This is a good question. Reuters reports Trump admin has hired 50,000 workers, primarily in immigration enforcement.
For context, that's equivalent to the total number of job losses in Health & Human Services, Veterans Affairs, USAID and Interior COMBINED, per the Partnership for Public Service

We had a moment of unity in the elections last week, a momentum that Dems could never have dreamed of, and then they turned their backs on all the voters that came out in support—to protect our democracy, our healthcare, and our neighbors. This is a colossal failure of the Democratic leadership.

FBI took a great number of PUBLIC investigative steps in September 2022, subpoenaed a bunch of things in those two months, and did first privilege-waived interviews.

And holy hell people, if DOJ seized two key phones and subpoenaed dozens of people in September 2022, how damaging was the same pre-2022 hold?

My latest is about the latest revelations on the failed prosecution of Donald Trump, and why you should blame Merrick Garland more than the Supreme Court.

By proceeding with the demolition of the White House East Wing before seeking approval from federal agencies for a new ballroom, President Donald Trump forced the issue. It's a strategy known as "stake-driving."

The reason Trump illegally used an anonymous billionaire to pay soldiers during the Epstein Shutdown is because he's going to need troops for the Insurrection Act and martial law.

PS/ And yes, I'm aware of concerns that much of the project is a cover for reinforcing an existing presidential bunker Trump believes he might have need for after declaring martial law—but as I haven't looked into that at all yet, I'm not considering it here. Nor possible placement of longterm bugs.
