Why would you do the via email and not an official letter? People see it as spam or it might be the wrong email adres. Fucking amateurs.
Because this is all from DOGE bs. They probably did a mail merge and said, “if you did nothing wrong.. ignore this email… but if you did, you got 7 days. Herp derp.”
We already knew Elon and Donald doesn’t know shit about the Federal Government since Day 1 and hired morons.
That's just it. Our highest government institutions are now almost entirely by rank dipshits who don't know how anything works. They're worse than amateurs. At least amateurs know enough to understand their own shortcomings.
Because this is who the American people voted for.
Because you're governed by a fascist dictator who you have given unlimited authority to do whatever the fuck he chooses. And he is.
Because none of the people in charge know what they are doing.
There is one good thing about this, if email is now official means of primary government communication, that means it's a guaranteed right that has to be provided for free.
are you out of your mind? the only official channel of government communication is twitter (x)!
This is Truth Social erasure, and I will ~~not~~ stand for it
Only benefits for elderly people are done through Twitter, everyone else has to fax.
Of course sending this letter to an American citizen in the first place is bad to begin with.
