If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

We are all about lazy weekends around here (at least that is what the dogs think). I wish you all a good weekend and that you can find some good things in your day even though times are tough.

Deportation flights never stopped. The Biden Admin deported about 1 million people per year. Republicans never talked about that because it didn’t fit their narrative, and Democrats never talked about it because they feared it would anger part of their base. So ignorance ruled.

If you threatened to deport a bishop because they advocated for mercy, you’re not a follower of Jesus Christ.

And those who warned America about it were right.

Trump just revoked the Equal Employment Opportunity executive order of 1965, rolling back 60 years of progress on civil rights.
The order had prohibited employment discrimination in federal hiring based on race, religion, and gender.

Today, take time for yourself. Go for a walk, read a book, do something that allows you to be creative, spend time with those you love, and take a deep breath. Today and many days in the future may be difficult, but we are resilient.
