Judge orders Trump to Reinstate Probationary Workers Let Go in Mass Firings Across Multiple Agencies

[0311]

It would seem to me that the judge is demanding some sort of proof. The lawyers are not doing their job, if they are working placating the judge it is failing. I do not think any of this was well thought out.

“A federal judge on Thursday ordered six federal agencies to rehire thousands of workers with probationary status who had been fired as part of President Trump’s government-gutting initiative.

Ruling from the bench, Judge William H. Alsup of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California went further than a previous ruling. He found that the Trump administration’s firing of probationary workers had essentially been done unlawfully by fiat from the Office of Personnel Management, the government’s human resources arm. Only agencies themselves have broad hiring and firing powers, he said.

He directed the Treasury and the Veterans Affairs, Agriculture, Defense, Energy and Interior Departments to comply with his order and offer to reinstate any probationary employees who were improperly terminated. But he added that he was open to expanding his decision later to apply to other agencies where the extent of harms had not been as fully documented yet.”

Very good.

A loss for Trump is a victory for the rule of law and our democratic institutions.

It would seem to me...

You have no factual or rational basis for your position.

Judge Presiding as self appointed President carving out new territory by feeling that things not only need prohibiting but going even further-things already done must be undone because an unelected party feels so . One man appointed him and now another solo man runs USA and the voice of 75 million are forced into silence
Judicial totalitarian

WASHINGTON — A federal judge on Thursday ordered the Trump administration to reinstate tens of thousands of fired federal employees across six agencies, saying their terminations were “unlawful.”

Judge Orders Trump To Reinstate Thousands of Fired Employees At Six Agencies

Trump’s terminations of probationary workers at the VA, the Interior Department and other agencies were “unlawful,” ruled U.S. District Judge William Alsup.

U.S. District Judge William Alsup ordered the Trump administration to immediately reinstate all probationary employees it fired from the departments of Defense, Treasury, Agriculture, Energy, Interior and Veterans Affairs.

Alsup called the mass firings a “sham” effort by the Office of Personnel Management ― the human resources agency of the federal government ― to skirt laws in order to drastically reduce the size of the federal workforce.

Trump to judge: fuck off.

Since when did judges become presidents?

REMEMBER...Obama fired like 100 nuclear readiness workers because they supposedly ALL "cheated on an exam". (Yeah, BULL-FUCKING-SHIT, they did.)
