I see where he is getting criticism for allegedly not being responsive to sea turtle assistance during the cold snap.
Will be interesting to see how this plays out. If he had the resources, he should have stepped up IMHO. |

Just a little chaos may be distracting the Director (and all federal employees):

OPM employee here, we are not the bad guysHR (self.fednews)

I'm a current employee at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). This is a throwaway account for obvious reasons. I’m posting this because people need to know what’s going on at OPM.
I’ve been an OPM employee for nearly a decade and a Federal Employee for almost 20 years. I’ve never witnessed anything even remotely close to what’s happening right now. In short, there's a hostile takeover of the federal civil service.
Let me say this in no uncertain terms — OPM has been compromised and taken over. The very backbone of American Government, the HR of all HR in the U.S. Government has been taken over by outside politicals. In just five days, they managed to push aside dozens of non-political, career civil servants who were there specifically to prevent the civil service from becoming the President's henchmen.
The current Acting Director, Charles (Chuck) Ezell is a low-level branch chief. He's the friendliest “yes man” you'll ever meet. He never says no. It’s clear they pushed aside all the high-level non political civil servants who refused to do Donald Trump's bidding, until they found Chuck.
Under his name, they’ve sent numerous requests to all the agencies to collect information on gov't employees that they see as a threat to their agenda. Instructions say to send these lists to Amanda Scales. But Amanda is not actually an OPM employee, she works for Elon Musk. She wasn’t even properly cleared by OPM Personnel Security.
Our CIO, Melvin Brown, (also a non political career public servant) was pushed aside just one week into his tenure because he refused to setup email lists to send out direct communications to all career civil servants. Such communications are normally left up to each agency.
Instead, an on-prem (on-site) email server was setup. Someone literally walked into our building and plugged in an email server to our network to make it appear that emails were coming from OPM. It's been the one sending those various “test” message you've all seen. We think they're building a massive email list of all federal employees to generate mass RIF notices down the road.
The non-political civil servants here at OPM are watching helplessly as our government is being systematically dismantled bit by bit. Even the IGs are being fired to prevent them from investigating the numerous whistleblower complaints we've filed.
Please share this and tell the world that OPM is not the bad guy. We're just as helpless to stop this as the rest of our fellow public servants. Hopefully someone out there can help us, but it’s looking pretty grim.

Yah, nah.... I'll believe that when I see it. Over the years, many, many 'across-the-board pay raises' have been introduced in the Biannual Legislative Sessions, only to fall flat. The last session got a decent raise for us, so I'm thinking another one this session isn't gonna happen.
After 26 years, I pretty much maxed out in the steps for my classification. And years ago, they made sure all the State Agencies had similar classifications, so you couldn't make substantially more just because you worked in Agency X.
But Sweet Jams in the YouTube link!  |

Aw shucks CS. You know that's never going to happen. The only way to deal with these clowns is to fire all their sorry worthless asses and replace them with new, non DEI blood that gives a crap about this country. I really feel sorry for that poor little whiney wokeedokee - NOT!!!! _________________ Now that food has replaced my sex life I can't even get into my own pants!!!!!!!!
Even duct tape can't fix stupid ... but it can muffle the sound!!! |
