OSC Hampton Dellinger, after being reinstated by a judge following dismissal by Trump, has temporarily saved the jobs of six wrongfully-terminated probationary federal workers. Here's why it matters.
I dreamt a gang of escaped DC Zoo tigers broke into the White House & made quick work of the entire cabinet. Fortunately, the cats ignored Secret Service & left all household staff unpawed. It was glorious.
What? trump didn't know that 'we can't control bird flu's before he made the ridiculous promise to bring down the cost of eggs as well as all 'groceries?'
trump is completely full of shit, all of the time.
They released a five point plan to get more eggs on the shelves; one is less regulation ( that GOP trigger word they love), which to me can lead to other diseases or problems. Another is to import eggs. Will those have tariffs? Will the eggs come from Canada, the country DumDum syas has nothing US wants. Or maybe a shithole country? It'll be another backdoor grift scheme regardless. The other three points were of no consequence IMO.
Bravo, the mass firings of probationary employees is illegal. The lack of “performance “ needs to be documented and communicated to the employee. If DOGE wants to shrink the Federal workforce, theres a process for it, called a RIF. It’s messy and painful, but fair. The current firings are just sadistic.
If you need to reduce staffing you offer free healthcare coverage to anyone over 60 so they can retire. Many have enough to retire, but they need heakthcare coverage.
The younger hires earn less money too, so you save far more.
I can't find anywhere in the constitution that allows for the Office of Special Counsel, except by a gross misinterpretation of a clause in Article II, Section 2. When any agency is referred to as quasi-, such as quasi-judicial or quasi-legislative, it is a sure sign that the agency is not constitutional, because the powers are vested in 3 branches of government, else checks and balances are circumvented. Just another idiotic SCOTUS ruling (1935, I think). When will someone highly learned tell Harvard Law School professors that judicial review is not an implied power? I proved as much, but lawyers are intimidated by PhDs, so I was ignored.
If you really want to stand up to power, I'll offer two paths that you may care to walk down.
1. Captain Brett Crozier was told by the (slimey) Governor of Guam and 'prominent' citizens that the sailors on the USS Roosevelt were not allowed into single hotel rooms to be treated in decent, sanitary, humane conditions. Instead, they were to be placed in cots in close proximity to each other--too close to prevent reinfection--without any humane sanitary conditions. It was like battlefield triage, only there was no war.
1a. Captain Crozier insisted no one needed to die (no war).
1b. Governor of Guam, prominent citizens of Guam, Sec of Nav Modly and Sec of Def Esper considered attrition rates acceptable!
1c. To them, the sailors were not VIPs, although Crozier would have been allowed a private hotel room if he was sick, and the same for his officers.
1d. To any Navy Captain, the sailors are the VIPs, and Crozier exposed this hypocrisy to avert attrition, knowing he would be keelhauled by a weak CNO, Admiral Gilday.
1e. There was no reason that the slight increases in distancing "at all times" was going to make any difference. It allowed the corrupt Trump regime to take down one of the best leaders the Navy had ever seen. He was an automatic promotion to Rear Admiral Lower Half upon completion of his tour on the aircraft carrier. Previously, Crozier was the CO of the USS Blue Ridge, the flagship of the 7th Fleet, and only potential admirals are selected to be COs of the Blue Ridge.
1f. Trump has in place the whipped dog Hegseth, who Trump can control.
2. Article I, Section 8 of the US Constitution requires that Congress determines the value of money.
2a. That prevents any 'independent' agency from doing so, because independence implies that Congress is not determining the value of money.
2b. So how can the Federal Reserve exist without an amendment to the constitution?
2c. Because it was forced in by JD Rockefeller Sr., using his minions in the WH and Congress.
2d. JD got his 'angel funding' for his oil ventures from the Rothschild banking clan.
2e. The Creature from Jekyll Island. Never read the book (I'm a PhD in Macroeconomics), but I did watch the online video a few years ago. He is not an economist, but everything he said is correct.

National Strike February 28, 2025 💙💙💙
Is that a precedent for all of the other wrongfully-terminated probationary federal workers?
🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
Great report. Thank you!
The challenge for Any country is to educate its population in order to minimize the number of idiots it has. We have clearly failed.
Nothing has cheered me up so much since Trump’s election!! Dellinger for President.
Rachel Maddow just interviewed an American Ebola survivor. Elon lied at the Cabinet meeting. The funds for Ebola control have NOT been released.
We no longer have those rapid response teams to disease outbreaks.
Awesome report, by the way—so concisely written and well organized and comprehensive—should have said that first! Your stuff is brilliant, AG.
YES, YES, YES, YES! Well done!
We don’t have eggs because…..wait for it …we can’t control bird flu.
Mmmm .. maybe bleach up bird asses will work.
Yep. Amazing isn’t it

NYT reports FDA is importing eggs from Turkey - the country who bribes Eric Adams, NY’s Mayor & Trumps’s stooge.

Plus you can reduce without being so freaking ruthless.
Wow what a breath of fresh air! Thank you for telling us about this development.
