'Play hardball': Writer caught up in DOGE purge plots 'massive' and 'illegal' hit back

Raw Story

"Like a lot of people, I see the president’s self-coup and think: Is now the time folks hit the streets?"

"American government workers got so pissed off at the people running things that they called out of work and protested for weeks," she wrote.
