An economist with the U.S. Department of Labor who has a history of speaking to the press on behalf of the Obama administration took to Twitter to vent about Indianas new religious freedom law enacted late last week.
Elizabeth Ashack wrote:
people in the red states vote for nazis to govern, and then call themselves Christian, it will not end well for them. #BoycottIndiana
Ashacks tweet was first reported by SooperMexican at The Right Scoop.
Ashack has since deleted the tweet and also edited her Twitter profile to remove mention of her position with Labor.
The profile previously read: Economist at US Department of Labor BLS, Economics, Social Media, Stars, Planets, History, Golf, Former Wall Street, #INTJ
BLS stands for the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the agency that produces the unemployment figures released each month.
INTJ is apparently a reference to a personality type descriptor.
Ashacks attack and then cleansing of her Twitter profile of her government job is similar to that of Obama appointee Brandon Friedman whose Twitter attacks on Bowe Bergdahls platoon mates last year resulted in him altering his profile to remove mention of his position at the Department of Housing and Urban Development after he was called out by The Gateway Pundit for calling the troops psychopaths.
Ashack was featured in a 2013 report on MSNBCs All In with Chris Hayes complaining about a potential government shutdown.
In the event of a government shutdown, the first thing Elizabeth Ashack will do is apply for unemployment benefits.
Im the breadwinner because my spouse is in college, she told MSNBC on Monday, just hours before the deadline to avert a government shutdown. We dont have a lot of extra money to play around with.
Right now, Ashack is an economist for the Labor Departments Bureau of Labor Statistics. But if the government shuts down, she and hundreds of other federal employees will be indefinitely furloughed without pay. Furloughed government employees will qualify for unemployment benefits, but otherwise theyll be on their own. Meanwhile, the people actually responsible for the shutdownmembers of Congresswill continue to draw their $174,000 annual salary.
Im very upset today, said Ashack. I was scrambling around today trying to get all the money in the credit union. Its really sad whats happened in our country, and theres a total disregard for federal workers.
While economists like Ashack are typically paid around $110,000 per year according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the ranks of non-essential government employees include many who are earning far less.
Ashack also was interviewed by Reuters in 2013 about the labor market:
While the unemployment rate has fallen steadily over the last year, the share of part-time workers who want more hours has barely dropped, according to BLS statistics.
Workers are not doing well, said Elizabeth Ashack, an economist at the BLS. Theyre losing ground because wages are not growing in real terms.
The Daily Caller reported Ashack has worked at the Labor Department since 1998.
Anyone who’s pro-queer & calls Christians “Nazis” needs to read “The Pink Swastika”.
And needs to be careful tweeting out such dark thoughts.
When you hit “send”, it belongs to the whole world.
projection.
the real Nazis are the homosexuals who use the govt the punish Christians
That is really original isn't it?
Ms. Asshat is now claiming that her account was hacked. She is implementing the Weiner defense.

Well Liz I think the Christians who follow Gods Word will fare much better then those that do not? Take a hint..........
Why are my tax dollars being used to pay this woman?
I could say that about millions of individuals.
There really giving us no choice are they?
From what I remember of Myers-Biggs (the personality test), the “J” stands for “judgmental.” You don’t say!
What does she mean by “it will not end well for them.”?
The same thing Bill Ayers meant, I reckon.
I said WHAT?
The only way to solve this problem is to move the Super Bowl from San Francisco and California.
Projection.
They keep pushing and pushing while simultaneously destroying the rule of law. When they finally do start a pogrom do they think our respect for the rule of law will protect them?
I’m so mad I can’t sleep. There is no more talking to these people( who are a minority by the way) there is only preparing for what is to come.
I know, I’ve been doing that for years. I urge you not to let it get to you and just work steadily on your preps. As the old saying goes; the best revenge is to live well. In that vein, Progressives really hate happy, confident people.
