The Trump administration fired thousands of workers across several government agencies after the deadline for employees to accept a buyout had passed.
Folks, you could’ve taken the buyout that was offered. But you didn’t, and that was really very foolish. Oh I’m sure that you will collectively file suit, but I’m not sure how you could win. Trump is the chief executive.
Whether you like it or not, Trump is in charge. And he is an executive and can fire people under him. They chose… Poorly.
The cuts are in addition to the terminations of more than 1,000 employees at the Department of Veterans Affairs, firings at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and layoffs at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM).
