[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lets say (hypothetically) this ruling is not overturned.  What would it mean for the already riffed?[/quote]

If the ruling is not overturned, it means Congress would need to include language in one of their upcoming bills that blesses the reorganizations.  That might be easier said than done given that all members of Congress don't want the blowback from this policy, which so far is quite unpopular around the country.[/quote]

It is pretty popular outside of DC.[/quote]

You obviously live in DC. Nope, people in red states found out their relatives working at SSA or the VA or DOD contracts (fellow Trump voters even) were laid off by their savior. Others are too old to use DOGE's internet/app based SSA systems and are pissed the Gen Z DOGE kids took away phone applications now requiring the elderly go in person and wait 4 hrs+. Just wait until DOGE cuts SSA field offices.[/quote]

I don't think you know many people located outside if this area

The cuts are popular.[/quote]

I agree. Cuts are very popular. There’s a whole segment of America that’s blue collar or service sector that’s thrilled when white collar people lose their jobs. In my opinion their anger should be with the ceos who are making $$$ and not feds making 85k on average but all they see is income inequality. The richest fed makes like 250k? And those are the very top level ones. The majority, per doge, make 85k on average. [/quote]

Depends what you mean by popular. Blue collar people were cheering this on the first week when DOGE did their WrestleMania entrance/social media campaign. But now they are losing their small businesses to tariffs and credit cards maxed due to prices. Fed employees are not top of their list anymore except for the chem trails MAGA base [/quote]
