Some moderators of subreddit for federal employees may be compromised.

Given the shock and awe that is believed to be "all part of the plan" to confuse and overwhelm  America into giving up, and in no way possibly reflects things spiraling out of the puppet master's control after getting his strings tangled so early during dress rehearsal, it can be hard to keep up with ALL of the things. 

If you went by the narrative being pushed by previously somewhat trusted news networks, which were also coincidentally purchased prior to the election by some of America's wealthiest white men, you may have noticed how "woke" culture is finally dead, and Americans just don't really have the energy to resist anymore. In other words, to quote another former president, "Mission Accomplished." 

However, if you follow the online updates being reported by many of the federal employees who are lucky enough to experience the production of #Fascism! up close and personal, you might have been noticing a whole lot of issues the media isn't really covering. 

On Tuesday, as Trump began to unleash the calculated chaos laid out by the best lawyers and policy makers money could buy, many federal employees reported receiving department emails alerting them of complete departmental budget freezes hours before Trump announced his sweeping plan to freeze federal spending.

Interestingly, there were even reports of Medicaid portals being frozen in all 50 states on the r/FedNews subreddit before an announcement which seemed to indicate the Medicaid freeze would only be effecting some states such as Illinois and Oregon. However, as originally claimed in the subreddit, it was soon revealed by news sources such as MSNBC that Medicaid portals were indeed frozen in all 50 states. Luckily, as the administration seemed to be scrambling for the undo button, a kindly federal judge temporarily blocked the order for them. 

The next day Trump seemingly rescinded the entire memo before a statement was released to make it clear that the freeze was still in effect even though the memo was indeed rescinded, and an offer of a buyout had been made to some federal employees... and I'm still not really sure where we as a nation stand with that memo. So once again, success! 

Another story that was originally reported on the subreddit has gained some media attention after a lawsuit was brought forth by federal employees, and allegedly involves a potential violation of cyber security policy. 

Several employees across multiple departments have reported receiving emails containing memos they believed to be from the Office of Personnel Management. However, it was later discovered that the emails were actually being redirected to an outside source that may have been tied to a server which was set up in a federal office after a career employee refused to allow a direct line of communication to all federal employees. 

Other users have reported retrieving names of the memo authors from metadata who are also linked to the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025. 

When this information was posted along with the names on the subreddit, employees reported metadata was being scrubbed from memos, leading to speculation that the subreddit may be being monitored. 

On Wednesday, a user posted content with a news article and encouraged federal employees not to carry out illegal orders being given to them, such as those which resulted in an inspector general being escorted from her office despite being terminated without the 30 days notice required by law, and indicated that those that did so could be considered complicit in carrying out the agenda. 

Comments were then made on the post which claimed the original poster was making a false dichotomy, reposting an article that had already been posted, and seemed to allege that the refusal by federal employees to follow illegal orders, could itslef be considered an illegal act and discouraged federal employees from creating more trouble for themselves. 

Other comments on the post mentioned the author names which were previously uncovered in memo metadata, and the post was deleted by subreddit moderators for reposting a previously posted article. 

When the OP attempted to create a second post asking for clarification on how passive resistance could be considered illegal, seemingly hostile comments were made by a user and the post was again deleted, but this time with no reason given. 

Several hours later, the OP witnessed the same user that originally suggested refusing to follow orders could have legal consequences, encouraging another user to report any orders they believe might be illegal to their representative. When OP questioned the user, the user attempted to explain the earlier conversation had only been due to a misunderstanding of believing OP was suggesting using violence before the user deleted their account.
