"Vice Adm Shoshana Chatfield has been fired. She was the first woman to lead the US Naval War College in Newport, RI. Her tenure made her a target of conservative advocacy, claiming she was overly concerned with DEI.

Chatfield served as America’s rep to the NATO MIL CMTE, the alliance’s group of top uniformed officials. The body advises NATO’s two most senior military leaders & helps guide LT strategy.

A shameful #firing.

As #Trump accelerates his #authoritarianism, #USPol could lose #democracy status, says global watchdog.

It refers to ongoing events in the U.S. as unprecedented, mentioning Trump #pardoning 1,500 #criminals who supported him; #firing independent agency #watchdogs without process; #purging apolitical #police and #military brass; #ignoring #laws; and his unilaterally deleting federal programs, and even a whole organization, created by U.S. Congress

CBCANALYSIS | U.S. could lose democracy status, says global watchdog | CBC NewsPossibly defying a court order. Urging his Justice Department to prosecute nemeses. Repeatedly calling the media 'illegal.' Declaring a predecessor's pardon null and void. U.S. President Donald Trump has done these things in the past few days.

Coping with Financial Insecurity Caused by Government

A lot of us learned this past month that our lives are not as financially secure as we believed. Today's news and emails are buzzing with fears of individuals facing strongly worded government demands to pay back money that they never received. Small business farmers in our South Jersey region had spring contract payments cancelled, relatives arrested, and employees missing. Other Cumberland County, Salem County, and Camden County NJ businesses had contracts cancelled and wonder if they need to worry about their own business closing ahead. Government employees and employees of agencies serving government have been fired with no immediate job prospects. tonynovak.com/coping-with-fina

An email to all SSA employees on Thurs threatens "involuntary" reassignments and offers a claimed "Voluntary Separation Incentive Payments" program to encourage departures #VERA. The acting commissioner of the #SocialSecurity Administration (SSA) requested in meeting on Tuesday that managers present him with a plan for 50% reduction in staff, mass #firing that could affect tens of thousands of employees across country. #firing #federalemployee #government #maga #congress #RIF #socialsecurity

Then he adds,

"I wanted to state it clearly. Donald Trump and Elon Musk are if not hitting the gas than becoming more publicly aggressive and hostile just as a public backlash of great breadth appears to be forming and members of Congress are becoming skittish. This is a highly combustible collision in the making."

This is the kind of men they are. Rather than learning from mistakes, they bear down on aggression.

In a series of posting at his TPM site, Josh Marshall comments on the harassment memo Musk sent all federal workers yesterday, telling them they must justify their employment by reporting what they accomplished in the last week. Marshall thinks that Musk "has gotten a bit over his skis finally" with this memo, which even pro-Trump supervisors are telling employees to ignore.
