Summary
Federal workers who voted for Trump in 2024 are facing unexpected job losses as the administration implements massive workforce cuts.
Michael Graugnard, an attorney advisor at USDA, was laid off three months into his role despite managerial assurances. While he supports “government efficiency,” he didn’t anticipate this implementation but doesn’t regret his vote.
Similarly, IRS veteran James Diaz criticizes the administration’s “chainsaw” approach to cuts. However, others like Ryleigh Cooper, who voted for Trump’s IVF promises, now regret their decision after losing her Forest Service job.
The layoffs are part of Trump and Musk’s plan that has terminated thousands of federal workers and convinced 77,000 others to resign.
In my country just a rumor of a potential factory shutdown that cause the loss of 200 jobs will create huge strikes and riots in multiple cities.
In the USA, unjustified firings for thousands and thousands of persons and all you get are news pieces like this, “[the person that just lost his job still] supports government efficiency, […] but doesn’t regret his vote”
Yeah because we’re largely stupid, not passionate about anything other than hate, or busy dicking around on TikTok. I hate it here and hope to move abroad somewhere, someday.
karma.
The way Ryleigh presented her story made it sound like she was expecting the trump administration to impregnate her. Incredibly absurd…
At least there’s still an option for her: all she has to do is message Musk…
Please don’t mock her personal tragedeigh.
“I still support all of the goals of the administration, and I think that I can respectfully disagree with the way those things are carried out,” he said.
That’s why you’re a fucking moron who can’t be reasoned with.
The really gross part is this prick is patting himself on the back for being so high-minded and principled. He might feel even better about his choice now, if sacrifice is the measure of commitment to a cause.
“I may disagree with the leopard that’s eating my face, but there sure needs to be a lotta face eating and I can support that despite what I’m going through”, he said smugly, looking up from the boot he’s licking.
“Personally, I’da gone with Tabasco, but if they prefer to sprinkle Sriracha on my face before digging in, I have to respect their decision.”
Imagine being pissed off at freeloading scumbags, so you vote Trump into office, and it turns out you where the freeloading scumbag all along.
Lotta very full leopards out there these days.
On a bright note, leopards’ CITES conservation status has been upgraded from VU (vulnerable) to LC (Least Concern).
“IVF promises”
Whoever thought he was going to give people free IVF have got to be the most gullable of the bunch…
There is no way, and that should have been obvious.
It’s a cult. There’s no other way to describe it.
… like a Jim Jones ‘light’ ?
You reap what you sow.
I’m sad for all the workers who didn’t vote for Trump and have to deal with this shit, but I’m not sad for the ones who voted for him. They got what they asked for; they were just too dumb to realize they’d be impacted too
Morons being tricked is by scammers. More at 7.
They are hurting (some of) the right people
Oh no! Anyway…
I didn’t know leopards could get jobs in the first place
Still, Graugnard said he does not regret voting for Trump.
it’s absolutely fucking mind boggling to me that these people who can’t stop perpetually whining about drag queens and immigrants can’t even admit they fucked up voting for the people who literally wrecked their life plans
republicans are so fucking stupid
