Where is the money going to come from to pay out each employee's claim for lost wages, lost benefits, emotional distress, attorney's fees, punitive damages, etc.
Yikes.
Are these lawsuits being filed now?
No one has been fired yet. No lost wages.
No these things are not protected. At least the agency is free to eliminate these functions. There is no cause of action.
Moreover the rights of federal employees are limited in suits.
I’m sure the folks at DOJ would like a word.

And this was intentional and malicious disclosure. No defense against that.

BS. Feds are protected from politically motivated or arbitrary dismissal. That’s why Elon is offering this sketchy “retirement” offer and trying to make people resign.
So. Yeah. The big efficiency move is paying Feds to stay at home.

Well, sounds like layoffs are coming (they say because not enough federal workers have opted for the resignation “offer”).

All I know is when someone's wrongful termination lawsuit prevails and it's in the news, the award is usually in the millions.

Per WAPO, there is an overall DEI lawsuit filed yesterday on behalf of government employees, universities and others likely to be impacted.

I think they’re on administrative leave for the time-being and not terminated yet, if I recall correctly. I’m sure people are consulting with attorneys and considering individual legal options based on their overall situation and how the laws apply.
