Trump's Mass Federal Resignation: How Will It Affect YOU?

The Trump administration has offered buyouts to nearly all federal workers, creating major upheaval. Find out how this could impact government services you rely on, the economy, and the future of the federal workforce. We delve into the details of the 'deferred resignation' program, who is eligible, and what the potential consequences are. Are these buyouts a cost-cutting measure, or a move to reshape the government? We explore what this means for both federal employees and the American people. Stay informed about the potential changes and how they might affect your life. This video examines the recent changes and the potential widespread effects.
◦ The Trump administration is offering buyouts to federal employees who do not wish to return to in-person work.
◦ Employees who accept the offer will receive pay and benefits through September 30, 2025.
◦ The administration expects 5-10% of the workforce to resign, potentially impacting government services and costing around $100 billion.
◦ The buyout program excludes postal workers, military personnel, immigration officials, and some national security roles.
◦ The email sent to federal workers has the subject line "Fork in the Road", mirroring a message sent by Elon Musk to Twitter employees.
◦ The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) views this as a tactic to create a toxic work environment and get rid of civil servants.

We are 36 trillion in debt because of government spending. Current inflation is soo bad that each person must be gaining $1,000 month after all their bills just to keep up. We need Yuge spending cuts!

If you think this will fix it your wrong. Laying off the lowest paid federal staff is only going to create more debt.
