In fed govt, whenever you get a new position, even within your same office, yoy are on a 1 to 2 year probation. So you can have a great employee with 25 yrs experience who just took a supervisory position, and they be on probation. And most probationary employees in all agencies have been fires.
Why do we have to pretend the firings are about waste and fraud..be honest, you won election stating you were going to shrink the Federal government..What did republican Voters think that meant.. THIS is what you WANTED. Enjoy the Carnage
Hard disagree. What matters where we go from here. This is beyond a partisan problem. We need to set our differences aside and look forward to save what's left of our democracy.
The only surprise about these mass firings might be Musk at the helm. The plan was in writing before the election. Trump always demanded blind loyalty; he tried to eliminate civil servants his first term. Those who voted for him bear culpability.
They are not trying to save money or make things more efficient. They're sowing chaos to justify eventual privatization of currently government services, or to discontinue agencies that regulate businesses, and as a bonus they're making disgruntled gov't employees ripe for picking by Russian intel.
Can we also talk about how it is IMPOSSIBLE for a normal person to even submit an application for the Park Service?? I want a feature story on how they got jobs in the first place? Seriously people would do these jobs for min wage but we can't freaking apply!
You can apply for National Park jobs, when they are available, at https://USAJOBS.gov and Park Rangers do not make very much money. I am not really sure what you are talking about.
Only one advice: sue the government for unlawful dismissal. It is sooooo blatantly obvious none of these people were fired for bad performance it will make any ambulance chasing lawyer turn to unlawful firing law.
If you are wondering why there are those who are upset about trump's reemergence in the oval
And don't see what is happening to our Democracy remember this.... People come here for a better life. People flee countries who are led by dictators. Which do you want?
This is the closest we’ve been in my lifetime to authoritarianism. I, like most other Americans, would have never predicted this possible 10 years ago. I’m deeply disappointed in most of my fellow Americans.
My understanding is the people who either voted against him or didn’t vote outnumber those who voted for him. Though I’ve also heard some recent credible allegations of vote tampering, meaning your statement could also be true.
The US has been in the legal phase of fascism for more than 10 years. Heritage destroys from within for Russia. Regular old detached people just didn't know.
The actions of this *administration*
- if you can call it that, are irresponsibility and cruelty made visible. I hope the red hats are feeling some profound remorse. But I doubt it.
I pray they get their jobs back. We need all the employees fired in the past few weeks back in our parks and in critical
agencies across the country. Their salaries were just to be used for tax cuts for billionaires. Insane!

If a judge reversed the action it’s because the law was not followed.
