There is absolutely NO REASON for them to have IDRS access. IDRS houses all of your tax data, America. Every return you've filed. Every cent of income you've earned. Don't have an SSN, but you have an ITIN? They have that data now, including your address and all of the W-7 supporting docs.

The Memphis IRS Service Center is in your district. There are over 5k employees just at MIRSC. That's thousands of YOUR constituents who are at risk of losing their jobs now that the IRS is said to be on the verge of illegally firing over 15k employees. What are you doing about all of this?!

I'm hearing Elon and his band of thieves have descended upon my federal agency as of today. I feel so sick.

I hope my fellow federal employees are staying strong and fighting back. Don't let the bastards grind you down.

The oath I took as a federal employee never expires, and neither does my support for the federal workforce.

Trump pardons roughly 1,500 criminal defendants charged in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack The sweeping pardons would mark the beginning of the end of one of the largest investigations in FBI history.

I want to start a Memphis chapter of the Petting Dogs Club. Who would like to join? I can also start a chapter of the Petting Cats Club. Really, we can just make a Petting Cute Fuzzy Animals Club happen because I want to pet all the animals.

Truth. It's unbelievable that this needs to be said.

I'm a federal employee. My husband is a federal employee. My SSN ends in 3. His ends in 7. If this were allowed to happen, we'd both lose our jobs. I can't put into strong enough words just how angry I am and that cutting people out of my life will be like taking out the trash.

So I can either keep fighting him that we are not going, or I can go and ignore everyone (they ignore me anyway while I tend to my daughter in a separate room) and be pissed and miserable the entire time. I hate going anyway because they seriously do pretty much leave me and my daughter on our own.

We have 3 kids, including a disabled 5-year-old daughter. She's level 3 autistic and ADHD. She's not exactly non-verbal, but she speaks in scripts and can't hold a conversation or answer questions. The choices of his family will have a direct impact on all of us, but especially on her if DoE is gone

My husband says no one will talk politics and that we're going. I told him that he could go by himself, but I'm not going, and neither were my children. Whether they talk politics or not isn't even the issue anymore. These people have made it even more clear just how diametrically opposed we are.

Less than 2 weeks from Thanksgiving now, and I have told my husband repeatedly that I really do not want to go and deal with his family. His siblings' spouses were on FB thanking God for the election results. I already don't care for them, but now I really want absolutely nothing to do with them.

Headline reading 

Trump Judge Blocks Overtime Pay For 4 Million Workers

The overtime rule is one of the most far-reaching economic reforms that President Joe Biden has fought for.

Headline reading Trump Judge Blocks Overtime Pay For 4 Million Workers The overtime rule is one of the most far-reaching economic reforms that President Joe Biden has fought for.

President Biden tried to raise the overtime threshold, which is the point where salaried workers are entitled to earn overtime pay. It would have helped millions. A Trump appointed judge in Texas just blocked it.

Please tell me you see which party is actually fighting for the average worker.

No, we can't agree to disagree. This isn't sports. This isn't us rooting for 2 different teams and the winner of the game has no impact on your life, my life or our kids' lives. You support someone who promises to hurt me and people I love. As Charlie Chaplin said, "I don't shake hands with Nazis."

I want my first post on this platform to be this memory from almost 13 years ago. Oh, what I would give to even be able to just visit the timeline where this came true versus the dystopian nightmare in which we're currently living.
