I (mid career scientist) know many mid career scientist that have worked for the federal govt for a decade or more and are absolutely burnt out. Vought's goal was to traumatize federal workers and he succeeded. He and Trump/Musk have decimated OUR public wealth in destroying our fed workforce.

Trump is shutting down Job Corps—kicking vulnerable young people out of housing, job training, and education programs with zero plan. Don’t tell me this man gives a damn about the working class when he’s gutting the very programs that help folks get on their feet.
