Good Evening, Team,

BEWILDERING to submit an emergency appeal to the SUPREME COURT instead of just handing over re-org and RIF plans.

LIKE TWO WEEKS after laying off dedicated #IRS employees, #DOGE and other big brains are now mandating overtime.

I stand by my statement.

Musk is worse than Bezos.

You're entitled to your own opinion.

We're going to have to agree to disagree.

Should Bezos donate $250M, form a DOGE para government group, and spend 12 hours a day on X mocking civil servants, then I would agree.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Bezos > Musk

Wrong.

Good Morning, Team,

GOOD NEWS - #DOGE has found and halted MORE WASTE.

With #FDA milk quality testing now discontinued, we can all drink our milk knowing more FRAUD, WASTE and ABUSE has been eliminated. 🤡

With heavy hearts, we encourage you to read these parting thoughts from one of our colleagues. 💔

The loss of thousands like him is hard to fathom. The reality hasn't fully sunk in.

But this much is true: We will continue the fight together in whatever ways we can.

No sane person has an issue with efficiency. We already have IGs and GAO.
#DOGE isn't that.

Good Morning, Team,

As a REMINDER, the #tesla #boycott REMAINS IN PLACE.

People don't donate a quarter BILLION (and counting) dollars to a cause and walk away.

Tesla = #DOGE and #MAGA fuel. They are forever linked.

Stay calm and keep shorting $tsla.

Sorry, we promised not to post much today but we had to make a special callout. We forgot to give a proper shoutout to a few places yesterday. Denver and Dallas Fort Worth, you broke records. You were incredible.

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

Good Morning, Team,

REMINDER: Stay Strong
