OPM/DHS et al still doesn't even know yet. They're still trying to figure out the dumb passport poo poo, which appears to be blocking renewals, versus blocking current use, of documents they don't like. And most poo poo runs through the states for IDs and such anyways. So right now there isn't even anyone to maliciously comply to, unless you're handling taxes early or whatever. facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 23:17 on Jan 25, 2025 |

So glad I renewed my passport after the election and that it won't expire until 2034.

Mustang posted:Trump and is cult are going to destroy everything they can get their hands on, and in 4 years that's going to be drat near everything. Especially trump, but really every republican president for half a century. It's like a group of friends getting into a car and 3 out of 5 insist on giving the keys to the one that drives like an idiot, until they inevitably drive into a ditch. So they begrudgingly give the keys to the reasonable driver who gets the car going in the previous direction again (changing direction is not brought up, of course), except this new person never wants to stop for fireworks or liquor. The centrist that changed their mind - who apparently has the memory of a goldfish - again changes their mind and insist that the idiot gets the keys back (the other two never wavered, even in the ditch) and is briefly having a good time until ... yup, it's a ditch again. Tea party/MAGA is the idiot driver now being visibly drunk, and still getting the keys twice. It's the broad strokes of Nixon -> Carter -> Reagan/Bush -> Clinton -> Bush -> Obama -> Trump -> Biden -> Trump.

Yeah "democrats really loving suck" gets you part of the way there, but the voters need to pick the obviously drunk drivers too. But I'm mostly posting because Donnie's snitch line is basically becoming unusable. quote:But there is a fair bit of data to provide clues as to what type of material is being sent to the DEIAtruth@opm.gov account. People have suggested emailing the account Scientology emails, porn, the script of The Bee Movie, and warnings that unqualified, mediocre white people are being hired to head up important government agencies.

I'm not really an advocate for snitching, but depending on your agency (don't say where), it sure sounds like a good idea if it could be a them-or-you type of situation. Snitch away! Supposedly, the DOGE fuckos are going to have tendrils into every agency, like four person teams of a team leader, a rando, a HR person doing the firings, and a lawyer. Once that team gets established at wherever you are (and I'm sure they'll be noisy about it), that's the place/time to drop the dime. I'm not hopeful though, even for the people that have a specialty of ensuring the office chairs don't float into the ceiling. I'd bet money that they're going to check the databases for political donations and if they pop for anything Republican, they'll be safe. It's not really about headcount, that's mostly the smokescreen to chudify as much as they can.

In reality, cut the military to the point it would cede all military dominance to China (and probably Russia). whew, that's a lot of force reduction. Real good way to do things when you're amping up rhetoric against a country that is aggressively building up its military.

If you see coffee prices go up suddenly, Donnie did 25% tariffs on Colombia (50% in a week) because he tried sending two military planeloads of migrants back to Colombia and the president told him to get hosed Probably why they're so adamant that ICE needs camps or whatever - other countries aren't going to help him with the fast deportations like they might've helped Biden.
|

Huh was wondering how that would work, as from the start countries like Haiti or Venezuela have large numbers of migrants but wouldn’t be impacted by tariffs & unlikely to accept deportation flights. Wonder if they’ll end up doing a weird deal with a friendly right wing country like Argentina taking all deportees, like the Tories were trying to do with Rwanda.

I can already tell that whatever administration comes after this one is going to have to spend years trying to unpick the bajillion different tariffs that Trump put on every country that he had a mild disagreement with.
