DEIAtruth@opm.gov is asking for non-stop spam. DDOS the fuck out of the US government.

Spam is easy to filter out. It's important to make it look as authentic as possible

Finally a use case for LLMs!

Oh God, I hope no one knows how to write an LLM script to write huge numbers of plausible-sounding reports sent from anonymous email accounts. It would be even worse if the reports were set up to send investigators into organizations that shouldn't exist, like ICE.

The way this is worded...

I dont think this is to go after minorities. It will have that effect, at least for minorities who received a promotion or position change within the last 4 months, but that isn't the goal here.

This is to lay the groundwork to fire a very specific person. Somebody the president likely doesn't have the ability to unilaterally fire himself, but somebody he can throw under the bus and perhaps have a show trial thrown their way, which would begin the process to remove that person.

Question: who has the ability to block necessary parts of the administration's coming goals, can't directly be fired by the president, and has oversight over the employment contracts of federal employees?

Btw, there's no apparent reason anyone couldn't send them an email. Would be a shame if they received so much email that it made it difficult to spot real ones.

I got this too. No way in hell I’m going to bring attention my way. I hate that my application to move positions got thrown out because of this guy.
