The Trump administration is planning widespread layoffs among the federal workforce soon, leaving employees who don’t accept its deferred resignation offer at risk of losing their jobs, two Trump administration officials told CNN.

Summary

Trump is preparing mass layoffs for federal workers who decline its voluntary resignation offer, “Fork in the Road,” which guarantees pay through September 30 but requires workers to waive legal rights.

Over 20,000 employees have accepted, but unions argue the offer is coercive and legally dubious, filing a lawsuit to halt the February 6 deadline.

The administration warns holdouts could lose their jobs as part of Trump and Elon Musk’s plan to downsize government.

Critics say the policy mirrors Musk’s mass firings at X.

    I’m for one solid in things… but yeah friends, family, I can do without all that.

    Job, House, and of course citizen status… not so easily for me. especially in my case as I’m not legally married to my GF, and have an 18 year old non biological son that’s also not legally connected to me or my wife in any way.
