Another step in 2025 plan. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;project2025admin.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;project2025admin.com</a><p>The only one they will not implement is the phasing out of H1B due to Musk.

It&#x27;s not a buyout, it&#x27;s basically &quot;you can continue teleworking as long as you agree to resign on September 30th, otherwise you have to attend work in person&quot;. Worse deal IMO.

Trump&#x27;s buyout offer to US government workers is not for government efficiency reasons it&#x27;s for some far more sinister(Project 2025) reasons to inject that ideology into all levels of the US bureaucracy. It&#x27;s an ideological purge pure and simple to inject Project 2025 ideologues at all the levels of the US Government Bureaucracy! This is a pure power grab with Implications for everyone in the US and with implications that will far outlive Trump&#x27;s time in office!

&quot;... who don&#x27;t want to return to the office.&quot; The headline leaves that out. it will be interesting to see how that plays out.<p>On September 2021, we went back to our pre-COVID schedule of no more than two telework days per week. I don&#x27;t know of anyone who complained. The pandemic was pretty much over; so, let&#x27;s get back to normal.<p>We got an email with the directive yesterday, saying we&#x27;d be complying within 30 days. Idon&#x27;t know that we&#x27;ll lose anyone over one to two days per week. i do know people in other agencies who have not been back to the office and it will be interesting to see what they do.

They&#x27;ve overplayed their hand and are now forced to buy people out to deliver on their objective. If they could just fire them, they would, but they can&#x27;t.

Musk applying the Twitter strategy to the Federal Government. Seeing how this will play out will be very interesting.

I was just thinking about how many Chesterton&#x27;s fences Trump is breaking right now.
