Summary
Federal workers condemned a Trump administration email urging mass resignations, calling it a coercive and legally dubious move influenced by Elon Muskās cost-cutting approach.
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) offered ādeferred resignationsā while warning remaining employees of potential layoffs.
Critics, including unions and Democratic lawmakers, warned of widespread disruption to essential services.
The emailās phrasing echoed Muskās past layoffs at Twitter, raising concerns about the administrationās intentions.
Senator Tim Kaine urged workers not to accept the offer, citing Trumpās history of broken promises.
They didnāt send it to the secret service or the boarder patrol or ICE. I think also the post office didnāt get the letter.
I wish there was some shaudenfruede to be had, but there is none.
