About 275,000 federal employees have been fired so far. 75,000 of those employees took the deferred resignation offer and *hopefully* will receive pay and benefits through 09/30/2025 (There isn't any funding set aside for the buyouts). This is a particularly sad story.

Elon Musk is doing a coup. Full Stop. This isn't some reforming of the treasury department. Democrats will do nothing substantial. There is so little media coverage about this. youtu.be/UBmFx5rUglA?...

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad.
There’s not.

The Trump Administration’s whole vibe is “well I lost my job and we got a foreclosure notice, better get a Punisher t-shirt.”
