Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

How many senators or house members do we need to lobby to stop this?

More importantly, how do I get into a position to even begin attempting to lobby them?

None, because it's not a real department, and has as much legal meaning as any made up department you and me can think of. But if course if Trump acts as if it's real and listens to it's opinions (which have the same legal weight as any private person's opinions), then it doesn't matter it's not real.
