2025-03-07
Arrr, mateys! It be said that a scallywag crew of a few thousand Defense Department buccaneers be walkin' the plank, all in the name o' the Trump captain’s grand plan to slim down the ship! Aye, ‘tis a right merry tale of job loss on the high seas!
Arrr matey, gather ye round fer a tale o' woe from the high seas of bureaucracy! This week, a band o' 4,000 fine souls from the Department o' Defense be findin' themselves walkin’ the plank, as the Trump administration be settin' sail on a quest to trim the fat from the federal crew.Word from the crow's nest be that another 31,000 landlubber civilian scallywags be tossin' their hats into the sea, hopin' to abandon ship! But beware, some requests be denied, as they be exempt from the captain's axe. Aye, 11,000 have successfully made their escape—good luck to 'em!
The DOD, that mighty fortress of defense, be keepin' mum on the matter, while some probationary mateys at the Defense Logistics Agency be sent adrift, 100 in total. They claim it be all part of alignin' resources, but it sounds more like a tale spun by a three-legged parrot!
Rumors swirl 'round that dismissals be confined to those landlocked in administrative positions. The Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE fer short, be on a mission to slice through the clutter and save some doubloons. So, hoist yer sails and brace for more shenanigans on the high seas o’ politics, ye scallywags! Arrr!
