News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

I can't imagine anyone would want to come back after being abruptly fired from what was likely a long career requiring expertise and multiple security clearances, likely after a military career. To have all that just brushed away with the swipe of a hand like you're entire life is fucking meaningless... I can't imagine what that was like for those people. People that had been loyal to the machine for a lifetime.
And then this asshole has the balls to ask them to come back? Wow, just wow!
He doesn't even have the balls to do that. He's asking their coworkers to do it for him.
Yep, this is 100% a lie.
They're so afraid of looking weak by admitting fault they'd rather look incompetent by claiming the US Government doesn't know how to contact the people in charge of our nukes.
Great time to negotiate a salary increase.
Though to be honest if you were working that job, I imagine you weren't financially struggling.
Yeah, same thing happened when Musk fired a bunch of critical Twitter people.
I'd be like "50 million single payment, cash goes into an offshore bank account thats tax free. And I get my own private island."
Well, Elon IS running the government like a CEO. Clueless, fucking moronic CEO which, lets be honest, most of them are.
Like Twitter rip
Answer is simple:
Double the pay or f**k right off
I bet they need to eat, and this will give them time to find a new job while still eating.
Also, as their coverage will end with the job change they're certainly planning, it's time to get the entire family in for dental check-ups and to the GP for tests and jabs.
