At least some of these firings appear to be flatly illegal, in direct violation of federal laws that protect non-political career staff. Just one week in, Trump is mounting a full-on assault against our civil service. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/01...

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
