This #NPR story about the handling of #NLRB #data by #DOGE is frightening and deserves a lot more attention. It is very clear that #Musk is harvesting #government info that he and other #oligarchs can use for corporate and personal advantage. And the way they are intimidating resisters and whistleblowers is heinous. Why isn't #Congress doing anything? https://www.npr.org/2025/04/15/nx-s1-5355896/doge-nlrb-elon-musk-spacex-security

And, from #NPR: "About 20% of Americans live in an area without any other local news coverage other than their local public radio station. This is tremendously important as a public service and just because not every single person uses it every day – you know, I don't drive on our interstates every day, and yet when I need it, it's there. The same is true of public media."

Your #mastoadmin teams keep #Mastodon humming—purely on community support. Even $5/mo helps cover hosting and moderation. Donate to your server if you can.
But if you have to choose, please fund PBS / NPR and local public media first: Trump and his billionaire allies are waging a war to gut public media. Independent voices matter.

Democracy depends on a free press, and independent voices matter.
"Rescinding these funds would devastate PBS member stations and the essential role they play in communities, particularly smaller and rural stations who rely on federal funding for a large portion of their budgets."

It's unclear why #DOGE would need #access to #NLRB files that contain personally identifiable #information to complete its *mission* of improving *efficiency*, outside of employment records for potential reductions in force. The agency publishes publicly available annual performance & accountability reports & budget justifications that former NLRB members told #NPR would likely be sufficient in looking for ways to cut costs.
The email, sent to staff on behalf of #NLRB chair Marvin E. Kaplan & acting general counsel William Cowen & shared w/ #NPR by 2 NLRB employees…, said 2 #DOGE reps would be detailed to the agency from the #GSA "part-time for several months" & would largely work *remotely* [guess they’ll be using that back door].
AYFKM?!!?
#DOGE assigned to work at agency where it illegally removed data
The ad hoc Department of Govt Efficiency team is assigning 2 staffers to work at the independent agency where a #whistleblower alleged Tues DOGE may have already removed sensitive #labor #data from its systems.
Just 1 day after #NPR reported on the disclosure filed by whistleblower Daniel #Berulis, DOGE reps visited NLRB’s office in DC for a meeting.

The Trump administration has drafted a memo to Congress outlining its intent to end nearly all federal funding for public media, which includes NPR and PBS, according to a White House official who spoke to NPR.

Of course he's conservative, that's what right wing extremists are. Trump is among the final form that conservative politicians aspire to. #NPR managed to interview an absolute moron for that headline.
