It’s like we’re all frogs in a pot of water, and they’re telling us not to overreact. They say, "It’s fine—they just added chopped vegetables" while ignoring the fact that they’ve *already turned on the heat*. Acting like we’re not technically stew yet doesn’t make this any less insane.

Very nice. Perhaps a variant with the image being taller to make the sword look like Doug Dimmadome's hat scenario is in order.

If she was any other ethnicity, I'd be inclined to agree. At best this was a marketing equivalent of ragebating.

Once "Wokeness" is filtered out of an AI's logic parameters, it immediately starts spewing Fascist ideals and praising Hitler.

I imagine the current staffing cuts and early retirements are the reason we won't have an All Employee Training Day this year.

Do they not have anyone guarding the doors when cabinet members and the president are meeting? Movies and TV have ruined my perception of how much human security personnel are present at any given time.

Looks like I got my Iranian mineral discovery news mixed up with the Lithium one from last year
batmite2.bsky.social (@batmite2.bsky.social) reply parent
I guess we'll have to wait for more outside confirmation on that. It's not the first time they've claimed to have discovered a significant trove of rare earth metals.
batmite2.bsky.social (@batmite2.bsky.social) reply parent
This may be an exacerbated claim by the official Iranian news agency IRNA, "The actual discovery was 8.5 million tons of hectorite clay containing lithium, not pure lithium reserves" www.iranintl.com/en/202503265...

I think that pisses me off the most. This dude is the exact clientele that the IRS and Security Summit warn people against when tax scams start to rise. And they think he's critical to the IRSs mission and goals?

She testified before Congress saying that Iran is not building Nuclear weapons, and then when Trump called her a liar, she went on TV the next day saying that her words were taken out of context and that Trump was correct. You cant "Gotcha moment" people without shame or morals.
batmite2.bsky.social (@batmite2.bsky.social) reply parent
We've already got video evidence of politicians doing a complete 180. The problem is that they would have to have the ability to feel shame, which they don't. The Daily Show can stitch together a 10-year compilation of a senator bashing Trump. Only for them to cozy up to him when he's in charge.

And raise the tax brackets passed 600k, this isn't the 1940's.

Get rid of the max cap on Social Security withholding and increase the Capital Gains tax. We'd have UBI covered in a week.

Interesting, seems like they're given more leeway than I initially thought. I hope they know where the line is before we cross that point.

Isn't being deployed on US soil to assist in law enforcement an illegal act? I thought that they had the right to refuse unlawful orders.

Roughly 400 million to tear it down to the last screw and build it back up to AF1 specs, then after 4 years of inflation another 400 million to turn it back into a regular plane if Trump leaves office. Close to 800 million for a 13-year-old plane that no one else wanted.

I was thinking that they only have enough funds from firing the probationary employees. And now a federal judge just ordered them to be rehired immediately.

The quickest way is through your IRS online account. If you have one setup, that is.

Still waiting on confirmation from the higher-ups in the Treasury. If the email is just from OPM we can ignore it unless the Agency says otherwise.

They know that a good portion of IRS employees who work remotely can not afford to come into the office every day. This is just another way to forcibly remove federal employees from their jobs.

I marked it as SPAM and will move along with my day. My every working minute is accounted for in 5 different computer systems. I don't have time to play around with DOGE or their cronies.

That's fair. Our next action seems to be joining any class action lawsuits that open up.

If you believe you're gonna get a refund , it's better to file as soon as you're able. If you need more time, you can file a 6 month extension to prolong the deadline to October 15th.
batmite2.bsky.social (@batmite2.bsky.social) reply parent
The system is so old that it takes months of training to even know what you're looking at, let alone input changes. Since DOGE seems to hire 20 year old script kiddies, we might be able to stave them off them using 50 year old technology.
