We should all buy his Jersey to thank him for the team friendly deal.

@JonStewartIL I've always been incredibly skeptical of claims like this, because you'd expect that eventually a true insider that works on these things would eventually say something... then I came across this "fiction" novel called Detachments by R.C. Charles. 🤯 a.co/d/7iufuJL

#UFOTwitter any opinions on the book 'Detachments' yet? It just came out so minimal reviews. Author claims to be a special agent in AFOSI. If that's a lie, it's would still be illegal impersonating a federal agent even though it's a pen name, right? 🤔

Whoa... if @RealMeadowbrook lives up to their pinned thread... this could be interesting. 🤔

Was Trump right to bring in the National Guard to aid police in Los Angeles? 🤔

Which of the following issues creates the biggest political risk for Trump's agenda and the GOP? 🤔

@z28forme I wouldn't be surprised if it was staged

Is Musk fighting with Trump just to regain support from the boycotting Trump haters, or is it a real feud? 🤔

@NotTheSame_Cord Probably so...

@z28forme I'm assuming wheels within wheels.

If a US or NATO security guarantee with Ukraine is a redline for Russia... should we cross that line? 🤔

@z28forme OPM. To see who sends the emails to 2M government employees.

Do you wish you were a "fly on the wall" at a Gov't agency right now? Which one? 🤔

Is the Trump admin baiting lawsuits in order to set court precedent? 🤔

@DefiyantlyFree You're not wrong... but you're not right, either. If a fed employee works for a Trump appointed Cabinet Secretary, and that Secretary tells their department's employees not to respond to the Trump appointed DOGE head, who are the employees supposed to listen to? 🤔

@BillDunlap1957 No argument there.

@z28forme They were king sharks in an ocean of bottom feeders. Their absence is the reason why groupers like Trump and Biden break laws with impunity.

Which Department or Agency in the US Gov't do you believe is the least corrupt? 🤔

@BillDunlap1957 Yeah... they all def suffered as little fish in a big pond, especially secret service. Shame.

@z28forme My father was a deputy marshal while working on his MBA. Yes, he had arrest authority. And I'm glad he wasn't around long enough to see the dog's breakfast the Treasury Service, Secret Service, and the Border Patrol became after Homeland Security.

I guess it depends what you mean by treasury agent. Are you saying a federal law enforcement agent w/ arrest authority? If so, they are definitely not hiring HS drop outs for that job. Nevertheless, I'm sure standards are not as high as they once were for any position. Fair point.

@z28forme My father spent five years earning an MBA from Farleigh Dickensen U so he could become a Treasury Agent. Today, however, they're hiring high school dropouts to do his job because the IRS/Treasury doesn't have the budget to hire competent, educated people.

@BillDunlap1957 No, you make a fair point, but who are they auditing, who are they investigating, who are they allowing tax exempt status, etc? None of that depends on budget. Gov't can be corrupt regardless of its budget.

@z28forme The IRS budget is a public document found on the Congressional Record website.

@BillDunlap1957 Maybe... certainly possible.

@z28forme They don't have the budget to be corrupt. They've become the scapegoat for corruption.

@BillDunlap1957 Of course... they can be corrupt in other ways, no?

@z28forme The IRS. They don't have the budget to be corrupt.
