A person of even below average intelligence would take this as a sign that they should seek employment elsewhere , which may or may not be the part of the point.

Why the Federal Government just doesn’t get the the federal employees a Corporate Amex or similar credit product that has a personal guarantee that any unauthorized federal purchases with it are the liability of the employee and not the government. The government pays the authorized charges while any unauthorized spending is due the employee.

My wife had to travel for work for a major company. She had to pay everything up-front, then complete an expense report with receipts to get reimbursed.

Anyone with half a brain would prefer this method anyway. You get the benefit of the credit card points by using your own card and then getting reimbursed.

Take a step back and think of what DOGE actually is - it’s just an advisory group to the Executive. If he agrees with their suggestions, he has them pushed down to the Departments and Agencies he is Constitutionally in charge of. They have no authority and they aren’t pulling the trigger

Ole BayouBlitz doesn’t understand the 3 branches of government.

Sounds like fake news to me...

POTUS Donald Trump ran on his policies for over a year. He was elected in Nov. & took office in Jan. These whiney Federal employees have known for mths that this was coming. From several accounts, only 6% were working in their offices; 67% had a second, part time job, 34% working full time in another job. None of this started up in only a few mths pre-election. Now it's time to pay the piper & they're panicking? The same employees who played a role in massive waste of multi millions of dollars of our money? Screw'em.

Mine is currently more than $1 so don’t believe everything you read on X

You don't give people holding a government credit card a grace period. They will take it to mean it's time to max that card out. Cutting funds immediately may not seem right to some. But take it from someone who knows these people--it is the right action to take. God bless DOGE and President Trump.

Sounds like it’s “breaking” for you.
Now ya know.
