    This article reads like it is barely edited AI slop or a twelve year old has written it.

      You need three more bullets.

      “I dealt with you asking for validation of the newest employees, that I had to beg to work K here in the first place”

      “I managed through the fallout of your fork in the road”

      “I began assessing the damage of you firing my team without understanding what they do”

      What else?

      find in inbox where "resign" in message_text select sender > list_of_resigning_employees.txt
      

      (Pseudocode because I don’t know what email software the government uses, let alone the proper search syntax for it, but you get the point.)

    We’ve been in this world of upside where a lone wolf is on a wilding spree through the federal government, clear not operating at anyone’s direction but his own. And yet the President is at least okaying it all after the fact. And thus our system can’t really makes sense of what’s happening. Yes, it’s almost all illegal even or in a sense especially if the President is authorizing it. And

    I feel like I’m having a stroke.

      lol they’re letting shitty LLMs write their articles and not editing the output because they fired their editors and replaced them with LLMs too

      Down voting any articles that are written by AI or by someone who can’t even use basic grammar tool. I mean seriously the basic one that comes with Word would have fixed those errors.

        Welcome to the group. 90% of my downvotes are after I shake my head and wonder how someone graduated the 4th grade. Halfassedry is not valuable.

      I was thinking the same thing. Perhaps an “English isn’t my first language” scenario?

          The majority of news orgs have had to merge editor jobs and no longer have dedicated copy editors.

          People who write for a living are no better, possibly worse, than the average person at the rules of writing.

          hammered out very quickly without much proofreading.

          You already said the writer was American. This is just putting a hat on a hat.

    How does one send their top secret workload to an unencrypted email to someone without a need to know?

      Over Clinton’s email server. Or something.

      I dunno, I can’t fucking follow this shit or their thought process anymore.

    This guy is 100% feeding a million emails through Grok and not anyone actually justifying their jobs when they reply. And it will say “1/2 are redundant” without understanding anything and next week’s headline will read “1/2 federal employees go bye bye” and 1 week after that “uh oh please come back we need people to run the nukes and collect taxes”

    It’s interesting that Musk is sending this, probably personally and likely without getting specific approval from Trump before sending it, and the agencies are responding to ignore it in what is clearly a direct response to Musk.

    Musk acts. Many cabinet departments act in response. Meanwhile, Trump is a passive non-participant in his own administration.

    (To say nothing of Congress thus far.)

        None of these plans are Trump’s. Everything he’s signed is provided to him by other russians/fascists/oligarchs. He’s just the cult leader who goes golfing every other day.

      Trump’s beyond being able to be involved in day to day activities of governing, oportunists just do thing around him. Remember last time he was firing off dozens of incoherent tweets at all hours of the day and night? Unless I’m missing something that’s not happening in the same way this time, on musk’s or his sites.

    I would really like to see all the federal employees not replying in unison and shoving that email up Elon’s ass

    To everyone saying this is AI, I can assure you it’s not. It’s an editorial blog from a well known journalist. He does write in a more relaxed conversational style but I am sure, after following his site for over 20 years now, he’s not using AI.

    It was written less than an hour after his previous post so I’m sure there was a lot he was tracking before throwing this out there.

    As to the story itself, I have seen where a lot of organizations have pushed guidance not to respond until leadership tells everyone what to do. At least in the DoD. I don’t know how everyone is supposed to respond by Monday night anyway, some people have schedules where they don’t work on Monday.

      I don’t think they were pointing out a relaxed style, but a bunch of bad and in some cases nonsensical writing. But I also believe you that the blog is run by a real person.
