In his ruling, Alsup ordered OPM to rescind a January 20 memo and a February 14 email directing agencies to identify probationary employees who are not "mission-critical" and terminate them.

"Probationary employees are the lifeblood of our government. They come in at a low level and work their way up. That's how we renew ourselves," said Alsup, an appointee of Democratic former President Bill Clinton.

Here we go again. Paging the great CJ.

Guess he just missed what the SC did in regards to petty judges trying to usurp the constitutionally vested powers exclusive to the executive branch.

His very words are an assumption of executive authority, placing his authority above the elected office of president and the constitutional powers of that office.

And his citation of legal authority is?

US judge with delusions of grandeur thinks he can halt Trump administration's calls for mass firings at agencies, crowd laughs.

“”Probationary employees are the lifeblood of our government”

The last admin went on a hiring spree to load up on pro union newbees.

How can you fix anything if you can't change anything?

And his citation of legal authority is?

"The law is in his mouth" - hat-tip to King John.

I’m getting SO sick of these Black Robed, Corrupt , Leftist Judiciarchs.

And I wonder which one of his relatives or friends is amongst those who are fired.

OMG!

It’s Rapin’ Bill “judge” William Alsup of the Northern District of California [aka the New Supreme Court].

[cgbg]

The judge pulled this ruling out of his rear end.

It is so bad I really thought it was the Babylon Bee.

It does not even pass the laugh test.

Nobody cares what he thinks about probationary federal employees.

The clown thinks he is a leftist newspaper editorial writer.

They always look like globohomoeuroweenies.

The court has already ruled that the president can fire anyone he wants. See Biden v Spicer.

[Paladin2]

Didn’t Traitor Roberts go on record saying that ALL Federal Judges were as pure as the fresh driven snow?

[Governor Dinwiddie]

SCOTUS has to issue a blanket ruling covering all these nuisance cases. You can't keep playing whack-a-mole. That's the enemy's strategy, to tangle you up in nuisance rulings.

[linMcHlp]

THAT JUDGE IS OUT OF HIS/HER LANE AND LOST IN EXTRA-CONSTITUTIONAL SPACE.

BAN THAT JUDGE FROM USING ALL U.S. GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS, PROPERTIES, FORMS OF COMMUNICATIONS, AND TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS.

[Fledermaus]

Time for Congress to shut them down. It’s in their hands. They create the courts and control their pervue.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Another black-robed, RAT pipe bomb. Time to impeach this DemonRAT azho.
