BREAKING — The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has just announced the closure of major regional offices in Philly, LA and Chicago, per email shared with me.

“5 alarm fire,” SEC employee tells me.

Full email text:

..GSA has now decided to end all federal leases goverment-wide where GSA can do so unilaterally and where the agency is not providing direct services to the public

As part of this decision, GSA recently informed us it has decided to teminate the building leases for the Los Angeles Regional Office (LARO) and the Philadelphia Regional Office (PLRO). GSA retains the sole authority to terminate the leases because they manage those leases on our behalf. To be clear, these lease terminations are not associated with any reorganization or reduction in force plan regarding SEC personnel, but rather apply solely to SEC space.

As part of the initiative described above, GSA also notified us they intend to terminate the lease for the Chicago Regional Office (CHRO). The SEC has responded to the Administration and pointed out that CHRO's lease terms are different iand do not allow for unilateral GSA termination without significant financial penalties. We will keep you posted as we learn more about GSA's decisions. The SEC will be working with GSA on the process for finding new space for these offices. We understand that GSA aims to have the space exited by the end of August 2025 for PLRO and CHRO, and the end of September 2025 for LARO. It is the SEC's intent that if new office locations are not ready by the time the GSA-initiated lease terminations take effect, then the affected SEC staff will be placed on full-time telework.

We will provide more information as we learn it.

Thank you.

@stux All we can do is keep fighting, resisting, protesting, calling members of Congress, run for every office imaginable, donate, anything and everything we can do to expose and beat them down

@stux It has to be. Keep fighting. The world, not just Americans.

@stux @GottaLaff
We rise up anyway. Threats of crackdowns and infiltrators are not new issues. We keep it legal and face whatever TF they think they are going to do. If they were smarter people, they would have gone slowly enough to keep MAGA on board. They are not smart people, so they are blowing it up and the entire country is going to be against them very soon.

@stux @GottaLaff Americans must turn out for 2026 elections in droves. We must vote for the person that will beat the republicans, we cannot indulge in protest votes. With the amount of money GOP has access to now we may not get where we need to be, but our numbers may wake up a few incumbents.

Europe can continue to stand up to trump, the meeting March 2 showed Ukraine is not alone, and trump needs constant reminders of that.

Slow trump and his minions down any way you can.

@stux @GottaLaff
I'd think they'd demolish SEC second, right after DOJ.

@stux @GottaLaff note the statement near the end “the affected SEC staff will be placed on full-time telework.” So trusk can fire them for not being in the office everyday?
