While I agree it makes some sense to not warn the team ahead of time, pointing employees to twitter for an announcement like this is absurd. Like, how hard would it be to attach the same document to the very same email they sent out telling them to go to twitter?
Harder than linking, and possible that some other data is leaked in the documents, like metadata or some such. Any of that data would be leaked to the press.
I dont consider it difficult to copy/paste text into an email, so the singular link to twitter to is distasteful to me. No one on lemmy is going to like it because we all have strong opinions on consolidated social media, or else we wouldn’t be here.
These are Whitehouse staffers though. They have Twitter accounts because they have to. It’s a bit weird, but whatever. It got done.
