idk probably, it's federal money that's run through executive agencies
congressional spending on states is different

imo this is subtly one of the biggest things he's changed
press briefings are a shitshow where a bone gets thrown to legacy media for no reason
fill the room with rando people interested in showing up and asking questions, have all the media retards watch in the overflow room
uh, probably
Is the most voted on petition still having Obama build a deathstar?

BREAKING: Trump administration to offer all 2 million federal workers the chance to take a “deferred resignation” with a severance package of eight months of pay and benefits. 5-10% of the workforce is estimated to quit, which could lead to around $100 billion in savings.

this is all he really can do, and it's not going to be widely used, the only people I think who would go for it are going to be smart junior employees who can just get a parity job working somewhere else
pocket the $100k or w/e the average 8-months salary works out to for people with 1-5 years experience
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 as someone in the area, moving offices is nothing new, the timeline on that is longer than his presidency and outside of literally who agencies no one has ever heard of staffed by 20 people, won't actually reduce the DC footprint Firing federal workers also just won't happen, would love if it did, it won't. Everytime federal headcounts are floated to be cut they never are at best you'd freeze hiring and try to incentivize reassignments to new focus areas or try to drive workers out voluntarily, buying out federal employment contracts is actually silly though
I stand by this
here's an actual proposal, offer to count the next (up-to) 10 years of non-federal work towards federal service if you voluntarily separate, and throw in maybe 2 months pay as a bonus
slide the numbers as needed, but that would get you what you want, which is clearing out the cache of bureaucrats who don't really do anything, anyone <10 years from retirement is not going to leave for anything short of that, because they be breaking their federal service continuity and would be forgoing ridiculously lucrative retirement benefits.

twitter.comSpooky, would you say you are against the crime of bribing meat inspectors?
As in, you think that is a bad thing to do, or are you okay with it
bribing them how?
I'd rather bribe the milk taster tbh
To get past meat inspection requirements I assume
yeah sure, bribe away, I'll cosign it
Alright, ty
Okay. Spooly. what is a crime that is absolutely unforgivable
oh this is a pix thing isn't it
This is a discussion on what crime literally everyone would agree is bad, and you are our sniff test to find a shortlist
Since you are the most likely to permit a crime everyone else agrees is bad
we had this argument before
you made a alignment chart
Shit
modeled after that fart chart
I think you're right
it was based/cringe on one axis
but my short list for universally hated crimes, are petty scammers
the Indian call centre workers who harass people to steal gift cards
Thats a good one, but you'd need to restrict everyone to mean not indians if you wanted it to be a crime everyone agrees is bad
oh globally?
yeah there's isn't one then
Yeah, I think we have come to that conclusion
because you'd have to accommodate actual schitzos

I think I have one that is near-universal
Hit me with it
limitations on public noise, specifically high-pitched sirens/whines
it's overly specific
You will NOT stop me from playing my noise generator
Polu said black people like that
They can't hear high pitch sounds
so basically the deaf arguement
