President Trump on Friday said that career government employees working on policy matters for the administration will be reclassified "Schedule Policy/Career," – or at will employees – and will be fired if they don’t adhere to his agenda.

"Following my Day One Executive Order, the Office of Personnel Management will be issuing new Civil Service Regulations for career government employees," the president wrote on Truth Social Friday afternoon.

He added, "Moving forward, career government employees, working on policy matters, will be classified as ‘Schedule Policy/Career,’ and will be held to the highest standards of conduct and performance."

This comes as the Trump administration continues to fire federal employees in an effort to shrink the government.

I would recommend that anyone "re-classified" like this ALSO be offered the chance to resign with a generous "severance package".

Yes, it will cost a little to dangle that carrot in front of them.
But those taking advantage are most likely to be leftist and blue-leaners who would probably do their best to thwart Mr. Trump's agenda in any case.
