Are these just announced layoffs, or actual people already out of work? Also, how many are layoffs unconnected to the election, i.e. are any of these due to the end of temporary situations or failed business models/competition? I think one of the “companies” on that list is the Anniston weapons depot, which is stopping work because they don’t have any more weapons to destroy. Another is RocketDyne which is downsizing because they lost the space race to Space-X.

Some of them are immediate, some are scheduled, a few are yes, but...
I tried to presort the wheat from the chaff, and only report hard numbers in the total, I didn’t even touch the closures column, as it is difficult to determine job losses vs reassignments.
Any input or insight you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
