Again, that’s not my problem. Nor can I fix that. In fact, the more we compromise, bend, and pander, the worse they get. Look at how the Overton window has shifted in just 10 years through pandering to the right. How many more pieces must we read about “economic anxiety” and “the forgotten man votes for Trump cuz x issue and now they’ve been laid off by DOGE?” At some point, those on the right who aren’t MAGA need to expand their view of who deserves to participate in our society and who should lead the country. That won’t be accomplished by further pandering and coddling of immature bored adults who actively vote against their own interests in order to hurt others.

Thank God. This is a win for the Constitution. Now we'll see how much enforcement has to do with all this. Can it be enforced?

The fact that it was a 5-4 decision tells you how much we need reform at the Supreme Court level. The current state of appointing the youngest and most partisan hacks to hopefully survive 50+ years to cement policies that your legislative branch could in no way pass, just isn’t sustainable in a representative democracy. We desperately need to expand the courts, have a mechanism to rotate judges so we don’t automatically know what the decisions are likely to be due to the partisan makeup of the court, term limits, and ethics reform so justice isn’t sold to the highest bidder.
 

The mass culling of workers from federal payrolls will have a "devastating" impact on cybersecurity and national security, a top former National Security Agency official said on Wednesday.

"Eliminating probationary employees will destroy a pipeline of top talent, essential for hunting and eradicating PRC threats," Joyce said at the hearing on the threat posed by the People's Republic of China's cyber operations targeting U.S. critical infrastructure, telecommunications and other sectors.

More than 100,000 federal workers have either taken early retirement or been laid off as part of President Donald Trump and billionaire advisor Elon Musk's efforts to radically pare down the size and role of federal agencies.

It is unclear how many workers have left the NSA, which handles foreign signals intelligence operations.

More than 130 positions have been cut from the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) as of Feb. 14, a CISA spokesperson said. The agency oversees defense of civilian federal networks and coordinates information-sharing between private industry and government.
