"Many of the termination notices seen by or described to Science cite inadequate performance as justification. For example, letters emailed to multiple USDA researchers reference a 2005 report by the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board that stated that until an employee’s probationary period is over, they have “the burden to demonstrate why it is in the public interest for the Government to finalize an appointment to the civil service.” The letters then go on to say: “The Agency finds, based on your performance, that you have not demonstrated that your further employment at the Agency would be in the public interest.”"

"I usually have sympathy for my fellow workers, but not this time. Federal workers, including FBI agents, have long had big salaries, sterling benefits, and gold-plated medical care. And all of it has come at the expense of taxpayers. We were the ones who paid for all of it, and what did we get in return? Political oppression, lies, and a bunch of other bullshit. Until Trump 2.0, we had no way of holding these assholes accountable either.
"These people have long felt untouchable by anyone. People like us who work in the private sector could be laid off and blocked from getting good-paying jobs because we have fair skin and are male and older. But not federal employees! Oh no, they were part of the government and that government would protect them and keep taxing, borrowing, and printing money to keep their cushy paychecks coming!"

Federal layoffs: No sympathy from me!
Trump, Musk and DOGE are cutting through the federal workforce like a scythe through wheat. Don't ask me to shed any tears for the laid-off feds, especially the scumbags at the FBI.

"The American Empire’s propaganda campaigns and corporatist (i.e. fascist)29 economic model has driven worldwide birth rates down past the point of no return, leaving it to rule over an empty world (if it manages to survive). Its total lock (until recently) on the propaganda apparatus of the developed world and its extensive taxation power means that it maintains itself by controlling what you know, how you learn, how you earn, how you spend, what you think, what you value, who you love, and what you believe.
"Its ambition, lack of discipline, and its culture of secrecy, corruption, and deception have locked the voting public out of the political process for nearly eighty years (with the exception of “Culture War” issues and other such distractions that keep the people divided so that the powerful can continue to loot the land to further their imperial ambitions and their own careers).
"It is not authoritarian, but it is totalitarian."

The merchant-priest caste wrote our so called ‘history’ – including religious doctrines.
Interesting that Khazaria was a Genoese colony from 1266-1475. I would guess that it was the Genoese merchants which gave birth to the ‘stories’ of the Khazars.
