Stiffing workers is the game.
Trump’s “deal” to millions of fed workers to take a payout or be terminated has a CLAUSE waiving the right to sue the gov if it fails to honor the “deal.”
Trump has no authority to grant pay.

America? I think you were being robbed right in front of your eyes.
U.S. Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL):
“We were denied access to the Treasury Bldg. We will enter because we need to provide oversight to Elon Musk and his team. We don't know what they are doing behind these closed doors.”
No one elected Elon, and our Congress Democrats are denied entry? Seriously?
