At the very least it is conspiracy to commit sedition.

Anyone who engages in that should be fired and charged with treason or insurrection.

Problem solved.

If they still resist, move the agency out of D.C. to a red state, non-capital city.

Such as Notrees, Texas.

This abandoned schoolhouse is an ideal spot for some relocated Federal employees.

Yup! And you just know they will walk out with all the data!! They have probably subverted the data accounting system that tracks data access by each user. All should be immediately fired. Any failure in the system post firing should be met with criminal indictments to all the relevant parties. Find the immunity talkers and rip that subversion network wide open.

To me, this is just like Hilzebub’s private server in the bathroom.

Who do these people think they are? Private sector company, they were fired yesterday when the IT Security team tracked them down. Unbelievable arrogance.

I meant if these federal workers worked at a private sector company they would have been fired. I sure they have not been fired at the gobment.

“The goal is to get their message across while not violating any rules covering workplace communications,”

But there ARE rules for recordkeeping, and crypto messaging I’m sure falls out of that.

As I've said before....

Our government is a bloated, stinking, rotten body of commie liberals... In his first term Trump needs to use the machete to hack away the decaying flush of what's left of our republic... Maybe in his second term the scalpel could be used to root out all those wonks that are embedded like blood sucking ticks on the backside of our soon to be great nation....

But...that's just my opinion...

Unfortunately, Signal may be the best encrypted message app out there.
