I heard from quite a few federal employees as the OPM deferred resignation offer deadline hits. It's probably illegal, probably won't work, and is still not really clear in its mechanics anyway. Very, very few of them are even considering it.

I know pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t matter anymore, but if there’s one person I wouldn’t want to be the judge of who goes into locker rooms, it would be the man who openly boasted about walking into dressing rooms of underage girls
