Summary

Trump plans to sign an executive order further downsizing the federal workforce, limiting hiring to one new employee per four departures.

The order, aligned with Elon Musk’s cost-cutting efforts, could eliminate or merge agencies deemed nonessential.

A deferred resignation program has allegedly led to 65,000 departures, though its legality is under court review.

Federal workers and union leaders protested the cuts, citing job insecurity, public service concerns, disruptions to government functions.

    4 experienced people replaced with 1 new person?

    I’ve experienced this before…

    It doesn’t go well

      That’s the plan, though, for it to all go to shit to make it easy for them to just loot what’s left of the country and leave us as bad off as Russia was after the collapse of communism.

      Get ready to cry at the sight of literal children offering sexual favors for food.

      They are removing all roadblocks, and they absolutely want to be able to take advantage of young girls and boys. This helps them accomplish that. Just ask Gaetz and Trump.

      I haven’t. Is it like when Musk fired the entire charger team only to hire them back?
