At the National Institutes of Health, six directors — from institutes focused on infectious disease, child health, nursing research and the human genome — are leaving or being forced out.
At the Federal Aviation Administration, nearly a dozen top leaders, including the chief air traffic officer, are retiring early.
And at the Treasury Department, more than 200 experienced managers and highly skilled technical experts who help run the government’s financial systems chose to accept the Trump administration’s resignation offer earlier this year, according to a staffer and documents obtained by The Washington Post.
Across the federal government, a push for early retirement and voluntary separation is fueling a voluntary exodus of experienced, knowledgeable staffers unlike anything in living memory, according to interviews with 18 employees across 10 agencies and records reviewed by The Post. Other leaders with decades of service are being dismissed as the administration eliminates full offices or divisions at a time.
The first resignation offer, sent in January, saw 75,000 workers across government agree to quit and keep drawing pay through September, the administration has said. But a second round, rolling out agency by agency through the spring, is seeing a sustained, swelling uptick that will dwarf the first, potentially climbing into the hundreds of thousands, the employees and the records show.
The Post could not determine the exact number of second-round resignations, which is tightly held within each agency. But the employees and the records suggest that disproportionately older, more senior and experienced employees are heading for the exit — in part because they fear being fired or having their positions reclassified as political, at-will jobs under a new Trump program, federal workers said in interviews.

Winning
These ‘experts’ are ‘fleeing’ before their incompetence is discovered
So they shouldn't be surprised to be losing their jobs.
Expert grifters.
The DC liberal beltway bubble has burst?
Yep. They forgot to put “experts” in quotes.🤣
The leftist Washington Post says this like it’s a bad thing. The Post is wrong (or lying) AGAIN.
I suspect the real, hard working, honest experts aren’t fleeing.
The progressive fraud of “government experts.”
“EXPERTS” ??? MY BEHIND.
THEY ARE :”SELF APPOINTED” EXPERTS.
NOT WORTH A SLICE OF STALE BREAD
Cry me a river....
THE EXPERTS AT THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT WERE SENDING OUT CHECKS THAT HAD NO CODING AS TO WHAT THEY WERE PAYING FOR:
PROGRAMS THAT WERE VOTED FOR 20 +++YEARS AGO & HAD RUN OUT THEIR FUNCTIION WERE STILL GETTING CHECKS.
I DO NOT CALL THAT “EXPERTS”.
IF I HAVE paid the last payment on my mortgage-—I STOP SENDING CHECKS,
GOOD RIDDANCE!
The “experts” that promoted the decline of American’s health? Those “experts?”
“Trump’s actions are pushing thousands of experts to flee government”
Thank God for that!
THOSE EXPERTS:
IF THEY TOOK THE BUYOUT: TO leave & COLLECT PAY UNTIL SEPT 30-—— THEY ARE STILL TECHNICALLY EMPLOYED.
MUSK HAS FOUND OVER 100,000 OF THESE “EXPERT EMPLOYEES” also FILED FOR UNEMPLOYMENT.
THAT IS OUTRIGHT FRAUD.
MAYBE FRAUD IS WHAT THEY ARE “EXPERT” AT.
Not a problem at all! I’ve personally known many “experts” over the years who were absolute IDIOTS concerning practically EVERYTHING outside of their chosen profession.
Dont forget all those assholes working on Weaponizing Viruses and Gain of Function Research type things. Those are the weak links in society.
