Bully-POTUS

I worked for the Federal government for 23 years. When administrations change, the workers are always given a new mission. Every president has his own agenda. We got used to it.

Trump, the convicted felon who was re-elected, is using his official office and his appointed Heads of Departments and Agencies to retaliate against those who were in the Department of Justice and part of the team that prosecuted him. He released all the insurrectionists, even those who beat police officers, causing harm, death, and PTSD to the officers and their families. Matthew Huttle, one of those pardoned, was stopped by Chicago police on January 27, had an altercation, and ended up shot dead by the police. The Federal complaint against Huttle was that he was at the Capitol on January 6th with his uncle, and investigators managed to get videos uploaded to his own Google account of him there. He said in one of his videos that a group of people were going to the Capitol and that he was "going to see if we can get inside." They identified him on security video inside the building, including inside the Capitol's crypt. Also arrested was Huttle's uncle. He agreed to a plea deal (like Matthew) and was sentenced to 30 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release. The complaint says he was identified on video assaulting officers with a flagpole on the steps of the Capitol. He was also pardoned.

I was happy to see Governor Newsom pointing his finger at Trump as he got off the plane in California with hat-wearing, shaded-eyes Melania. Trump didn't do anything back toward the governor because he is a bully and was confronted by a person with authority. After all, California's economy is the 5th largest in the world. I happened to be in Las Vegas on the day Trump had a rally at the Circa Casino. Why does he have rallies when he is elected? Video of the President of the United States showed him inside the Vegas casino heading to the craps table with a tiny crowd of people shouting his name. Give me the vomit bag now.

He and his wife are still hawking their ridiculous goods, and it is probably amazing to them that people buy them. I imagine they sit in their private quarters laughing while figuring out what to sell next. Donnie: "If they want to buy our stuff, let's give them more. They're buying the Bibles and the shoes. Hey, Melania! Maybe you should do a hair care line and sexy lingerie." Melania smiles broadly from far across the room, saying, "Donald, thet is a varry goood ideah." He tries to get a kiss, but she pushes him away and frowns.

Today, an email was sent to the entire Federal workforce. I have linked it below the story. It says, "The Reformed Federal Workforce" will be around four pillars: Return to office – they want everyone back in the office. The problem is that most of the leased space isn't there now, so they will have to let contracts and find desks, and this will cost money and put more traffic on roads. Performance Culture – they will review and reward excellent performance (not very good examples at the top, so good luck). Streamlined and Flexible Workforce – I hate to tell them, but it was streamlined sufficiently during COVID-19. They want to conduct Reductions in Force (except for people they know or like and need a job). The Fourth one is laughable – Enhanced Standards of Conduct, which mentions loyalty (like a Mob Boss that he aspires to). Trump and his team continually violated ethics standards in 2016 and are again embracing violations, yet they want to enhance the standards of their career employees. Federal employees are required annually to take classes. His son-in-law Jared didn't take them, nor could he correctly complete forms on personal investments that I had to complete. This email is bullying Federal employees, wanting them to run scared and leave the workforce. They offer, "If you resign under this program, you will retain all pay and benefits regardless of your daily workload and will be exempted from all applicable in-person work requirements until September 30, 2025." They have even included a pre-written resignation letter.

He is pulling the government apart thread by thread. People need to stand up. #resist
