Those seeking a job in the federal government will now have to write an essay in support of President Donald Trump's executive orders, according to a memo from the Office of Personnel Management.

Vince Haley, the White House's head of domestic policy, wrote in the May 29 memorandum that all civil service applicants must answer a series of essays as part of the job recruitment process, including one about how they would "help advance" Trump's policy priorities.

I'm not quite sure how, even after reading the text, but this must somehow violate the Hatch Act, right? Or something else? The first amendment? Something? Please? Surely the president can't coerce political speech as a condition of employment?

best i can do is ask ChatGPT to generate that crap, since trump and his court use it to make policies for the country

Donald Trump is a thin-skinned cunt.

The real surprise here is that the essays are required to be written in Russian for easier grading. /s

I don't think learning Russian will be necessary as grok will do all the translating, (and probably all the writing too)

I count nottheonion communities on eight instances. Yes, that’s one of them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

but you didn't actually mention any one of them. For that you can use ! and your Lemmy client should suggest a community

It still won't mention it, but I'll link it

(and I didn't wanna come across as mean)

I figured you were offering non-obvious info since the fediverse is so new. It was appreciated even if it wasn’t what I was going for.

Voyager does start suggesting if you type !… and then letters from the start of the community name from as many instances as it can see. It’s a great feature.
