Summary of text: A probationary DOE employee addressed a termination notice, highlighting their dedication and contributions over 16 years and appealing the decision

Here’s what it says: “Donald J. Trump Hellor Sir. I am one of the probationary employees terminated by the Doge at 9:00pm last night; February 14. I voted for you, Sir, three times, and I still support you,” the post reads.

“I was encouraged by the DOGE to see they were getting rid of wasteful government spending; I support that too.”

“My termination letter said I was being let go for performance reasons. I know that’s not true; I am an excellent employee. I’ve been with the Federal government for almost 16 years. Sixteen years in June,” it continues.

“I had started my career with USDA, transferred to DHS, and recently came back to USDA because it’s such a great Agency to work for. Surely that must count for something in your eyes. I’m loyal and I firmly believe that the work I do as a USDA APHIS PPQ employee is vital and important. My boss, his boss, the managers in neighboring states, all agree I’m doing an excellent job and that I’m a great asset to the team.”

“I’m the only [redacted] in the State of Kentucky and my work here is valued and honorable. Each time I voted for you, it was because I knew you’d make things right and you’d fix the wrongs. I’m counting on you now to make this right too.”
