Summary
The Trump administration is conducting mass firings of federal employees, citing “poor performance” and “misalignment with needs.”
Critics, including former officials and labor attorneys, argue the dismissals are unlawful and could result in significant financial liabilities for the government.
A federal judge denied unions’ attempts to block the firings. Many affected employees claim strong performance records and face severe personal and financial consequences.

Im here for it, let’s tax those billionaires out of existence.
