A whopping 13,000 federal employees reportedly received an abusive email on Thursday after a new broadcast system was quickly exploited. In an email with the subject header, “Resign,” all 13,000 federal employees of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reportedly received the abusive message, which read, “Aren’t you tired of working for a complete cunt?”
“I’m sorry this happened to us,” responded NOAA Deputy Director of Communications Scott Smullen in a memo to staff. “I will report it.” The incident demonstrated just how easy it is to exploit a new broadcast system set up by the Trump administration this month. “Goes to show you how fast this [new comms system] was cobbled together – no security or screening on this address,” a NOAA employee told journalist Ken Klippenstein, who broke the news.

Klippenstein himself also managed to exploit the system, sending a link to his newsletter to all 13,000 employees of the government agency. “I just sent this email to all 13,000 federal employees of the NOAA lol,” he announced. “The Trump administration’s changes to their communications system made it so literally anyone can blast messages out to the entire agency.”

As expected, someone ALREADY hacked into Muskrat's "all employees" email system.
= new reply since forum marked as read
One dem will speak out here, another one there, & another one there but not in one loud & unified voice. Maybe they're still adapting, getting their sea legs, IDK, but the dems have a history of responding slooooowly & without urgency. 
All they apparently did was "repurpose" the crap email that Muskrat had sent out to Twitter employees after he bought it and then eventually proceeded to lay off most of the staff.
The current BA funds for FTEs are most likely already obligated so this type of thing is idiotic. If they want to do RIFs, that needs to be in the final FY2025 budget/appropriations which they STILL haven't done yet because they preferred to spend time stalking the Biden family.

The email to fired employees:
Hello,
As shared earlier today, Twitter is conducting a workforce reduction to help improve the health of the company.
These decisions are never easy and it is with regret that we write to inform you that your role at Twitter has been impacted.
Today is your last working day at the company, however, you will remain employed by Twitter and will receive compensation and benefits through your separation date of February 2, 2023.
During this time, you will be on a Non-Working Notice period and your access to Twitter systems will be deactivated. While you are not expected to work during the Non-Working Notice period, you are still required to comply with all company policies, including the Employee Playbook and Code of Conduct.
Within a week, you will receive details of your severance offer, financial resources extending beyond your Non-Working Notice period.
At that time you will also receive a Separation Agreement and Release of Claims and other offboarding…

Hong Kong CNN — Elon Musk has laid off more than 6,000 people at Twitter since taking over the company, he told the BBC in a rare interview late Tuesday. Musk was quoted as saying in the interview that the social media platform now has only 1,500 employees, down from under 8,000 who were employed at the time of his acquisition. The reduction equates to roughly 80% of the company’s staff.
It’s “not fun at all” and can sometimes be “painful,” the billionaire CEO told the British broadcaster at Twitter’s head office in San Francisco.
The world’s second richest man said that “drastic action” was needed when he came on board, because the company was facing “a $3 billion negative cash flow situation.” That left Twitter (TWTR) with only “four months to live,” he estimated. “This is not a caring [or] uncaring situation. It’s like, if the whole ship sinks, then nobody’s got a job,” Musk said.
Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion last October.

meanwhile, they'll continue to unleash a fresh set of illegal acts.
are the civilian Schedule Bs and Cs and SESs, many who I call "the GS-1000s". But everyone else is already accounted for in the budget/appropriations and can't be summarily RIF'd without authority.
I think this mess that just happened with the ATC in D.C., where a single person was doing the job of two, underscores why the FTE levels are set the way they are (and is often still not enough).
(sorry to be bugging you today 
)
Enjoy the day.. it's rainy here, so maybe it'll wash away the road salt.
'Musk's fingerprints all over' bewildering email sent to federal workers: report (Raw Story)
He needs to be escorted out of the Eisenhower Office Building immediately ... like, NOW!
I managed to avoid hitting reply all on some embarrasing emails in my career.
Maybe being run by techbros ain't such a good thing. 
Anything that gets "passed" can be "un-passed" (repealed) at any time when a sufficient majority of those voting in Congress desires.
It seems that even things in the Constitution are ignored (or twisted) - including by the SCOTUS.
