When Mass Layoff of Federal Employees Starts, Who Should be Among the First to Go?


WASHINGTON, Oct 5 (Reuters) - The Trump administration will start mass layoffs of federal workers if President Donald Trump decides negotiations with congressional Democrats to end a partial government shutdown are "absolutely going nowhere," a senior White House official said on Sunday.

As the shutdown entered its fifth day, White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett told CNN's "State of the Union" program he still saw a chance that Democrats would back down, averting a costly shutdown and federal employee layoffs that have been threatened by White House budget director Russell Vought.


Asking myself this question, first people who come to mind are the federal employees who worked in USAID, when that sub-agency was spending like drunken sailors who had just marched in a pride parade. Those who were working for USAID either eagerly particpated in the givaway, went along with it because they have no ethics, or had no idea it was going on because they were "working remotely."

That's my idea, what's yours?
The Federal Government is the largest employer in the US if there are layoffs they need to be the permanent kind.
 
The loss of billions in soybean sales to foreign markets due to Trump's incompetence as a negotiator means that we, the taxpayers, will have to provide ten billion dollars to the farmers. Trump is such a douche.
$10B subsidy (cost) against $200B in Tariffs (revenue).

DOGE
 
Fire these do nothing remote workers and 1/3 none essential. AI can replace them easily.
 
Not only FED employees but since they are "too good" to actually do work (not get hands dirty), they hire out millions of "contractors" at ungodly cost tp clean toilets, enter data etc.

The GOVT can work from home doing nothing but making sure contractors do the actual work for them. We have up to 24 million supervisors.

An exaggeration of course but not all wrong.

Let DOGE cut the force or kill the contracts too.
 
Hand over? I keep more of my paycheck under Trump.

Also, a subsidy to a farmer is an investment compared to welfare to able-bodied persons who remain on subsidy - costs taxpayers more.
I bet you wish you ran a company that could not sell its products because of the actions of one man. You are a MAGAT idiot.

Are leftists just stupid or can't think?

You want higher pay for American workers but support foreign countries taking advantage of America.
 
Globalism is the future.
