Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[Moralgy]

Take note how our local cowards don't address the matter of the hitlist. Oi, tehdang! You feckless worm, any opinions?

Why care about a real issue when we can cry about dei clause eating our cookies.

Someone defend this, I wanna see a 10/10 gymnastics routine.

Malicious compliance, look it up.

Is that what we are going to call doing your job that was demanded of you, but it looks bad when put into action. Maybe anti dei people should be more clear.

[DarkTZeratul]

Malicious compliance, look it up.

You know, malicious compliance usually happens because the orders being complied with are bullshit and everyone knows it.

Trump's buyout offer to federal employees frozen by a judge because it's being contested by unions.

In other words, yet another Trump action that just became nothing. Turns out, claiming you have the authority to do anything you want doesn't, you know, work very well when you break the law. Wow, that's all his initiatives stalled or failing.

This entire DEI thing is just a smoke screen and an excuse in order replace the intelligent and capable workers with trump loyalists.
This is straight from the supervillian playbook. Think I saw Cobra Commander do the same thing to defeat the Joes.

Just more pieces of project 2025 that was overwhelmingly rejected by the voters being put into place.

The fact that virtually none of Trump's nominees are qualified pretty much sinks the bullshit line about meritocracy. You have Alcoholic / Domestic abuser / rapists / white nationalist/ Bankrupting fiend Pete Hegseth on the podium talking about hiring the "best people". All you need is eyes and ears to know the entire thing is just another word for minorities and non loyalists.

Trump economics still ruining breakfeast for hard working americans. USDA says prices will likely go up another 20%!



This still a valid talking point? Yes, thank you.

It's also obviously to anyone who has even the slightest idea how government works. To pay workers all the way through september, they need funds. Funds that need to be agreed to in the budget by Congress. You can't plan with that money preemptively.

[Breccia]

Wait, hold on!

IRS workers who took the buyout told to go back to work anyhow.

IRS employees involved in the 2025 tax season will not be allowed to accept a buyout offer from the Trump administration until after the taxpayer filing deadline, according to a letter sent Wednesday to IRS employees.

The letter says that “critical filing season positions in Taxpayer Services, Information Technology and the Taxpayer Advocate Service are exempt” from the administration’s buyout plan until May 15. Taxpayers have until April 15 to file their taxes unless they are granted an extension.

So, Trump tried to kick out IRS employees while taxes were still being filed and submitted. That sounds like intentional sabotage.

"It could have been a simple accident, like not telling the IRS employees they were essential."

The defense is Trump is incompetent? I mean, okay.

"At least they'll still get the full offer, just a little later."

Uh...

It’s unclear if IRS workers who accept the buyout would only receive five months of pay instead or if they would also get a full eight months.

"Who else is essential?"

The buyouts, sent to roughly 2.3 million workers, are for all full-time federal employees with some exemptions, including military personnel, employees of the U.S. Postal Service and positions related to immigration enforcement.

I don't see the FBI on that list. Trump hates law enforcement.

[Edge-]

this sounds a lot like twitter...

lay off/offer buyouts to a ton of workers

have to hire them back because oops you might actually have needed some of those workers

i mean, we know non-government people are because they failed to scrub the metadata from the externally created PDF memos they started assblasting out to federal employees immediately

@Somewhatconcerned this is looking bad, have Trump’s tariffs or anti-DEI actions done anything to curb this price spike?

Because so far all the tariffs done have made Trump take L’s from three different countries and all his DEI stuff has done is cause some planes to crash.

Certainly all of this is building towards lowering egg prices, right? There must be some grander scheme to make things cheaper for Americans?


Right?

[gondrin]

So, in something that is of a first, Donald Trump is going to actively unite the world.....

.....against him. Yep. Outside of Israel, everyone else literally has said they want no part of it, will not agree to take in any Palestinians and that frankly, he is a massive fucking moron. It takes real skill to make someone like Putin seem like the good guy. Even Hitler didn't get the entire world against him. He still had a few allies. Trump literally has one. That is it.

On other news, Musk could easily have his assets frozen and jailed if France decides to take action against him since it is against the law to meddle in their elections. And the last time I checked, France has a tendency to not tolerate rich assholes.

Oh hey, here is something. Trump is literally looking to violate the First Amendment in a major way. He is looking to make a religious office in the White House to target "Anti-Christian Bias". So, I guess Christo-fascism is going to be a major thing now. Remember to punch your fellow fascist and Nazi in the face. It is the only proper thing to do.

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...as-2025-02-06/

So yeah, that was literally just today and yesterday. I will restate this, someone will absolutely try and kill Musk, the DOGE team and possibly Trump. They are pissing off too many people. Far too many.

Also remember, there are going to be CONSTANT protests each week in every state.

The FBI is preparing to disband a team of specialists charged with combatting foreign threats to US elections, a source familiar tells CNN.

The shuttering of the FBI Foreign Influence Task Force and planned reassigning of team members follows a directive from incoming US Attorney General Pam Bondi dissolving the team.

“To free resources to address more pressing priorities, and end risks of further weaponization and abuses of prosecutorial discretion, the Foreign Influence Task Force shall be disbanded,” Bondi wrote in a memo issued Wednesday.

The special task force was established by former FBI Director Christopher Wray in 2017 following a wave of foreign influence operations targeting the US electoral process, including Russia’s efforts to influence the 2016 presidential election that Trump won….

Donald's DOJ is shutting down the team specifically tasked with combatting foreign election interference.

Sounds like a great invitation for any nation opposed to Republicans being in office to meddle in any and all upcoming elections, to me!

Didn't he spend days attacking the bishop who scolded him for being a hatemonger?

Is the phone call coming from inside the house?

His problem with her was as a bishop she can move diagonally, while Trump is a Russian pawn and more limited in his movement.

Trump and his asshole supporters took a list of Ls today. Keep calling reps, keep calling out their BS, just make noise. FVCK the notion they have an oVErwELMinG MaNdatE.

• racist DOGE guy (redundant) canned
• federal judge upholds birthright citizenship
• another judge blocks voluntary resignation
• NY state going to court over treasury business
• patel put on ice for at least a week

DOGE staffer Marko Elez to a deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a “eugenic immigration policy,” and wrote, “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity."
https://www.wsj.com/tech/doge-staffe...ts_pos1&page=1

When the next nazi is revealed to have also tortured small animals while at Neuralink. I'm sure the GOP will rush his candidacy as the next governor of Dakota, the shitty one.

weird how many white supremacists and malicious racists seem to be in republican circles

maybe this is why elon was threatening everyone naming the DOGE kids that "naming them is illegal", because they're all objectively not just unqualified children, but also awful human beings and apparently racist fucks

[Xyonai]

Wow who knew that the kinds of people Musk felt qualified to put into his DOGE scheme were also shitty little cretins. Certainly a surprise for sure (/s)

[PhaelixWW]

ok, jewish space laser lady, gotcha.

Look, if she can blame Democrats for steering a hurricane, she can praise Trump for making it rain, right?
