[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think many Feds are extremely naive.

Yes, if you have a union and you’re doing a fairly boring job, you’ll probably be fine. You could probably be covered under a lawsuit or protected by your higher ups.

But that’s unlikely. If you have a job that is at all public-facing or politically interesting or touches on policy, you are screwed. It is very easy for them to make your life miserable, hire a political into your job without actually firing you… you’ll just find yourself completely sidelined with nothing to do and everyone whispering behind your back that you’re incompetent or a traitor. Then you’ll find a new job because they’ve basically forced you out… and they win without facing a lawsuit or really any reprocussions at all.

This is exactly what happened to me during the last Trump admin. [/quote]

I saw exactly this happen at my agency under Trump.

I’m not naive enough to think it can’t happen to me. But any job has risks. Private sector companies have layoffs, nonprofits lose funding. All in all, fed gov remains relatively safe, even with this threat. [/quote]
