  1. There is a grim Armand Iannucci-esque hilarity to these chucklefucks who are claiming to cut waste and increase efficiency in the federal government not even knowing what the people they’re firing do and then being at a loss as to how to rehire them when they realize that it was important.

    At this point I’m going to start a betting pool on what preventable catastrophe kills us first. So far rogue nuke and bird flu pandemic are the betting favorites.

  2. Between this, the nuclear weapons staff being fired, the accidental takedown of the Medicaid portal, and so on… I think it’s safe to say that incompetence remains one of the guardrails we have against this administration.

    “Your fired. …oh! Uh…What was your job again?”

    “What!? Why didn’t you ask that first!? I oversee-“

    *”Oversaw.”*

    “I oversaw the ‘we all don’t explode’ program.”

    “Oh…that sounds important…what happens now that you’re fired?”

    “…”

    “…”

    *ballon popping noises*
