/TAXES by the billions + do nothing!
-
There’s one a**hole who absolutely should resign, if he had the faintest idea what honor is…oh, wait…
-
which sadly, might help them if we do not resist
-
F’ing terrifying. Someone turn my nightmare around
-
Oh yay! I lost ya when I x’d X and moved here to BS & some sanity. Good to see ya Angry.
-
The thing that worries me about all these people resigning is they will just put someone else in that won’t fight back and they’ll be difficult to remove next administration
-
📌
-
Given enough time, Trump and his minions will completely trash the entire Social Security system. Trump will bring us back to 1930. Spoiler Alert: America was not that great in 1930, you couldn't even get a drink.
-
I hate that these fucking spineless cowards are resigning instead of actively fighting back. This shit's only gonna get worse unless people start actually retaliating to the bullshit that our government keeps doing
-
HIPPA doesn't apply to DOGE?????
-
-
Is this validated? I’m triangulating and see no other sources.
-
So many of us shake our heads and say we would never have imagined the crazy things happening every day, but HERE WE ARE!
-
A better tactic than quitting would be to stay and keep the ship from sinking.
-
Of course it is! Why do we not fight back?? Why do we not protect others more? Do we stand up together??
-
I’m not prone to conspiracy theories but i said back in April that this admin only makes/guts the security services like they are if they want to enable a multi city terrorist attack just before midterms
I really hope I’m wrong
-
That second sentence is devastating. It is a sad commentary on this administration, and a horrible harbinger of what's to come in the next 3 1/2 years.
-
There will be nothing but riff-raff in the government soon, and then it will be completely dysfunctional to the point that not even the stupid can't keep it together. Then they can't protect him, and it's over.
-
We are under attack from the inside. There are no other words for it. We are under attack. A hostile take over from a possible Russian asset (most likely) and it's fascist and racist henchmen. A coup is happening or trying to happen right before our eyes.
-
They need to stop and stay in place! I know it's tough, but we have to hold strong and not allow these sycophants into core positions.
-
Fuck them They should
-
Don't we need these people with principles to stay put? When they resign aren't they just handing more unobstructed power and control over to the fascists?
-
-
Is this being covered by the Vichy Media? If what he asserting is true, it is possible that we may need to completely abandon the SSN system and start over. Further, all of our personal information could be out on the dark web, essentially making most citizens susceptible to identity theft.
-
So frightening and yet, it has been done!! They (bad actors) have all of our data 📊-
-
It's time for the people we pay to do their job ,get off their asses, and fight back like Newsome and Pritzker. Get the fuck out there. Quit being scared little boys and girls and fight like mother fuckers for the United States. We can't wait any longer. Now!!!!!
-
Yep
-
I spent an hour talking with the top aide of one of my senators today.
-
Russ Vought is partying on this news
-
This is really bad.
-
My problem with the resignations is that those are the people that should be protecting us. The collective us. The country, our laws, our constitution, our people, our data, our programs, our wealth, our health, we need them on post protecting.
-
Oh I know but what can I do? No one wants to work for this fucking stupid administration. But here we are, we need more solid plans.
-
👆🏼
-
Gotta wonder if the TATE brothers and EPSTEIN knew each other. Trump helped the Tate brothers out of their sex trafficking at one point, gotta wonder if they are all connected.
-
Worm brain is destroying our healthcare
-
The damage done is decades worth of work ruined in under a year 🤦🏻♀️
-
And yet, here we are. Under normal circumstances, Congress would call an emergency session and start impeaching the fuckhead from office for treason. What is happening is outrageous, and while we are angry and screaming about it everywhere, it just seems like business as usual in Washington
-
You're right. I had a weird thought last night. Wouldn't it be interesting if the GOP is giving tRump everything he wants to destroy his hold over their party. Just getting rid of someone makes them a martyr. But letting them destroy themselves, turns their supporters against them. I can only hope.
-
Wait until Monday when they tell us that there is no economic data for the month of August.
-
I'm so sick of having to spend years shoveling elephant shit after each republican administration, and this one will take decades to clean up if we don't get buried under it first.
-
And the winner is.......
-
Do not understand the apathy of some … Kamala warned / told all , liberals warned …
the orange dicktator told us exactly his plan -
Absolutely. But also because the work situation is intolerable, . People just can't stand working there.
-
I can't blame them for resigning but the longer some normies stay in, the more intel we can get for the trials we will be holding in a few years.
The resignations may be a disaster but they look like success in the Project 2025 playbook.
-
Storm the White House
-
It all appears to be deliberate and part of a plan to dismantle our democracy.
-
Failure and collapse by the criminal regime Reps enable Trump's actions & abuses
-
Krasnov has been Putin’s greatest tool.
-
I keep thinking something has to give. Like when are we all going to mass protest or general strike or SOMETHING…I don’t know what the answer is but we are going to need to do something here pretty quick.
-
Just as Vlad has planned!
-
No one wants to work for these assholes. A national strike day all over America would be awesome!
-
The Russians are coming.
-
When Angry posts like this it is bad. Really bad. The chaos will be extreme. In all of that, we need to keep the pressure up on Epstein.
-
This is not normal, but clearly, necessary to combat the disease (Trump) that is a cancer on our democracy.
-
-
Earlier in the year someone posted that the AMA began posting stuff on YouTube. Let's hope these resignees begin podcasts, blogs, etc where we can get recommendations from them there.
-
Keep your foot on the outrage, Angry!
-
The Cascading Effect is real. If you've worked in healthcare and have seen a patient begin Cascading, it's unstoppable at a certain point. That's what this feels like in America right now. The clock is ticking, cascading failures of systems are going to grow exponentially. Can it be stopped? How?
-
I hope people do too. That's all that's keeping me sane and moving on a daily basis. It feels like I've been watching a train rolling towards me, my family, my friends, my community, at a distance, getting closer and closer. All our feet are glued to the tracks. And we can't stop the train.
-
Please please stop saying “this isn’t normal” - that phrase is namby Pamby at best and is, at worst, embraced by MAGA ~ they don’t want normal!
Instead please affirmatively call it what it is - in this case, it is a PURGE of civil servants in order to strengthen the thug regime
-
📌
-
They don’t realize it. Because the media doesn’t do its job. Honestly, only those on here know about what’s happening. Local news doesn’t cover it
-
So, SSA will continue to "function" on autopilot for a while until someone finds the kill switch. Then all hell will break loose! I get my money by direct deposit. I haven't seen any problem ...yet.🤞🏼
-
Call your senators and representatives, they are finally coming back to work! This is so disturbing, we are in real trouble.

Elect a kkklown, Die by the kkklown. #RIPamerica

When is enough enough? What is the next active step to stopping the willful destruction of our democracy?
-
Jesus. Five bell alarm.
The Trump Regime, agents and co-conspirators in the GOP are breaking laws, violating the constitution and committing treason.
They are attacking our democratic republic from within.
Why? Personal profit & power.
Every person who rejects tyranny needs to be very loud now.

People from USA, rejoy! Now neonazis have access to your bank account!!!

This is happening all over the government. Doge did the same thing at CMS and other HHS OPDIVS.

You know the SSA hired Big Balls within days after he "retired" from Doge, right? That shriveled little testicle is no doubt head of some the very projects this man is referring to.

Thank you, Charles Borges, for being a faithful public servant and guardian of our most valuable possession - our data.

Yup. They stayed as long as they could to try to hold it together i appreciate them all.

As a data governance professional, what I have seen so far has been shocking. This letter, however, is beyond what I have feared.

Plus he'll just replace appointed positions with unqualified lackies, then the hired positions will take months to fill (if they do) with the hiring process...or they'll just pile the work on those there...which means service issues at all these institutions

When an institution is collapsing, what is the correct response? Does our constitution provide an answer?
-
Our way of living was not perfect, it needed some tweaking. But, We the People ignored our responsibility of voting for the right person for the right reasons.
Ignored voting for City officials and educators, County, State, and the Federal.
WE THE PEOPLE had the power and we still do. Vote.
-
And now IRS woke up and realized that too many people left and the 2026 filing season is in serious trouble. They're asking people to come back. For what? To be laid off/ fired again after the filing season is over?

I sure do. I am so happy Gavin finally got that across to more people. Few understand it is their own NEVER CONFRONTED primate defaults that let assholes like Trump take over again and again.
We need to accept their is evil amongst us, and that we love that too:

Add to that, the Trump replacements won't make things better. They'll make things worse, much, much worse
-
At the rate we're going, deaths from preventable and treatable diseases will be higher than those from covid. This is what republicans, third party voters, and those who sat home on their asses asked for. I fucking hope they're happy with the destruction of our country and the loss of life.
-
In a just world, this would only hurt those MAGA-voting freaks that got us into this. But alas, it is not.

I realize. I don’t know what to do about it, though.

These idiots are on a different planet When everyone knows except for fox addicts! He’s had a lifetime of drug use He says a worm ate part of his brain.

This is how you make people desperate and dangerous. This regime is destroying everything without a thought of consequences. There's going to be a lot of people with nothing to lose rising up against these psychopaths. It's inevitable

I'm very concerned.

The 🍊💩 "destructionist in thief" is intentionally dismantling the government. It's easy with a cowardly Dead GOP-PEDOCONS who's willing to do just that! With clear instructions from project 2025 created by heritage foundation, SCROTUS & far Right-White POS Christian Nation-ism, Thiel, & oligarchs. 🤬
-
At least they’re putting a lot of homeless folks and immigrants in detention centers 🙄🤬

It’s the world, rightwing technocrats and oligarchs have always wanted. The only way to stop them may involve many, many, many questionable acts. Be prepared, be ready.

All because “…ewww, I could never see a woman of color in the White House…plus she worked for genocide Joe…” well, how’s going for you now, huh? 🤬

We have this dear leader

That is the only way out of this. Walk out and shut it down. I know people need a government. The truth is we do not have a government. We have a criminal enterprise.

Classic authoritarian need to control their lies. When they are failing at controlling a pandemic, the regime can’t have science and experts contradicting the lies. This happens in every authoritarian takeover. Same with the economy. Same with education. The dictator controls the narrative. Always.
