Embattled Voice of America employees face termination ‘whiplash'
Several Voice of America employees based in Washington who received termination notices last week had those notices temporarily rescinded on Friday, the latest turn in the Trump administration's chaotic dismantling of the U.S.-funded media outlet. It was not clear how many VOA journalists and employees received the email. Those who received it still expect to be laid off — the email noted that the U.S. Agency for Global Media, VOA's parent agency, will be 'running another RIF in the near future' — but the timeline for when their jobs will now be terminated is now unclear. It's the latest development in a grueling series of back and forths between the embattled employees at the network and Kari Lake, the Trump adviser who has orchestrated the dismantling of VOA and USAGM's other global media networks. Critics have argued that Lake is leading a purge that is weakening the U.S.'s global standing by emboldened propaganda in countries that do not have a free press, including Iran and China. 'This email serves to inform you that the previously issued Reduction in Force notification dated June 20, 2025, is hereby rescinded,' read the email from the human resources department for the USAGM, which was obtained by POLITICO. Employees who initially received RIF notices had a separation date of Sept. 1, and now, there's no clear timeline of when the termination process will be completed. Lake disputed the change in status in a text to POLITICO, saying 'That is not true,' and that 'Employees have the option to work until their last day which I believe is around the beginning or middle of September. Employees who choose to work after receiving RIF notifications are working.' But after receiving a screenshot of the email, Lake said: 'The rescission of a subset of previously issued reduction in force letters allows employees to access and update their personnel files ahead of completion of the RIF which will be helpful as they pursue other employment,' adding that it 'is also part of union negotiations.' Paula Hickey, the president of VOA's American Federation of Government Employees Local chapter 1812, said that the move came after the union met with USAGM on Monday to 'discuss violations of the law and contract in regard to the RIF.' 'The recission is a result of the union's actions,' Hickey added. Employees noted several errors with their termination notices, including wrong dates of birth, wrong start dates and calculating severance payments incorrectly. Hickey said that the agency issued RIF notices without completing bargaining, which she says is a shift in status quo and violation of the federal law. Since a March executive order from President Donald Trump ordering the dismantling of several government-funded news agencies, some employees have sued the administration and Lake, arguing that its dismantling was unlawful. Employees with VOA's Persian-language service were abruptly called back to work after the war between Israel and Iran escalated — and then received RIF notices days after. 'They're failing at running an international media organization and now it seems they're failing at firing us too,' said former VOA White House bureau chief Patsy Widakuswara, one of the lead plaintiffs in the lawsuit against the Trump administration. 'In the meantime, more than 600 people are experiencing whiplash from their incompetence.'

FBI confirms hacker group behind Hawaiian Airlines attack
1 of 2 | A notorious hacker group is likely responsible for a recent cyberattack on Hawaiian Airlines that affected some of its IT systems, the FBI confirmed to CNN. File Photo by Bonnie Cash/UPI | License Photo June 28 (UPI) -- A notorious hacker group could reportedly be responsible for a recent cyberattack on Hawaiian Airlines that affected some of its IT systems. That incident and other cyberattacks "recently observed" by the FBI bear a resemblance to previous ones carried out by the Scattered Spider group, TechCrunch reported, citing a statement from the federal investigative agency. The airline confirmed the attack earlier this week but said neither its flights or passenger safety were affected. "As we navigate the ongoing event, we remain in contact with the appropriate experts and federal authorities," the airline said in its latest update. Scattered Spider is a group of English-speaking young adults and teens believed to be living in the United States and Britain. The group conducts large-scale phishing and ransomware operations in addition to other cyberattacks, usually against major corporations and their third-party IT contractors. The FBI confirmed the group's involvement in recent attacks, noting the airline industry remains vulnerable. "Anyone in the airline ecosystem, including trusted vendors and contractors, could be at risk," the FBI said in a statement to CNN. "Once inside (a victim's network), Scattered Spider actors steal sensitive data for extortion and often deploy ransomware." Earlier this month, a cyberattack targeting United Natural Foods Inc., caused a major disruption at Whole Foods. The Rhode-Island-based distributor is a major Whole Foods supplier, with the attack leading to empty grocery store shelves across the country. A week after the Whole Foods incident, international insurance company Aflac confirmed data and Social Security numbers of its clients were stolen by a hacking group. The company, based in Columbus, Ga., said the techniques used in the cyber intrusion closely resemble those used by Scattered Spider in previous hacks.

Letters to the Editor: The Social Security Fairness Act restored the benefits Americans worked for
To the editor: The Social Security Fairness Act does not give windfall benefits to government workers who did not pay into the system, as contributing writer Veronique de Rugy stated ('Social Security is headed for a cliff. When will voters care?,' June 26). It restores the amount of the monthly benefit the worker receives in their monthly payment (eligibility determined by the worker paying into Social Security for the required 40 quarters) that was cut because the worker also worked for a government entity long enough to draw a pension. I started working at 16 years of age and for the next 19 years, I had Social Security deductions taken from every paycheck. Like many working people, those deductions reduced my take-home pay, but we knew the money would be returned later via our monthly benefit upon retirement. When I applied for Social Security I was notified that due to the pension I was going to receive from my county employment, my monthly Social Security benefit was going to be cut by 50%. For the last nine years I received only half of the Social Security benefit I earned by contributing 19 years of deductions. Thanks to this legislation, which had bipartisan support, Americans are getting the benefits they worked for. Joy Rockport, Valley Glen .. To the editor: Before earning a clear credential in secondary English in 2002, I logged 25 years in the private sector. I give my heartfelt thanks to the Biden administration for recognizing that government workers deserve to benefit from their contributions. I sleep better knowing my retirement will be boosted by an extra $1,800 a month. It seems only fair. Melissa Mazzei, Los Angeles .. To the editor: Several questions arise: First, is it possible that this column exaggerates the peril? As a financial professional, I have witnessed many inaccurate estimates firsthand. Second, why is the role of income inequality neglected? The enormous layer of cream at the top that contributes nothing to the Social Security system is surely worth mentioning. Even a small increase to the Social Security taxable wage base would likely have a huge impact on the projected shortfall. Finally, the headline lays the blame at the feet of the voters. To her credit, de Rugy's column discusses congressional inaction. Much of the public is very busy, many working multiple gigs to pay their bills. Members of Congress are paid to legislate responsibly and to take courageous stands. I ask the author: Have you correctly identified the problem? Susan Wolfson, Glendale .. To the editor: According to my Social Security statement, if I am collecting $4,350 a month in Social Security today, my surviving spouse and minor children can collect up to $5,900 a month, or 36% more than what I am getting while alive. No wonder Social Security is headed for a cliff. Cap the survivor benefit to what the deceased was receiving and limit the duration. Andrew Ko, Glendale
