DOJ Dismantles FBI Election Interference Unit: Cover-Up or Legitimate Action?
The Trump administration plans widespread federal layoffs, beginning soon after a February 6th deadline for employees to accept a deferred resignation offer. This offer allows voluntary departure with pay through September 30th, but has been met with strong union opposition and a subsequent lawsuit. While OPM is proceeding with the plan, threatening job loss for non-participants, they have added an early retirement incentive for eligible older workers. The layoffs, excluding postal workers, military, and certain other personnel, could affect a significant portion of the approximately 2.4 million federal employees.
