Who needs to worry about Trump or DOGE when Connecticut is releasing killer cannibals back into the public?

Doctors who’ve been treating Tyree Smith said he’s been fully rehabilitated, thanks to medications that quelled the voices in his head.

"To quote the director there, he is a joy. He is considered a support to the other people there,” forensic psychiatrist Dr. Caren Teitelbaum said.

“Once he was stable, he was a really calming presence for other patients.”

Ah, that's sweet.

The government definitely needs to be trimmed down. My beef is the way they’re going about it. Treating fed employees as criminals just because they have a government job, mass firings without an exit interview or evaluation report. Most of all gloating about it. I’ve had to fire dozens of people and with the exception of one it broke my heart to do it.

As I’ve told before my daughter was one of the fired, in her termination email it sighted “poor performance” which was a TOTAL LIE, in her 18 months she never got a negative performance evaluation and her latest was perfect. She sent a copy of her evaluation report and a copy of the email but doesn’t expect to hear anything from the kids in charge.

I was listening to my ex Congressman the other day and when he was cleaning out his office he had the emblems of each branch of the military in his office. Whoever was in charge of the labor sent 8 people up to his office to get the emblems. They were made of styrofoam! At most 2 people could have done the job. That’s the crap that needs to be eliminated.

I am sorry to hear of your daughter losing her job, my daughter also works for the government as an auditor in the DOD. Her job was also on the line. For a long time federal employment has been bloated and ineffectual. To bring the federal work force back to accountability will cause trauma in many areas. This is a hard thing to stomach if a family member is affected. In an effort to restore the publics confidence that their tax dollars are being spent wisely this process seems to be at an accelerated pace. There will be casualties along the way, not all deserving of termination, I will put my hope in the positive our government is taking.

Don’t blame them. I’m sure the transplants are insufferable.

I can only imagine….

I’ve heard it’s mainly L.A. people escaping in California covid lockdowns and discovered how well you can live in Mexico if you have money.

Mexico City especially has had protests about restaurants with English menus and people not speaking Spanish well over a year ago.

I mean the irony is like a Monty Python skit….

Arbitrarily firing good people does not build public confidence - it undermines it. The Trump base is all excited, but if this keeps up in this way, Trump will soon begin to hear it from both House and Senate republicans.

Indeed, @Hunt anything were it my daughter, both she and I would be writing letters to my congressman and both senators. There is a building backlash. Trump is a lame duck and not running again. Most of the rest of the republican leadership are very much interested in their next election.
