Trump's "Make Yourself a Snitch" Order

 

I don't care if you think the much-maligned Federal workforce should be fired in toto because you hate their meddling ways, but the squeal-on-your-colleagues order that Trump issued last Wednesday is pure police-state bullshit. Trump's ExecOrder threatened federal employees with “adverse consequences” if they fail to report on colleagues who defy orders "to purge diversity, equity and inclusion efforts from their agencies."

Lovely. We're advancing very plainly to a dictatorship, where snitching and ratting out are virtues. The firing of inspector generals was not even the first indication.

There's an election (theoretically, at the moment) in less than two years.
