| Joined because: | The government agencies responsible to protect concerned federal employees from exactly what I have experieneced - U.S. Office of Special Counsel and U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board - are lawbreaking failures. But too many people in DC benefit in too many ways from it - they give it a "free pass" so Congress does not oversight, so nothing changes, even though it puts us all at greater risk of a nuclear 9/11.
Many thousands of federal employees have been directly harmed by this governmental lawbreaking, all America has been indirectly harmed. I hope Assignment Zero is a vehicle to "out" this governmental lawbreaking, so Congress is forced to acknowledge it and its victims, and take action to correct it. |
| Bio: |  I am licensed, concerned, member of the engineering profession whose 20 million degreed members worldwide collectively hold civilization and much of the created order in their hands.
I have "prevailed" in numerous whistleblower related appeals, resulting from my doing my positive legal and professional duty to "blow whistles," when necessary to protect public health and safety in my employment as a nuclear safety engineer in the U.S. Department of Energy. |
