Federal workers prepare for cuts, forced relocations in Trump’s second term

Federal workers prepare for cuts, forced relocations in Trump’s second term

With Donald Trump now less than three months away from retaking the White House, an office he won in part by pointing to his record as a businessman, thousands of federal workers in the D.C. region and across the country this week once again adjusted to a new status - as his future employees. And he has signaled many of them could soon be on the chopping block.

So according to the constitutional scholars at MAGA University, Kamala  Harris can just refuse to certify the election, do I have that right? - Jeff Tiedrich

The CIA Thinks Putin Is Blackmailing Trump. Not That It Matters.

...I talked to, a couple of months ago, to Dan Coats, the former director of national intelligence under Trump. And I said, what’s going on in this relationship between Trump and Putin? And Dan Coats said, ‘It’s almost it’s so close. It seems like it might be blackmail,’” Woodward replied, adding:

CIA Director Bill Burns said Putin manipulates, he’s professionally trained to do that. Putin’s got a plan just to be just to do this exactly when Trump and it’s what he did when Trump was in office previously and he’s planning again at playing Trump. So there is much to watch, particularly in that relationship.

When Hillary lost she conceded. When Kamala lost she conceded. When Trump lost he tried to overthrow the government. But tell me again how women are too emotional. - OhNoSheTwitnt

Donald Trump was elected by Americans to defend the interests of Americans.

The question we, as Europeans, must ask ourselves is, are we ready to defend the interests of Europeans? - Emmanuel Macron, Président de la République française

President Biden should resign as an act of protest tomorrow so Kamala Harris could be sworn in as the first female president until January. 

That would make Trump 48 and ruin that stupid hat of his. - calltoactivism

John Fetterman Is Mad!
As part of the Democrats’ ongoing blame game in the aftermath of their loss to Donald Trump, Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) took aim at his own constituents...“Pennsylvania is going to count every last vote,” Fetterman said Thursday evening. “That’s not controversial — that’s the law.

“Also, Green dipsh*ts’ votes helping elect the GOP.”

I do not want to be a bad loser, but there is something very weird about the numbers.

The Republicans had approximately the same votes as in 2020.,  The Democrats had 15,000,000 less votes with a higher registration than in 2020.  That, on the surface seems impossible. - amvetsupport

And Just Like That Inflation Is Not A Problem

Americans are feeling increasingly better about the short-term path for inflation.

The latest consumer sentiment survey from the University of Michigan revealed that consumers expect inflation to sit at 2.6% in a year, a decrease from last month's expectation of 2.7%. November's reading is the lowest since December 2020 and within the 2.3% to 3% range seen in the two years before the pandemic.
