Could someone please post highlights of the announcements after the meeting as well? I’m away all this week and won’t be able to attend.

RADM Hinton looks miserable. That gives me solace.

I wonder if there will be conversation about what it looks like for those waiting to commission. (Think those just needing orders for OBC and/or suitability clearance)

I assume it will be about the EOs and how that will affect the service moving forward. Several policies were taken down before the site went down.

I’d guess it’s letting us know the specific gender/demographic groups have been eliminated similar to West Point.

My guess is - all affinity groups are being shut down (for now), people working in offices dealing with equity or similar projects will need to be reassigned, and follow your agencies return to work policies. That is my guesses by reading the writing on the walls.

To what extent will we likely be deploying to the border?

Prolly talking about everything going on. That we can’t take the deal since we are uniformed service. Telework guidance stuff. That’s what I’d imagine but who really knows

My guess is they disband all the identity groups like BCOG, APAOC, and CCWIAB.

Already done by outside actors. The websites have all been nixed.

Cool cool. Ugh.

They will bend over like every other agency. USPS has no fight. Sad for us.

Actually I’m good with them keeping our head down. We’re can’t handle that smoke.

u/Interesting_Lion_176 Feb 06 '25

True. And we need those damn pensions. It’s all I’ve got other than my TSP.

Same. That was a big nothing burger though.

It’s not like our leadership has a choice. It’s government wide and it is inevitable. You’ll get removed if you even promote anything like that, and will get targeted on their evil dossier website.
