One federal employee said in a court filing that they “cannot in good conscience pretend to agree with President Trump’s policies.”
Government employees asked a federal judge Wednesday to block the Trump administration from encouraging job applicants to demonstrate their loyalty to the president’s agenda.
In a lawsuit filed earlier this month, a group of federal labor unions argues that the White House’s “merit hiring plan” violates applicants’ First Amendment rights. The plan, put forth by the Office of Personnel Management, includes the following short essay question:
“How would you help advance the President’s Executive Orders and policy priorities in this role? Identify one or two relevant Executive Orders or policy initiatives that are significant to you, and explain how you would help implement them if hired.”
i see your law knowledge also comes from comics 😂

I can try to find something easier to read, but I didn’t find any actual comics.
What are you having difficulty with in that link?
The most relevant bit is this:
You’re on a US based social media website, it would not be difficult at all to have a lawsuit based on an exchange here heard in American courts.
You could ignore it, but then you’d almost certainly lose and have to fight collections.
But if I’m not doing a good enough job explaining, you’re probably better off reading the full article
maybe they did not tell you that, but there is whole rest of the world behind us borders and not everything is “us based”.
i am not us citizen on a website that is not hosted on us soil, doing something that is absolutely not illegal in my jurisdiction.
the only international cooperation you would get from justice system in my country would be showing you the middle finger, because “american snowflake did not like something they read on the internet” is not a crime here. go back to comics, or cry to mods, whichever you prefer.
Correct…
But you’re on a lemmy.world community right now. And it’s US based, and hosted on US soil, even tho your local instance may not be. But this community is, and this is where your comments are going and where they’re being posted.
Doesn’t matter if it’s a crime there.
Or even if it’s a crime in America.
Because a civili lawsuit isn’t criminal…
That link didn’t go into the difference of civil lawsuits and criminal prosecution in America, I could find one if you’re not able on your own tho
I’m happy to try and help you understand, if you don’t want help understanding, it’s as easy as not replying again. Although I’m afraid continued incivil comments will likely keep resulting in your comments being deleted.
you know what? go ahead and sue me, that will show me how right you are 😂
What would that prove that the SC ruling from that article hasn’t already proven?
I’ve shown you proof that it can happen, along with a very detailed article going into the specifics of how it happens.
But you’ve went off on a tangent, I started with:
And now you’re arguing I couldn’t win?
So you agree with me?
Admittedly it’s hard to review the exchange after the majority of your comments have been removed.
it could help you understand that us supreme court doesn’t rule behind us borders. whether it actually would, i have no idea.
i understand you are trying unconventional attack vectors, but 2 out of 5 is not a majority, swetie. i see you are as good in math as you are in law. i am done with this discussion, bye.
But…
I’ve linked you an article multiple times, even quoting the relevant sections on forum determination…
It would all happen in the US courts, again, like the link I provided explained in depth. It doesn’t matter where you are, because your commenting on a community hosted in America.
Like you’re right that US SC doesn’t effect me suing you in your country’s legal system, but literally no one is saying that. And I could have sworn we already got on the same page that this would happen in US courts?
And that’s fine, all you have to do is stop replying.
