They’re never going to get paid. He’s going to leave them high and dry
My bet is they won’t get paid what’s been promised to them because that’s been the conman’s modus operandi since forever.
But in this case it’s not his money.
Except that’s why it actually matters. He controls his own finances, but Congress controls the government’s. If the continued pay they’re promising isn’t accounted for in legislation, bad advice from the president or Elon doesn’t force the government to pay
Not yet
Hold it it up in the justice system for the sake of efficienxy.
How many of those 75,000 are a few months from retirement anyway?
Of the handful of people I know of, most were retiring anyway. They’re basically getting 7 months of paid leave. I wished one person a happy retirement last week and then “welcome back” this week. They’re working until the end of February.
Of the one person I know that isn’t eligible for retirement, they were planning on leaving anyway due to circumstances in their family.
What I’m interested in is how many of those people will be back by October as contractors. I’ve seen it before where someone retires and then a few months later they’re back working in a similar job. Just because someone leaves gov services doesn’t mean their skill sets aren’t in demand.
Of the one person I know that isn’t eligible for retirement, they were planning on leaving anyway due to circumstances in their family.
That was going to be my second question- how many were not retiring, but were planning on leaving for other reasons? How many had a new job lined up before Trump even took office?
These idiots put no restrictions on this offer. And despite that, 75,000 is still far lower than the number of federal employees who retired per year in the past 10 years according to OPM.

So that means even plenty of people who would entirely benefit from this offer at no risk to themselves are telling Trump to go fuck himself.
wtf is up with that thumbnail image? Either a mid shop job or a weird ass image-gen on just the face. Just…why?
It looks like a baby who just pooped it’s diaper. I’m inclined to think it is a real photo.
It’s not that the face is unbelievable, it’s the weird, high definition of the details compared to the rest of the photo. If it was 2015, I’d confidently say they copied a better quality picture of his face over this one.
I dunno. It just looks like a photo taken with a high end digital camera to me.
Isn’t it just the thing that smartphones do these days where they slightly blur the background to make the person stand out more? Like you might do adjusting the focus, but faked.
Isn’t it just a regular shallow depth of field? You can see the piece of paper smoothly transition towards being in focus
You might be right. Looking close up the edges don’t stand out as being faked, I just didn’t look that close before. Though the arm on the right (his left arm) is full in focus and the box right next to it is very out of focus.
To be honest it’s been so long since I’ve seen a photo that wasn’t autocorrected up the wazoo that I can’t remember what things are supposed to look like anymore.
Maybe.
