Title: The Man in the High Cubicle: a Deep State Megathread
Post by: CountDeMoney on May 01, 2017, 09:09:26 AM
I wanted to start this thread for all the federal employees and sharecropping fieldhand contractors that work in the US government, to note any changes you've come across in your day-to-day lives under the Trumpenreich.

All the campus information monitors--the ones that display calendar events, announcements, etc--have picture-in-picture capability;  they always had on the Weather Channel or CNN.

They are now all on Fox News.




What's up in your little corner of the Administrative State?

I am glad we don't have TVs in state government offices (perks of any kind makes the Texas taxpayers ragey) because God knows what sort of garbage they would be subjecting us to.

DirectTv offers One America News network. I found it okay. A bit right wing though.  :lol:

That new Handmaids Tail show is interesting. Though seems to be about the direction of the wrong republicans. Wonder if we'll get a Trump version in a decade

Reminds me of how I got my first TV show on the air. The company I worked at the time had a deal with some French fund. That was actually some kind of construct (I'm no expert) used by US investors to use the then-existing tax loopholes in many European countries to reduce their tax burden by investing in cultural products. Many of the investors of that fund were US defence contractors (the CEO told me which ones, wish I could remember them).

The Iraq war happened, and these contractors sunk money on that fund, which in turn financed my TV show. I owe my career to Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney.  :lol:
