Summary
Federal workers who voted for Trump in 2024 are facing unexpected job losses as the administration implements massive workforce cuts.
Michael Graugnard, an attorney advisor at USDA, was laid off three months into his role despite managerial assurances. While he supports “government efficiency,” he didn’t anticipate this implementation but doesn’t regret his vote.
Similarly, IRS veteran James Diaz criticizes the administration’s “chainsaw” approach to cuts. However, others like Ryleigh Cooper, who voted for Trump’s IVF promises, now regret their decision after losing her Forest Service job.
The layoffs are part of Trump and Musk’s plan that has terminated thousands of federal workers and convinced 77,000 others to resign.
The really gross part is this prick is patting himself on the back for being so high-minded and principled. He might feel even better about his choice now, if sacrifice is the measure of commitment to a cause.
“I may disagree with the leopard that’s eating my face, but there sure needs to be a lotta face eating and I can support that despite what I’m going through”, he said smugly, looking up from the boot he’s licking.
“Personally, I’da gone with Tabasco, but if they prefer to sprinkle Sriracha on my face before digging in, I have to respect their decision.”
