Trump administration officials fired more than 300 staffers Thursday night at the National Nuclear Security Administration — the agency tasked with managing the nation’s nuclear stockpile — as part of broader Energy Department layoffs, according to four people with knowledge of the matter.

    lol … idiots are trying to root the US government and don’t know what they are doing. Hopefully they won’t brick everything and go out and buy an overpriced brand new iphone.

      Bricking it is their goal. They aren’t stupid, they’re malicious, which is orders of magnitude worse.

      They act stupid, cuz their base are fucking morons and find it relatable, but don’t assume any of the damage they’re doing isn’t 100% intentional.

        I mean, c’mon, maybe that was a case a while ago but a) yes they fucking are, the most selfish thing you can do is take care of others because that’ll come back around into a support system no one can take from you, either, and b) all the “smart” ones created all these dumb as rocks ones and now the idiots they created have come to be in charge.

        They absolutely are stupid, and it’s a huge fucking problem.

          Part of the problem with Trump and the other Trumpanzees following in his his footsteps is that we constantly give them the village-idiot pass and fail to hold them accountable.

          When it comes to politics, world leaders, CEOs - it’s the the opposite of Hanlon’s Razor. Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by malice.

          If their actions cause damage, I’m going to assume it was calculated and intentional, especially when it’s a pattern that repeats itself on a daily fucking basis.

          And honestly, you’re probably right. Especially as you go lower and lower down the Nazi chain of command, the spectrum slides from evil to stupid. But if there’s even an inkling of a chance that that any one of those Nazis has the self awareness to realize that they are in fact the badies, but stay the course anyway cuz they’re fucking evil, then that’s the assumption I’m rolling with.

          Treat these traitors like the threat they are, regardless of their motive or capability.
