Trump promises and proposals tracking thread.

[FLVOL_79]

Here is the resignation offer sent out to Feds yesterday (the sh!tbag workers are freaking out):


During the first week of his administration, President Trump issued a number of directives concerning the federal workforce. Among those directives, the President required that employees return to in-person work, restored accountability for employees who have policy-making authority, restored accountability for senior career executives, and reformed the federal hiring process to focus on merit. As a result of the above orders, the reform of the federal workforce will be significant.

The reformed federal workforce will be built around four pillars:

1)​	Return to Office: The substantial majority of federal employees who have been working remotely since Covid will be required to return to their physical offices five days a week. Going forward, we also expect our physical offices to undergo meaningful consolidation and divestitures, potentially resulting in physical office relocations for a number of federal workers.
2)​	Performance culture: The federal workforce should be comprised of the best America has to offer. We will insist on excellence at every level — our performance standards will be updated to reward and promote those that exceed expectations and address in a fair and open way those who do not meet the high standards which the taxpayers of this country have a right to demand.
3)​	More streamlined and flexible workforce: While a few agencies and even branches of the military are likely to see increases in the size of their workforce, the majority of federal agencies are likely to be downsized through restructurings, realignments, and reductions in force. These actions are likely to include the use of furloughs and the reclassification to at-will status for a substantial number of federal employees.
4)​	Enhanced standards of conduct: The federal workforce should be comprised of employees who are reliable, loyal, trustworthy, and who strive for excellence in their daily work. Employees will be subject to enhanced standards of suitability and conduct as we move forward. Employees who engage in unlawful behavior or other misconduct will be prioritized for appropriate investigation and discipline, including termination.

Each of the pillars outlined above will be pursued in accordance with applicable law, consistent with your agency's policies, and to the extent permitted under relevant collective-bargaining agreements.

If you choose to remain in your current position, we thank you for your renewed focus on serving the American people to the best of your abilities and look forward to working together as part of an improved federal workforce. At this time, we cannot give you full assurance regarding the certainty of your position or agency but should your position be eliminated you will be treated with dignity and will be afforded the protections in place for such positions.

If you choose not to continue in your current role in the federal workforce, we thank you for your service to your country and you will be provided with a dignified, fair departure from the federal government utilizing a deferred resignation program. This program begins effective January 28 and is available to all federal employees until February 6. If you resign under this program, you will retain all pay and benefits regardless of your daily workload and will be exempted from all applicable in-person work requirements until September 30, 2025 (or earlier if you choose to accelerate your resignation for any reason). The details of this separation plan can be found below.

Whichever path you choose, we thank you for your service to The United States of America.

The federal employees I know are just ordinary working class Americans. Weird that you call them shitbags.

This honestly looks thread worthy in and of itself. Why bury it here?

Promise tracking thread. Maybe a "Federal Employment Reform" thread might be warrented..thats what this is trying to lay the basis for. I mean, isnt that what the left is always screaming about? Reforms? Here you go dipsh!ts.

Yall would be (or not) shocked at how many idiot federal employees couldnt understand this memo. Our dirtbags are freaking out because they now think if they dont resign by Feb 6th they are getting fired. I don't believe in God but damn, Trumps doing the lawds work in removing dead weight from the fed.

That is until I get canned obviously

I called the ones who are sh!tbags, sh!tbags. Not all feds. I'm a fed. The ones who rely on the unions saving their bacon to stay employed, them types. The majority of the 300 Feds I have oversight of are not sh!tbags.

You sound like my liberal Aunt when I pointed out a bunch of illegal immigrants in Florida and she said "I just see hard working Americans". Been a running joke now for 30 years.

Guess who creates all the inefficiency in the government? Guess who prevents/slows change? If you guess unions you win a prize!

We have air traffic systems running on Pentium II computers from the early 90's..Why? Because some unions like the 16bit color pallet.

The only benefit I saw of being in a union (I was in one once) was having a say in how our schedule was built. Other than that my dues went to protecting the worst employees and funding the unions bush league conventions in Branson.

Oh I get it. Yesterday I wrote an email for submission to a program office on an electronics test set that’s been in use for a decade stating A) your test methodology is wrong you’re not testing the correct functions B) your test set is wired wrong and I don’t think you are even testing the correct channel and C) your test set power load impedance is completely wrong and puts the unit under test in a marginally stable configuration. This was after a phone call about two weeks ago where they explained to me how my assertions were incorrect on how the unit under test functions. Oh by the way this is a circuit card I designed about 20 years ago

So the majority of the fairly large sample size of federal workers that you personally know also aren’t bad.

Sounding like a problem that has been exaggerated by a bunch of Gladys Karavitz types. Are you one of those?

My god man you must be old.

No. I'm not a chick.

Every job/career has its worthless workers. In the federal workforce you combine union representation with bureaucratic red tape and you do get a lot of people who can get away without doing their jobs and become dirtbags, probably more so than in the private sector. Why? No real repercussions. It takes forever to fire people. I've had two employees go AWOL for six months. It took me over a year to terminate them. One of them was in prison on federal assault charges.

Spoiler

They weren't good employees

"45. Revoke Joe Biden’s policies on “gender affirming care”—a process that includes giving kids puberty blockers, mutating their physical appearance, and ultimately performing surgery on minor children."

I think this can be Green-checked:

Having taken two years+ of "chemical castration" drugs, I am glad for this change. These drugs beat the hell out of your body and mess with your physical and emotional health. Willingly giving these to teens, who are already going through crazy body changes, just seems crazy to me (absent circumstances where they may be necessary to save or prolong life.)

(Disclaimer: I am not a Doctor. If your doctor recommends this course of treatment to you, please make a responsible choice. There are absolutely physical conditions where these drugs can save or prolong your life. Don't let my comments dissuade your from making the right decision for you. Similarly, if you have particularly strong emotional responses when taking these drugs, be sure to talk to your Dr. There may be other drugs that mitigate those side effects of these hormone blockers. Those side effects can be gradual, or they can come on very, very quickly. Guys especially, don't let pride get in the way of seeking help for detrimental emotional side effects.)

"We have 30,000 beds in Guantanamo to detain the worst criminal illegal aliens threatening the American people," he said. "Some of them are so bad we don't even trust the countries to hold them, because we don't want them coming back. So we're going to send them out to Guantanamo."

 

[walkenvol]

I’m confused why any large detaining facility is necessary. At the current pace of 500+ illegals ICE are finding daily, seems like they can be returned to their country of origin as quickly as they’ve found?

Is ICE somehow going to start finding thousands daily?
