OK I won't be a spoiler, but it's a doozie.

Thanks. I got the main theme without having to watch. I try to pace myself. I did watch the interviews with Patel. That's enough for one day.
I urge everyone to take a look at the fednews subreddit on Reddit.
You will be able to see what is happening in real time from the perspective of federal workers.
They received another intimidating email last night, pushing them to resign.
They are pointing out that anyone who falls for this tactic will not get paid, as that is standard for Trump. There is also no money in the budget to pay them.
The emails are coming from a non -secure, non government server and are the product of Elon Musk and Amanda Scales.
If you care about these people at all, consider contacting your senators.
These emails are being sent at night, after normal work hours. I do not understand why this is not considered a massive security threat to our nation.
A reporter asked why Trump had not gone to the crash scene, where divers continue to work to recover the bodies of the lost souls, Trump replied thus:
"US President Donald Trump responded sarcastically to questions about whether he would be visiting the site of the deadly crash over the Potomac River in Washington D.C., asking reporters at the White House: “You want me to go swimming?”
'Want me to go swimming?': Trump raps reporter on being asked if he will visit Washington plane crash site (msn.com)
I am to the point I want nothing to do with anyone who supports Trump.
And one more, that USAID employees have been fired based on donations and voting records:
"Miller made a point of saying on CNN the other night that the names of USAID agency employees were apparently checked against poltical candidate donations/voting records. Straight up McCarthyism right therehttps://youtu.be/thMvPd-tW6U?si=wCfeU2cLIAtH61AM"
I've been under the impression that this is a return to office notice with the option to resign with severance if they choose not to do so.

What should we tell our senators? "Oh my gosh, they're treating us like non-government employees and requiring us to return to office or face consequences!"
Please, everyone, I urge you to read in this subreddit to see what is actually happening.
Read the memo from Robert Reich to all the federal workers which lays out why the email they received is deceptive and a trap, and no one should sign it.
I have contacted my senator, and posted here, it's all I can think of to do right now.
