My summary of OMB's proposed Federal Financial Assistance rule was based on 22 years as an NIH Program Official and the damage I saw to science funding would be. I want to widen the lens now: scientists are not the only ones who should be alarmed. elizabethginexi.substack.com/p/this-new-o...

The keywords in the Congressional statement are "illegal orders". If the order is legal, it just be followed. No one is arguing that. If an order is illegal, such as shooting unarmed civilians, a service member is obligated to decline. "Just following orders" is not a legal defense at trial.

First they push 24% of rangers out the door, and tell us we can’t hire anyone to backfill those positions. Then, they tell us to fill those positions with seasonal (temporary) rangers—the positions in the NPS with the least protections.
Text reads “the national Park service still owes about 100 seasonal employees their salary after the government shut down which is illegal. Bullies always pick on the most vulnerable people in the NPS that’s our seasonal employees.” under the text is a skull and crossbones wearing a Ranger hat.Text reads “the law requires that all government employees get paid back after the shutdown ends. That’s up to $200,000 of wages being withheld from seasonal workers. Rangers at multiple national parks have not been paid. Not only is the NPS breaking the law, but they are abusing the people who help your run.” In the middle of the page is the NPS arrowhead.A screenshot of a news article with the headline some Park Rangers are still owed pay after the shutdown and a picture of the shoulder of a uniformed ranger. Below the screenshot text reads “Trump and his administration have been taking every chance possible to take away the rights of rangers. Every day is a fight for what we deserve.”Text reads “seasonal employees are the heartbeat of the NPS. Despite 24% of Rangers getting pushed out of the NPS we aren’t allowed to hire anyone… How are we expected to keep the parks open when we’re down 1/4 of our staff? We’ve been told to fill all of the vacancies with seasonal employees, but now our seasonal employees aren’t getting the respect (and legal protections) they deserve.” Below the text is a group of rangers with their hands in the middle of a circle.

I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.
