Feds Work For You

Save #FEMA! Climate disasters are on the rise and Americans need a fully staffed and funded FEMA. Don't let Kristi Noem kill it like she killed her dog.

Russell Vought tells Trump we need MORE COWBELL -- with cowbell meaning everything on the Project 2025 agenda! When Vought tells Trump to do something, he delivers. Who is really running the government?

Made with apologies to Saturday Night Live.

#dontfearthereaper

If they try to pull this, we will gather at OMB. Stay tuned.

If Vought tries to RIF federal workers, using the shutdown as an excuse, be ready to rally at OMB, his Fortress of Evil. We’ll announce it here. @fedsagainstdoge.bsky.social @fedworkersunited.bsky.social @safa-science.bsky.social @standupforscience.bsky.social

Federal workers are speaking out on how the Trump regime is harming Americans:

"We stand here today at a moment of the greatest assault of our lifetimes on our freedoms. The US Constitution is being shredded... We are here to call on Congress to stand up and stop it."

This US government shutdown is different: what it means for science President Trump’s budget office lays out guidelines for mass lay-offs across the federal government.

“American science, the gold-standard and world-leading science and innovation enterprise, is being destroyed….Congress has a rare moment of leverage to check Trump’s executive overreach and it must stand up and do so.”

The Trump administration is refusing to release our funds for apprenticeships and other job training programs serving women because DEI or something. This grant program was targeted by the women-haters in DOGE.

Thank you @juliesulabor.bsky.social & @rbreich.bsky.social for putting the pressure on.

As Texans dealt with deadly flooding, acting FEMA chief David Richardson didn't immediately end his vacation and return to his D.C. office.

He stayed in his truck.

Richardson claimed during his July 23 testimony that he was on the phone with officials the whole time. 🧵⬇️

Social Security's former acting chief offered insight into DOGE's takeover: "A bunch of people who didn’t know what they were doing, with ideas of how government should run — thinking it should work like a McDonald’s or a bank — screaming all the time.” Read more: www.propublica.org/article/insi...

How Trump Broke Corporate America’s Most Valuable Consultant Businesses are begging the White House and RFK Jr. to rethink their massive cuts to Niosh, a workplace research agency that saves the US billions of dollars a year.

Federal workers like FUNner Micah Neimeier-Walsh protect workers every day at NIOSH. The agency's research & trainings are the most cost-effective way to test products + prevent harm. But that all changed when DOGE "blew it up." Read how in @bloomberg.com: www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...
