Is Something Being Done? Yes. Jay Kuo breaks it down.
DUers, I know you're saying "Who the hell is Jay Kuo" LOL
From Jay Kuo's Substack:
This weekends head-spinning headlines were enough to spike blood pressure nationwide. Mass purges of prosecutors and agents at the FBI. A shutdown of an entire agency at USAID. Even a tech bro putsch at Treasury and the Office of Personnel Management, giving an unelected billionaire access and possible control over our entire federal workforce HR and some $6 trillion paid annually by our federal payment system.
The most common question I saw across social media and in the comments was understandable: Is somebody doing something about this?
The short and important answer is yes. And we need to understand a few things to help bring things into focus.
First, the timing of all of this was intentional. It all went down on a Friday night, when there would be less ability among affected employees to communicate and resist; decreased national press attention; and closed congressional offices, courthouses and law offices. They wanted us to panic for several days and make us feel like we were rudderless and without clear options.
