Summary
The Trump administration mistakenly fired over 300 National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) employees, only to reverse course after realizing their roles in overseeing the U.S. nuclear arsenal.
The NNSA is housed under the Department of Energy, which is tasked with researching and oversight of nuclear power and nuclear weapons, as well as energy production in general.
The firings were part of a broader purge led by Trump and Elon Musk, which has sparked lawsuits.
Experts warn that disruptions at NNSA threaten national security.
You may ask yourself, “What is that beautiful house?” You may ask yourself, “Where does that highway go to?” And you may ask yourself, “Am I right, am I wrong?” And you may say to yourself, “My God, what have I done?”
Same as it ever was.
But trust me on the sunscreen.
This ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco…
You may ask yourself “what happened to the nuclear arsenal?”
Into the blue again, after the money’s gone.
