Text from article:

David Rice, a disabled Army paratrooper who has been on probation since joining the U.S. Department of Energy in September, also learned Thursday night that he had lost his job.

Rice, who has been working as a foreign affairs specialist on health matters relating to radiation exposure, said he’d been led to believe that his job would likely be safe. But on Thursday night, when he logged into his computer for a meeting with Japanese representatives, he saw an email saying he’d been fired.

“It’s just been chaos,” said Rice, 50, who had just bought a house in Melbourne, Florida, after he got the job.

Rice said he agrees with the Trump administration’s goal of making the government more efficient, but objects to the random, scattershot approach being taken.

    I unironically believe Lemmy needs a healthy amount of tankies so that right-wingers know they’re not welcome here

    That is one job they’re good for. Been trying to tell the anti-leftist crusaders the last few years they’re just facilitating right-wing safe space.

    So now we got conservative communities posting breitbart and users feeling safe to critisize the Nuremburg trial. Like I know it is all the rage to question the holocaust on reddit now, but damn they move fast when they see opportunity.
