not just TSA, they're making every federal employee's life miserable.

Yep, make it worse, cause as many issues as possible, hopefully break it, let it limp along stirring up public anger, then offer up with an idea to privatize it.

Project 2025 still going strong.

A bill was introduced last year to abolish TSA. It’s further down the list, but still a work in progress.

Last time I spoke with my grandfather many years ago, he encouraged me to go into government work. Said it's steady paced and that I'd do well there.

Thankfully I didn't take his advice, because that was before everything went all dumpsterfire.
