Trump is offering all federal workers a buyout with seven months’ pay to shrink the government—but that’s not the whole story. Reports reveal some employees are being pressured to resign or face termination under the guise of organizational restructuring. In short: take the buyout or be fired.

Workers and not to take the buy out.
This is a crisis, and will become even more chaotic and deadly.
This is a way to force ppl to quit, NOT buy them out. It’s the purge promised in Project 2025.
It’s just a promise to leave
National Strike!
They did NOT get paid.
Either way, we the people are harmed... Who will do the work?
Or is intent, no one? So we'll have no services.. NO GOVERNMENT!
Buncha badasses is what yall are. ❤️❤️❤️
We need the brutal truth, not some way to say it that doesn't make u a target. We are all targets now.
Off.
Service workers.. period
Good luck America here we go
Feds are being offered 7mo pay as a bribe to relinquish their right to sue for civil rights infringement and wrongful termination.
They like shutdowns. Let's give them a shutdown they'll never forget.
The "buyout" is against protocol and, very likely, a plethora of standing laws; it won't have any force.
An empty federal government won't last a day.
Congress will get incessant calls and complaints. Workers will return after the day off.
typically it's lost when resigning 😬

The con is simple, yet profound,
Push the skilled out, bring the clowns.
Out with knowledge, in with fools,
Government run by partisan tools.
By the way, where in the hell is this money coming from?
Unilateral implementation without such approval may face legal challenges.
OPM acts as a regulator and reviewer for early retirement & buyout programs but cannot unilaterally impose them across agencies without specific requests or legislative authorization.
Again, where is the authority for this offer??
Plus, admin leave still needs to be accounted for.
If you can't apply for unemployment, the rates won't rise.
... these laws dont mean shit. Management finds a way.

I am not raising my blood pressure for this dumbass or the majority of people who voted for all these things. So, Oh well.
Whatever reasonable people should've done more of in Weimar Germany do it now.

Doesn't that just suck.
Or they would be paid nothing
Fear will grip all aspects

There was never an enabling statute passed for DOGE.

Once it's completed, either those offices will be closed down, or staffing refilled with loyal puppets.

Hmmm, legal or class action suit?
BTW, they lose medical insurance/benefits when they lose their job!!!
Reddit users are pointing out that some of the verbiage is the same as a similar letter to Twitter employees. They didn't get paid either.
