Judges across the U.S. are blocking Trump’s aggressive executive orders, with some rulings expressing deep frustration.

    Yeah, that’s what I’m saying. Short of real humans locking the doors, just keep showing up.

    Doors locked? Work from home.

    No system access? OK, well you’re not on paid leave, so does someone preventing you from earning an income have legal authority to do that? Sounds like a lovely lawsuit.

    Don’t just roll over and disappear, that’s giving them what they want.

      If I’m drawing a salary from you and you don’t give me proper notice and a pink slip, I’ll be all over you like a fly on a ripe turd. I don’t think anybody who’s lawfully employed by the agencies that have been taken over by Trump’s goons are going to let the matter slide and sulk in their corner. It’s just that a job isn’t worth physically resisting said goons.
