It’s SecWussy now. He changed it by using a legal loophole that allows for a name change without changing the name officially

Do not volunteer to be concentration camp staff. It will always end poorly.

The defense secretary has made clear that Pentagon managers are to encourage workers, including civilians, to volunteer to assist in the administration's immigration crackdown. Read the full story: [https://www.wired.com/story/pete-hegseth-is-pushing-defense-employees-to-volu...

Reddit is really hard in this climate. I know I should upvote you because you're contributing to the conversation and sharing news, but my instinct is to downvote this idiocy.

I’m DoD. My coworker just got back from a two-month interagency detail to DHS. I won’t tell you which office, to prevent them from getting in trouble. But they said that the entire 60 days, they had almost nothing to do (these details are for support and administrative positio...

So many offices are under a messy reorg or being dismantled that work is just being made up right now to keep people busy. I fear what's being overlooked in all this chaos. I have no idea where they lucked up to be but most offices are over capacity. Crowded and uncomforta...

No, he's talking about going on detail (temporary assignment) to DHS. They should still get paid, but I don't know how pay works when the detail is between departments like that and DHS currently isn't getting paid (except a few groups that are funded or found money to pay peo...

I detest what they are doing in DHS. But... I volunteered to support operations at the border, years ago, for a period of time, even though it had nothing to do with my normal role. I mainly wanted to see the situation firsthand instead of relying on news coverage or second-h...

In my experience, when forced to voluntell people for some detail, supervisors certainly won’t be coughing up the finest members of their team. The opposite, in fact.

Wonder if somehow they are going to tie this to the 5-20% civilian reduction they are attempting to do at the navy right now

Isn’t this grande? Start wars then cut the DOD workforce. Oh…and when the war is over, the VA won’t be there to help you.

They should change the name of the department. It has no interest in the security of our homeland. Zero interest.
