Layoffs begin for tens of thousands of federal workers

[BOP]

"From the Department of Education to Health and Human Services to Veterans Affairs, workers were laid off across at least a dozen federal departments and agencies by order of the Trump administration."

Or are they?

This sure looks like the pattern that follows the "more feds/fewer contractors - fewer feds/more contractors" cycle that comes around every 4 or more years, give or take.

Let the DC downsizing begin.

There's a bill in Congress to make DC a ward of the country like it's supposed to be and not have Mayors and City Councils to steal all the money and go get drunk. That's another thing Democrats have let get out of control.

I wonder how long those "laid off" will continue to get paid for, right now they are getting paid leave.
