Jennifer Piggott voted for Trump three times, cheered as he promised to gut the government, and now thanks to DOGE—she’s out of a job. Whoops!
Jennifer was one of 125 West Virginians fired from the Treasury Department Bureau of Fiscal Services in Parkersburg.
Check out the video, which shows a big protest against DOGE and the firings in not-at-all-liberal Pakersburg, WV.
Unsurprisingly, the state’s US senators are diving for cover. Both are “monitoring the situation.” Yawn
Meanwhile, West Virginia’s Congresswoman, Carol D Miller, is invisible on the topic. A google search and a review of her website uncovered zero info from her on the Parkersburg situation.
A spokeswoman for US Sen Shelley Moore Capito, R-WV, said the senator was asked about the situation during a virtual briefing with reporters Thursday.
“Well, we are monitoring that situation,” Capito said, according to an excerpt of the transcript of a “virtual briefing with reporters” provided by her office. “I don’t have any further details. I know that the DOGE and the President are committed to a leaner, more efficient government, and one that works more efficiently for the taxpayer and the tax dollar.
“We don’t have any specifics on the Bureau of Fiscal Service. I know that’s a source of concern, and it’s always a source of concern to me anytime anyone who is living or working in West Virginia is in danger of losing their jobs,” she said.
So, are job losses elsewhere acceptable, Senator?
A representative for US Sen. Jim Justice, R-WV, declined comment until more information becomes available and said they are also monitoring the situation.
