We have a government that is literally fighting against itself. The federal workforce has always been more liberal than the population as a whole, but in recent years things have gotten really bad. Prior to this year, Democrats had been in control of the White House for 12 of the past 16 years. Over time, leftists that were hired for key positions just kept hiring more leftists underneath them. In fact, it got to a point where DEI policies at various agencies essentially institutionalized the systematic hiring of leftists. By the end of the Biden administration, leftist domination of most of our federal agencies was virtually complete. But now we have a new administration that most of our leftist federal workers absolutely detest. Many of them have absolutely no intention of cooperating with the new administration, and some of them have started to openly rebel against it.
A secretive movement known as “#AltGov” has become the epicenter of that rebellion. Those that are involved primarily communicate through anonymous social media accounts and an encrypted messaging app…
Calling itself #AltGov, the network has developed a visible, public-facing presence in recent weeks through Bluesky accounts, most of which bear the names or initials of federal agencies, aimed at getting information out to the public – and correcting disinformation – about the chaos being unleashed by the Trump administration.
With 40 accounts to date, their collective megaphone is getting louder, as most of the accounts have tens of thousands of followers, with “Alt CDC (they/them)” being the largest, at nearly 95,000 followers.
The network has also formed a group and a series of sub-groups on Wire, the encrypted messaging app, to share information and develop strategies – as played out on Saturday. Most people don’t realize this, but the “#AltGov” movement was very active during the first Trump administration.
Of course during the Biden administration it went away, because the leftists inside our federal agencies saw no need to rebel against Joe Biden.
But now it is back with a vengeance…
It looks like insubordination is back on the menu, boys!! The secret underground progressive/lefty/collectivist/Marxist/socialist/communist/murderers that are working as federal government’s executive branch employees. I think that the insubordination, when found will be harshly punished each and every time by the executive branch heads. They are starting with USAID, and possibly up next are DOJ and FBI #Alt personnel or even the FEMA gang of insubordinate incompetents. Trump, Musk and etc. are probably going to have to rid us of whole parasitical departments and gut out many other agencies and sub-offices. Hooray!! All of these unelected bureaucratic tyrants are headed for the door, just as the voters chose.
