@DiaperDon started trending yesterday after this whole fiasco and the man threw another massive hissy fit demanding that Section 230 be repealed and that Twitter was faking trends to make him look bad.

I so will not miss his bullshit in any way. It's not even funny any more.

Sure they went up, trump planned all along to cut taxes on the ultra rich and corporations in addition to adding more
federal dollars into producing domestic oil/gas then loosening regulations around air/water pollution.

Close but trump did those things because it benefited him. The fact that other rich people benefited from his policies as well is of no concern to him unless there is a direct benefit to him (ie campaign donations).

From what I understand section 230 shields websites from liability for what users post. So if section 230 were terminated, they would become responsible for the comments users post?

So, if Trump does this, the first thing that Twitter does is ban his account. Why would they take any chances for being liable for what the idiot says?

I like how in that press conference, after getting frustrated for being asked whether or not he will concede after the electoral college vote he cuts off the reporter and calls on someone else, who then proceeds to ask him the exact same question. Beautiful!

On his way out.... Trump wants to bring back executions being carried out by firing squads. Regulation to exclude transgender people from homeless shelters and loosen water-saving standards on showerheads

Trump Is Racing to Bring Back Firing-Squad Executions Before He Leaves Office

Regarding bringing back firing squads ... He should carefully consider what he’s asking for.

This would be great if he pulls it off, especially because he doesn't realize that there are, well more than one scenarios where he could himself end up in front of one of his newly-restored firing squads.

Yes. The head of a particular agency, with permission from OPM (who must approve the hiring of any person that served as a political appointee in the last 5 years), can hire a political appointee directly into a civil service position. Since OPM is currently controlled by Trump, it stands to reason that permission is already rubber stamped for any such moves.

It is the same method used by Michael Ellis (who was unqualified for his appointment in the first place) to move from an appointed position on the National Security Council in the White House over to be hired as a legal counsel with the NSA. He is the guy that tried to classify John Bolton's book, and was one of the guys that was feeding intelligence over to Devin Nunes on alleged Trump election survellience. Kash Patel (who started in an appointed position as one of Devin Nunes' own appointed stooges) was just hired by DOD to become Chief of Staff for Trump's new Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller. When Biden replaces Miller, he'll be shuffled off to some other DOD job. And, Trent Benishek was hired from an appointed position in the White House over to serve as the general counsel at GSA (who is still holding up the presidential transition process by refusing to announce Biden is President-elect).

All three started out as political appointees and are now working directly for Uncle Sam in $100,000+ per year positions. It will be very difficult for Biden to get rid of any of them as long as they keep their noses clean and stay away from any overt political actions.

I’m not familiar with civil service jobs but couldn’t Biden have agency/department heads move these guys to a cubicle in an empty building located in inconvenient location making copies of big stuff like budget bills?


On a different note, once Trump’s portrait is ready to be hung in the WH they should hang it in the normal location but turn it around so he faces the wall.

So after four years of Trump running rampant on the govt's dime, trashing the Constitution and the Rule of Law in order to establish that little dictatorship he couldn't survive without, he gets the thumbs down on a repeat. During those years he's had the overwhelming approval and encouragement of the party leadership and the vast majority of its voting bloc and still does, apparently to the very end and beyond his term.

Obviously, if a guy as incompetent and as psychologically damaged as Trump is can keep his popularity rating among the party he leads in the high eighties and higher since taking office then it's safe to assume the party itself really doesn't care who they choose so long as that person is healthy enough to successfully complete their terms and is obedient to the wishes of those who actually own and operate that party. It's been shown quite clearly it's not their rank and file working class. They've been conditioned into bots that vote for party above country, no party platform or high-minded ideology necessary, just straight up all out war on the commie liberal socialist immigrants and their hosts who "infest the Democrat Party".

Gotta hand it to the Repubs for distilling down their wants and needs into a muck filled cauldron of hate, fear and racist attitudes resulting in a potent brew of pseudo religious/patriotic Confederate/Nazi flag waving folks who have abandoned all pretense of having any morals and ethics in order to, of all things, keep Trump and crooks like him in control of OUR gov't.

In theory, it depends upon whether the transfer is considered a demotion or not. They can only be demoted (which is a form of punishment) with cause and such actions are subject to agency and MSPB appeals processes with federal court oversight.

And, generally, an employee can't be forced to accept a lateral transfer to another equivalent position unless the agency they are employed by is eliminating their position. Since the agency would have to eliminate that particular position for ALL employees in that location, that ain't happening to get rid of one useless bloodsucking tick of a person.

Their supervisor could try to make them so miserable that they quit, but that is the sort of thing that gets you sued (and I could see these type of folks receiving substantial "contributions" towards funding a lawsuit).

On a different note, once Trump’s portrait is ready to be hung in the WH they should hang it in the normal location but turn it around so he faces the wall.

I'd say put it on the inside door of a basement toilet cubicle. However, I could also see that constituting cruel and unusual punishment (who'd want to be stared at by the great orange turd while trying to do their business...).

How about this?

They'll just amend it so that section 230 only shields websites that don't moderate speech in any way. That way, the politicians get to have their cake and eat it too.

How about this?

Okay, now that is just freakin' disturbing. I'll probably see that image in my nightmares now.

Thanks for that.

EDIT: I wonder where I could buy one of those. I know somebody who deserves one for Christmas...

Here's a list of Trumps "midnight regulations" of policy changes on his way out. The ones highlighted in green are finalized. Some scorched earth stuff in there....

Tracking the Trump Administration’s “Midnight Regulations”

The administration rushed to implement dozens of policy changes in its final days. We followed some of the most consequential and controversial.

projects.propublica.org

If needed, these can be reversed, correct? I guess it's gonna be hard to reverse an environmental de-regulation once the trees have been cut down.

Most anything that doesn't go through Congress or have fixed terms (and for Trump, that's a lot) can be reversed. Trump is just being spiteful and creating more work for Biden's team.

 

[Steltek]

Yeah, they can be undone. But it will take a substantial amount of time and effort to do so, and the lobbyists will drag their feet kicking and screaming to keep it from happening.

I think that as a general rule the revisions/revocations have to be published by the affected federal agency in the Federal Register as a notice of proposed rulemaking and then be given a public comment period (60 days is usually considered standard, but this can be shorter or longer depending upon the subject matter). The public comments are supposed to be evaluated before the proposed rule can be implemented. Though, some agencies have routinely ignored public comments (i.e. Trump's assistant turd at the FCC, Ajit Pai) in rulemaking.

The Department of Transportation has a good page here regarding the rulemaking process - the same general process applies to all Federal agencies.

[Thump553]

The more I learn about Trumpers moving into civil service protected jobs the madder I get at those that quit in the last four years because they disagreed with Trump and his peons. Their surrender made it that much easier for the Trump corruption to spread.

Well, all things considered, Trump got served what McConnell wanted for Obama but didn't: a single term in office. That Trump is being removed from a post he never deserved in the first place is true justice being served and it's also a warning of sorts and a lesson to learn for the Repubs (not that they'll heed and learn a single thing from Trump's demise).

Still, to think that an imbecile like Trump whose racist leanings and blatant selfishness garnered so many votes in support of his reelection bid is both frightening and alarming when considering why that is and what can be done to insure that the Repubs will never ever be allowed to install another moron like him into office because if given the chance, they'll do it again and they'll do it for reasons that have nothing to do with hiring the most qualified person they can come up with. If they think they had, of which I think many of them still do, then we as a nation are headed down a very perilous path indeed.

With Trump, what the Repubs revealed of themselves is their ability to be easily conned into believing a whole lot of lies, act irresponsibly based on those lies and then out of what, spite? they go all in with supporting those lies despite being shown time after time the overwhelming evidence to the contrary, logic and common sense being dumped down the flusher along with the credibility and legitimacy that goes hand in hand with it.

We're just lucky that this time, Trump enraged enough folks to overcome the Repub's vaunted spin machine's ability to rile up their own people of whom displayed a complete disregard of and overwhelming support for Trump's attempt at dismantling our democracy in favor creating a long term plutocratic dictatorship.
