“By the end of 2025, 317,000 federal employees will be out of the government, according to the Office of Personnel Management. Tens of thousands were fired. Far more retired or resigned, out of fear they would lose their jobs if they stuck around. Others, say the working conditions became untenable”
Under Trump, 317,000 workers are out of the government. Here are 3 of their stories
Mass firings, buyouts and heightened uncertainty led to an exodus of federal workers in 2025. More than 300,000 employees will be out of the government by the end of December.

A lot of young, impressionable children. In my view, you would have Lee Greenwood or role models doing that. Not somebody like this.
