Those seeking a job in the federal government will now have to write an essay in support of 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.
Softest president of all time.
He’s not a president, he is a dictator. This is the shit that dictators pull.
Just make chatgpt do it.
Other articles mentioned that they specifically disallow ChatGPT/AI chatbot assistance. And it’s 200 words, how lazy do you have to be? Oh wait, I’ve taught college writing courses, half of the submissions will miss one or both requirements.
How very North Korea of them.
Also fuck off with that you thin-skinned nitwit. If you need to be praised constantly, you are beyond fookin pathetic.
No “if” about it. This has motivated him his entire life.
It’s fucking.
I’ve applied for several jobs with the federal government on USAJobs over the years. Several have required an essay, but it’s always been dippy work-related questions like “What do you consider essential in an employee or colleague?” and stuff like that. I have NEVER seen an essay question that was related to the current administration at the time, or anything political at all. This is very fucked up, and not surprising coming from TACO Don at all.
Newsweek is garbage clickbait. Just like Reddit, people keep posting “news” from a news source that is barely reliable. Please consider to stop posting Newsweek links and use a different source, thank you.
i remember when newsweek actually used to be credible. its disgusting how many news sources have been ruined.
And even now, the media and the token “opposition party” refuse to call it what it is.
FASCISM
Honestly, this behavior sounds more a cult than fascism.
Now there’s a job to hand over to AI if ever there was one
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Couldn’t you write your essay tearing down the trump administration, not get the job, then immediately have standing to sue the government for 1st Amendment violation?
You’d have to prove you weren’t hired due to your views, and while they are morons, they’re probably not dumb enough to outright say that’s the reason they didn’t hire you. They’ll find something else on which to base their decision
Anyone that applies to be a Federal employee, at this point, probably had an essay ready to go.
…
Because handing off an entire federal government to fascists has never worked out badly /s
Like, it is fucking shocking that people were agreeing with you. Just wild levels of defeatism, although if that was really what was happening here, I doubt you’d be putting effort into getting people to stop fighting fascists…
Speaking of, do you know what you call someone who spends their time discouraging others from fighting fascism?
Unenforceable, not possible through executive order.
Totally normal presidential behavior.
That’s definitely a way to only hire those loyal to Trump and the GOP.
Surely people don’t lie to get jobs!
That’s not a bad point, but I can’t imagine lying to get a job under this administration. Then again, I’m not a terrible person.
Trump is so orange, the orangest of them all. And he plays that cool game with sticks and small balls you need to fit in the holes. Super cool. His shoes are shiny too.
Can I, please, be appointed as a Yonderbury mayor?
