We could use a few less folks around. 5% less folks would make traffic better and everything less dense.

I don’t think Texas flood victims want 5% less FEMA help so that you can have 5% better traffic in the DMV.

Please google “less vs. fewer”.

I don't know anyone who work for the Fed, but I sympathize with you all. Some Americans who work in the private sector have a distinct hatred for fed workers. I think the abuse many of us take from the private sector has turned some us into haters who rejoice at seeing people who once had a stable career kicked to the curb like them.

It has to follow the law. Which means the layoffs happen then lawsuits are filed. Once that's done and it goes through appeals the SCOTUS will say that the provision in the union contract limiting the President's power to fire people is illegal but that the rest of the contract provisions weren't being decided on.

By the time the court makes this ruling it will be a couple of years from now and everyone laid off will have new work anyway. It isn't possible reinstate hundreds of thousands of people in 2027 or 2028 that were laid off in 2025 even if SCOTUS ruled in the favor of feds. Also, not all feds have union contracts and not all contracts are the same for those that do have them.

At best we'll see people on extended admin leave while lower courts make a decision. Extended admin leave will, of course, be ruled unlawful by SCOTUS in a few months based on an """emergency""" request.


No one is getting another job

Trump is crashing the economy unemployment will sky rocket


Yep- this will get worse before it gets better. MAGA has to have trouble putting food on the table and get worried about losing their home, ability to make car payments, afford private school, pay off medical bills, etc. but I’m not totally confident that would change their tune.

Their family would be hungry, their homes would go into foreclosure, and they’d insist like most cult members that suffering is necessary for salvation— in this case, saving America from Communism.


Not communism, liberalism.
