Federal Judge Allows Trump Admin To Continue Mass Layoffs Of Federal Workers \ stacker news ~Politics_And

A federal judge on Feb. 20 declined to block for now downsizing efforts by the Trump administration, including mass firings and buyout programs.

“Federal district judges are duty-bound to decide legal issues based on even-handed application of law and precedent—no matter the identity of the litigants or, regrettably at times, the consequences of their rulings for average people,” U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper wrote in his ruling.

Unions representing hundreds of thousands of federal workers had filed a lawsuit against President Donald Trump and the heads of several government agencies, saying they were overstepping the executive branch’s authority.

The culling of the herd continues. I hope it does not get as bad as chickens and eggs, though. The federal herd/flock still needs some more stiff culling, a lot more. Perhaps even a 50% cut in the military!!!

Now that they've stopped cutting checks to all the terrorists we've been fighting, there won't be much use for our military. A 50% cut is entirely reasonable.

I like the idea if and only if Trump can make deals with China and Russia to do the same with verifications going forward. Perhaps the whole world can look forward to some years of peace and quiet in this new Age of Aquarius. Everyone knows we need it for a change.
