I had breakfast with a friend who works at the State Department—been there for more than 10 yrs working at a very important desk. What he described is a shambolic State: things falling thru the cracks, sporadic cooperation with other agencies at best, morale is very low, ppl retiring, etc
Devastating. And true.
I heard similar stuff from a friend who still works there as well. I feel like people underestimate the impact of a toxic work place on productivity. It also feeds into the resentment politics in which the regime is invested. Particularly terrible when the job is public service
The Trump regime is an omnishambles building up to a clusterfuck.
They are dismantling the government
Remember a few years ago there was a thing about NASA not knowing how to return to the Moon because they'd thrown away too much info? Several hundred NASA employees are leaving MSFC early under Trump's retirement threats.
I wonder if there were similar scenes as the Nazis took over.
