Yes. Genius.

Downsize the “non essential.” This is the way to do it.

The only thing I am disappointed in is I would have liked to have seen more pictures of the Puerto Rico 30 Democrat Party and that needs to be tweeted every hour.

If this article is true Trump will have the opportunity to lay the boom
on these mostly RAT voter Federal Workers.
That should catch ChuckU and Beligosi’s attention.

Has President Trump suckered Democrats and the Deep State into a trap that will enable a radical downsizing of the federal bureaucracy?

I certainly hope so.

I had been thinking Trump might be setting up a massive government cut with this. Only bring back what is necessary. Onr by one.

So a PATCO style firing is still possible. Good.

For now, I’ll believe it when I see it.

But I’ll do cartwheels across the lawn at almost 70 years of age if this comes true. Then I’ll plan an actual celebration, with the best wine and food I can find.

How many more times will Trump need to completely OWN the opposition before they realize he is always 4 moves ahead of them?

Hmmm .... whether “true” (Trump setting a trap) or not, it’s certainly leverage and that’s probably why this ‘senior official’ floated this little tidbit out there. If I was a Fed worker & thought Trump might actually do this & he’s certainly proved that he does have the brass to do something like this, I’d be SCREAMING at Nasty P./Schmucky to make a deal and fund the d@mn wall before I wasn’t just missing a paycheck, but a job!!

Tenure ranks ahead of performance.

If you have been a worthless employee for 30 years, you are safe.

If that should happen ...

... it'll be a good time to buy in Annandale and Gaithersburg.

The problem I see with this Theory is the bosses making the evaluations on their people are probably Hillary voters. If Trump declared every dept had to cut 10%, then somebody has to go, but I'd bet it would be the last remaining conservatives that are cut. Just taking a figure out of the air, I'll bet 80% of DC is Democrat and some of the remaining 20% is communist.

This sounds like one of those stories that Sean Hannity puts out 20 times a year like, The big Kaboom will come when so and so testifies or is appointed in 2 months. In 3 months, still nothing. There are a sizeable amount of people watch porn all day and have been caught and they still get a check. It's easy to catch them, they have been caught, and they will retire there and draw more money than most get working, as they buy their 2nd home in the Dominican Republic.

Just realized Q hasn’t hinted at this, so if it happens, Q is out of the loop.

Maybe I just missed it.

Please, Lord, make it so! And start with the three big Es: Education, energy and environment.

When agencies furlough employees for more than 30 calendar days or 22 discontinuous work days, they must use RIF procedures.

I hope President Trump will follow the letter of the law. The word used there is "must" as in "they must use RIF procedures". Time for RIFs in five days. I'd like to see about 90% of the 380,000 furloughed positions permanently eliminated. Best. President. Ever!

Next year, we need a 30-day shutdown that covers nonessential employees from the rest of the cabinet departments. RIF, Round 2, would be just as beautiful. This is about our children's money and our grandchildren's money, since we already put them over $20T in debt. It's time to slow or perhaps even stop the bleeding.

Doesn’t matter what the laws and policies say, if Trump does it, look for a Federal judge to come along and block it, whether or not it’s within the judge’s jurisdiction...

Do it! Laying them off will cut funding to the radical causes of the left. Eventually, the hardships will teach their descendants some conservative values.
