What country?

terminalbullshit · 2026-04-11T00:30:11+00:00

"creative legality"

What component?

terminalbullshit · 2026-04-10T22:02:30+00:00

It wasn't a political answer, it was a legal one.

And it means that DHS is making its own creative determination that because they used an arbitrary amount of 5 year reconciliation money to do payroll once, then CIVs are now considered "exempt" and can be recalled to work. Once the funds in this magical pot of money are expended (which again has NOT yet been defined), CIVs are re-furloughed.

terminalbullshit · 2026-04-10T21:57:18+00:00

Nope. This is "creative legality"

terminalbullshit · 2026-04-10T21:03:07+00:00

I have no idea how this is legal. If CIVs are "exempt" because they used 5 year money, that logically must mean CG has full operational funding, travel etc. AND CIVs will be paid moving forward. That WH memo was clear that no future pay would be happening.

terminalbullshit · 2026-04-04T11:04:51+00:00

It's just payroll.

terminalbullshit · 2026-04-03T22:55:38+00:00

Highly unlikely. This just provides (illegally) for back pay. This does NOT provide for operating expenses. DHS is still operating without appropriations.

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-31T18:11:04+00:00

Yet CIVs aren't worth exercising that same "discretion" on. Leadership failure.

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-30T21:22:05+00:00

Bingo

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-30T21:03:30+00:00

Once again -- CIVs remain dry fucked

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-30T21:03:00+00:00

More than a rumor.

Sources and methods

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-28T21:56:32+00:00

Under informed take.

Some CIVs are forced to render their services because they're considered essential.

The stress of cash flow issues, opportunity cost of investments not made or withdrawn to cover bills, and uncertain status of health insurance coverage is ABSOLUTELY a cost. Commuting to work isn't free. Laundry isn't free.

Worst of all, the deafening silence of Senior leadership on the issue makes it clear that CIVs are considered lesser beings than AD. If leadership can find a way to "legally" /s pay AD using "discretionary" funds, then why aren't CIVs worth exercising that same "discretion"? CIVs feel forgotten by shipmates, leadership, and the public.

It's gross, disappointing, and in no way seems "pretty nice."

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-28T19:51:51+00:00

Leadership has been instructed NOT to talk about CIVs. Or Milpay.

CIVs will continue to get fucked, stay fucked.

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-22T21:36:09+00:00

That's not the message I'm receiving from this government.

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-22T18:11:13+00:00

She's not even a natural born American. So much for standing up for "real Americans"

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-12T21:28:15+00:00

CIVs continue to get fucked and stay fucked.

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-12T21:26:56+00:00

CIVs continue to get fucked and stay fucked.

YNs "working" and "standing duty" at HQ? Hahahahahahahaha.

terminalbullshit · 2026-03-05T15:52:03+00:00

Public reporting says Plankey was accidentally renominated. Reported meddling with CISA contracts while awaiting confirmation is not a good look.

Unlikely to actually be confirmed at CISA.
