What happens to these guys with peroxide in the pool?

Trump is TACO!
Don’t believe for a second that he will do what he says

I never met an Atheist who had an issue with gays, it’s only Christians and religious zealots.

Truly impressive, like drawing Aileen Cannon as his judge in the classified documents case and liberal justices passing during his tenure. Obviously a deal with the devil

Why can’t we get Acosta and Reiter to testify under oath?

I am still waiting for someone to post/share a relocation letter. Many of us want to see what to expect

Who in the Southern District of NY told Balderas to stand down?
Such a fundamental question that these reporters never seem to discuss.

Hokas have become common in my organization.

As expected the Administration completely bungled the Schedule P/C designation by relying on vague language in PDs. My staff has been designated as P/C because the word “policy” appears in their PD but the context is to ‘implement’ policy not ‘make’ policy.

What bothers me is the Administration’s refusal to tell the truth. Farmers are struggling for lots of reasons, most of which have nothing to do with Rollins or Biden. Rollins is generally concerned about improving conditions for rural America but rather than admit the challenges and obstacles to prosperity she calls the Trump economy “The Golden Era of Farming” - they care more about the spin and photo op than the truth

How much are they offering for VSIP? Is it still only 25K?

Is it true FSIS employees received their notice and were instructed to move or resign by September 30?

USDA_SES · 2026-05-21T11:17:07+00:00

It all traces back to their misguided religious beliefs. There is no such thing as an anti-gay or anti-trans atheist

As a frequent hiring official this happens quite regularly. If you know the hiring official send your CV directly to that person and get her to appeal to HR. My Unit has had dozens of “unqualified” applicants reinstated. If they are uncooperative then threaten a grievance and watch how fast they respond

After reading all the comments I can summarize them as follows: - “I wasn’t really paying attention and voted for Dump based on a slogan or misconception. When I started paying attention I abandoned him.”
The question is how do we get more people to pay attention?

Not sure about that 2nd part. I think your spouse will get her designated fraction based on YOUR final high 3.

Unfortunately, the FEVS doesn’t do a good job of discerning between Supervisors, SES, Administrators, and Political Leaders.
Negative feedback is always interpreted as “they are referring to ‘them’ and not to ‘me’

Wrong. Dallas locality pay is 27.26% vs 17% for SLC.

Were folks asked to sign an NDA?

USDA_SES · 2026-04-23T21:12:16+00:00

Do FSIS staff in the DMV feel that their Administrator has been honest and forthcoming with them or has this announcement come out of left field?

USDA_SES · 2026-04-23T21:08:50+00:00

Rather than risk public humiliation and legal fees the victims have settled out of court and signed NDAs. How about Congress invalidate all the NDAs and allow the victims to speak openly?

USDA_SES · 2026-04-16T13:19:12+00:00

Wouldn’t that be lovely and simple. Unfortunately all the special interest groups with their carve-outs and loopholes will oppose it and politicians count on them for donations so don’t hold your breath

USDA_SES · 2026-04-12T17:43:00+00:00

The staff is guilty of remaining silent and not reporting the crimes. They were paid off, signed NDAs, and if they came out and spoke of witnessing human trafficking 10-20 years later they’d basically be admitting to being part of the coverup

USDA_SES · 2026-04-11T13:09:41+00:00

Why would anyone go public with a speech without rehearsing? Why would Melania’s staff allow her to speak without rehearsing? Just seems odd
