Remember the Blazing Headlines of DOGE Meat Axe CUT’S?
The Body Counts?
Well?
The Results Have BEEN NOT what was advertised…
The actual Trump Departments and Agencies are now scurring to REHIRE and RECRUIT Replacements….
(A Lot ain’t coming back even if offered their jobs back)
DOGE has turned out to be a Public Relations Flop on Many levels….
And?
It’s Father and Supporter, Elon Musk, is on the OUTS with the President….
This is another example of how Trump’s irratic and chaotic actions turn to shit….
And some staff at the U.S. Agency for International Development, dismantled in the first days of the Trump administration by a gleeful Elon Musk and his cost-cutting team at the U.S. DOGE Service, checked their inboxes this month to find an unexpected offer: Would you consider returning — to work for the State Department?
Across the government, the Trump administration is scrambling to rehire many federal employees dismissed under DOGE’s staff-slashing initiatives after wiping out entire offices, in some cases imperiling key services such as weather forecasting and the drug approval process.
Since Musk left the White House last week, he and Trump have fallen out bitterly, sniping at each other in public over the cost of Trump’s sweeping tax legislation and government subsidies for Musk’s businesses. But even before that, the administration was working to undo some of DOGE’s highest-profile actions.
Trump officials are trying to recover not only people who were fired, but also thousands of experienced senior staffers who are opting for a voluntary exit as the administration rolls out a second resignation offer. Thousands more staff are returning in fits and starts as a conflicting patchwork of court decisions overturn some of Trump’s large-scale firings, especially his Valentine’s Day dismissal of all probationary workers, those with one or two years of government service and fewer job protections. A federal judge in April ordered the president to reinstate probationary workers dismissed from 20 federal agencies, although a few days later the Supreme Court — in a different case — halted another judge’s order to reinstate a smaller group.
Some fired federal employees, especially those at retirement age or who have since secured jobs in the private sector, are proving reluctant to return. So the administration is seeking work-arounds and stopgaps, including asking remaining staff to serve in new roles, work overtime or volunteer to fill vacancies, according to interviews with 18 federal workers across eight agencies and messages obtained by The Washington Post. A Post review found recent messy re-hirings at agencies including the Food and Drug Administration, the IRS, the State Department and the Department of Housing and Urban Development. In some cases, the government is posting new online job listings very similar to positions it recently vacated, a Post review of USAJobs found…
…
In April, when the Trump administration offered early retirement, the employee leaped at it and was soon placed on administrative leave.
A few days later, former colleagues reached out: The government was now looking to fill the person’s job again. Did they want back in?
“I was like, yep, nope, I’m not risking it again,” the employee said. “I’m gonna try to take the money and try to find something else.”…
MAGA types rejoice at Musk gone….
The festive mood Thursday night came after an hours-long public feud between Musk and Trump that captivated Washington and appeared to mark the dissolution of the two men’s bromance. Musk spent tens of millions to help elect Trump last year before heading up a controversial cost-cutting effort over the last five months known as the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. But Musk turned on Trump this week over the president’s massive deficit-busting tax and spending plan.
“We’re popping bottles tonight,” said Kassam, who had just set down his tin of caviar and pearl spoon before stepping outside for a smoke break.
So goes the sentiment at Butterworth’s, the French-inspired bistro on Capitol Hill that has become something of a MAGA clubhouse in Trump’s second term. Kassam is one of the investors. And “MAGA” — Make America Great Again — is the operative adjective here. Over plates of lamb tartare and generous pours of Côtes du Rhône — perhaps the only liberal thing here — diners said their loyalties would be to Trump in the high-profile breakup.
“This is a lesson the MAGA right needed to learn right now,” he continued. The establishment Republican Party had already gone through something similar, Kassam said, when the tea party “got bought out by the Kochs,” referring to two wealthy brothers who funded traditionalist conservative causes…..
I’m waiting for Republicans to start saying that being in the Epstein Files is “no big deal”.
Coming Scott….
He, he, he…..
Trump Side Walk Act?
