Elon and Vivek need to establish a platform to channel federal employees who wish to speak up as Whistleblowers.

And to do that now.

Elon and Vivek may wish to inform the Whistleblowers that they have a generous number of positions available to those who come forward now:

Those who are committed to making America great again, to making America healthy again, and to making the federal government transparent again.

With respect to stray animals and the police -- something that needs to get checked is whether the police are under some sort of time limit -- they have to get some sort of incident closed or else face penalties or censure. To what extent could a responding officer report 'I spent 30 minutes trying to catch the dog, but I couldn't, so I just left things like that'? or 'I spent 4 hours trying to catch a dog, and finally did, and took it to an animal shelter'. Killing a 'believed-dangerous' dog may be good for merit points, futzing around all afternoon, the reverse.

Could a lot of this be avoided if, when people phone the police asking for help with a stray animal, the are told to call animal control instead? Are the people who are calling the police about this unaware of animal control -- or is there no such thing where they live?
