Summary
The Trump administration abruptly fired multiple National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) employees, then struggled to reinstate some due to a lack of updated contact information.
The NNSA, which oversees the U.S. nuclear stockpile, asked remaining employees to relay the message.
The terminations, part of mass federal layoffs orchestrated by Trump and Elon Musk, coincided with a Russian drone strike on Chernobyl, raising security concerns.
These guys are so cartoonishly bad at everything that they can’t even fire people right.
This shit is the closest I’ve ever been to believing in god, because I’m desperately running out of other ways to explain how anyone this absolutely inept at everything could fail up so hard. If it’s not divine intervention then I don’t know what the fuck the world even is anymore.
If this is divine intervention, that god deserves no ones praise
If there really is a god and afterlife first thing I’m doing is asking if they had any control over any of this.
If they say yes I’m going to go primal and shit in my hand and throw it at them.
The thing that’s done the most to restore some kind of faith in me, is the fact that stories of the antichrist include people who pretend they are good Christians following him. The closest I can come to Christ is if I call most “Christians” I hear “antichrist-ians”.
Who could have predicted this? Surely not after Musk fired the entire super charger team and then had to hire them back?
Didn’t he also fire anyone who was able to maintain Twitter and had to scramble for them back?
No, definitely no pattern. Musk is the best man for the job
MORON
…shit! Where’s the nukulier button? You know? …sir, you fired the only people who knew…call them back! …sir we don’t have their phone number or email!
It’s all good, he knows a lot about nuclear.
Stupid leader doing stupid things. More at 11
I honestly hope they never manage to contact a single one.
Send a raven
Yeah they probably welded themselves in the launch silos, no chance of abandoning post
I would be asking for a year of salary up front, in addition to my regular paycheck.
Because there is no way in hell I would trust this jackal with my job security.

I’d also be asking for a significant raise and to keep any severance money, tax free.
And a big fat bonus.
and two new cars.
But not teslas
Hell no. No one that smart would even dream of driving one of those trash heaps.
And my axe!
I also choose this guy’s axe.
That’s an old reference from the dark place, friend.
4 years.
Minimum.
But that’s just one more step towards privatizing everything in government. This is what he wants.
It’s what they want. He just wants more money and power, and doesn’t care how it happens.
while it sucks, these are also real people in the balance. this might also be a rare chance to stick the the muskovite and the orange demagogue with consequences, and by god, we need to take everyone of those chances we get
I understand the real people part, but you wouldn’t be sticking anything to anyone. We’re talking about the most powerful person on the planet along with trump.
“Move fast, break things.”
“No, not like that!”
Who would take an offer with a decades long history of not paying their bills?
Find the place in the US that’s farthest from any nuclear reactor, they probably moved there.
