  2. “A coalition of unions filed a lawsuit on Thursday accusing the White House and the Office of Personnel Management of “creating an illegal and unconstitutional system of political patronage” through a Merit Hiring Plan released in May.

    An OPM memo explained that four open-ended essay questions would be added to job applications for federal civil service positions. One question asks: “How would you help advance the President’s Executive Orders and policy priorities in this role? Identify one or two relevant Executive Orders or policy initiatives that are significant to you, and explain how you would help implement them if hired.””

  3. Three federal worker unions took the Trump administration to court over a “loyalty test” added to job applications.

  7. Too bad the precedency does not have a America loyalty test. Trump would never pass.

  9. We should all join ICE together. I always wanted to fuck something up “from the inside.”

  11. do people think it will ever go through? im really hoping he can get fucked one day but idek at this point

  12. Right 😂. Fuck MAGA, Republicans, and especially the Heritage Foundation.

  13. This is grounds for impeachment for anyone else. Bro is openly corrupt it’s actually insane

  14. Never trusted OPM when working in a state judicial position, where I had access to hundreds of thousands of criminal records. I refused to give them anything more than public documents after 2016; they had no legal access to anything more than the public, though we didn’t have to redact everything.

    I did anyway; they were all dumbasses who were independent contractors and didn’t deserve anything more than public documents. Fuck OPM. I’ve hated them for nearly ten years. Worst nepotistic bureaucratic inefficient corrupt department of the entire United States government I have ever encountered, and that was in 2016/2017; long before Elmo’s DOGE bullshit and Project 2025.

    I’m glad I rebelled in that small way during the Orange Moron’s first term.

  15. 2029 is going to require the first question of a federal government job application to be: “Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the Republican Party?”

  17. Good for the Union. America doesn’t need a bunch of Nazis working for the government.

  18. I unfortunately encounter this once in a software engineer job application with the department of the treasury – they wanted to know what my favorite Trump executive orders are, and what I could do to support Trump’s policies and executive orders 🤮

  19. I could never pass any of those bizarre pre-interview screen tests. This would be absolutely no different.

  20. Make America a nice country again! Without these nazis in the whit house I would prefer!

  21. People are suing the administration all the time. Okay. But how do you actually enforce it the outcomes? There is no one to hold the administration accountable 

  23. People sue trump, then get verdict by judges who interpret the law like a toddler cause they have been instilled in place by a toddler.

  24. America is really fucked it’s like watching the imperial stage of Ancient Rome unfolding right before my eyes
