Firing of USAID Employees Is a Go!

Courthouse News reports that a Federal judge cleared the way to mass dismiss USAID employees. Of all the agencies, USAID’s crimes are among the worst. They are unethical and inefficient if they aren’t criminal under the law. They wantonly waste tax dollars and send billions to terrorist groups. Didn’t one employee notice and object?

Some of the donations from USAID are worthy, and Sec. Rubio promised to continue them with 611 workers and fire about 2,000.

Of course people are concerned about losing their jobs, but if those jobs are not needed or cause harm, they must end!

U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointee, lifted a temporary restraining order that protected over 2,000 USAID employees from termination.

He denied a union coalition of U.S. Agency for International Development employees’ request to block the Trump administration’s effort to dismantle the humanitarian aid agency.

U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, a Donald Trump appointee, wrote in the 26-page opinion that he could only rule on the union’s employment claims because USAID was “still standing.” Thus, any harm they would suffer from mass terminations could be addressed via monetary damages.

The unions claim the Trump administration’s 90-day foreign assistance pause and terminations at USAID would result in “catastrophic humanitarian consequences.” Further, the efforts would seriously harm the United States’ political and contractual relationships with allies and on-the-ground organizations.

In its opposition, the government argued that a block of its handling of USAID would cause harms of their own, warning that the nation’s “foreign aid industry” was not aligned with American interests and antithetical to American values and to world peace.

[What a holy crock!]

“Weighing plaintiffs’ assertions on these questions against the government’s is like comparing apples to oranges,” Nichols wrote. “Where one side claims that USAID’s operations are essential to human flourishing and the other side claims they are presently at odds with it, it is simply not possible for the court to conclude, as a matter of law or equity, that the public interest favors or disfavors an injunction.”

However, Nichols said the unions’ constitutional and Administrative Procedure Act claims challenging USAID’s dismantling could find success in the long run. Still, for now he could only rule on the employment claims.

Trump Can Fire the Employees Sending Our Money to Terrorists

Nichols previously granted the union’s request to block a midnight deadline on Feb. 7 that would have resulted in 2,014 USAID employees being placed on administrative leave — joining 2,140 others already on leave. He granted another weeklong extension on Feb. 13.
Friday’s order opens the door for Deputy Administrator of USAID Peter Marocco to lay off those 2,014 USAID employees, leaving approximately 611 staff members the administration deemed essential.

Nichols was concerned that the sudden placements would result in serious risks for the over 1,400 USAID employees stationed overseas, losing access to vital security systems such as the SAFE Alert system, two-way radios and GPS-enabled panic buttons.

Since issuing the temporary restraining order, Marocco filed several declarations reassuring Nichols that any overseas employee placed on leave would retain access to security systems.

Nichols found the declarations satisfactory and noted that any resulting harms would be financial and could be redressed via damages. He added that the declarations had convinced him the unions’ “initial assertions of harm were overstated.

Government workers are Stupid. If they had brains they would “all unite” and walk out shutting the Entire Nation , and everything in it, DOWN, until YOU throw Trump out of Office. EEEH … Lemmings! OFF with their Heads!

I bet Trump would not last 20-minutes if the lemmings could organize a proper defense for themselves!

Theyd 302 Trump and Remove Him from Office. Republicans and Democrats would Agree! You MAGA people would too , as you watch your 401k and property values turn to JUNK! US Credit would also be JUNKED if such a thing were to Happen!
So ... You
re Playing with Fire. I bet none of you are even cognizant of the Danger! You think this is all fun and games.

Nevertheless,
Trump will only scratch the Surface, and musk is already worried about being killed, ( Admitted this on Joe Rogan Show, I think) so they wont go much further.

Problem for you, what will you do when BIDEN, on Steroids, Comes?
Youre causing it to happen. Youre your own worst enemies, Mankind. I am trying to Escape you; because you`re all like drowning victims trying to take everyone down with them or punching people trying to help.

THIS GUY got all of you “Responding to Him!” Think abou that, if you can? You were all “antisocial and boring” before and now you`re united in a common cause.

And, you should really pay attention to what I wrote; because it has a strong possibility of happening at some point.

Why would you say something like that? You stereotype all government workers as they are losing jobs? We must cut government, but that doesn’t mean we don’t feel for workers. Maybe you should find another board for these rants.

Because they do not fight back. People have to learn to take care of themselves. Government cannot be their Mommy. The Workers will learn from the Tough Medicine. Then … Perhaps, they`ll get some dignity and unite earning themselves a payraise. I did it all my life. If You do not fight, then you lose.

And, stop with the Glee Club. IF you do not like opinions, then perhaps, you should close your site off to public comments, then you can be the opinion police.

I am the only one here getting responses. IF I leave your board dies.

Because I am Free to say that; besides it was mostly satirical but none of you could understand, naturally.
Why are you so controlling?
Why are you all so Communist? Echo-Chambers are for FOOLS!

You do not attack the posters who used profantiy against me; but you come and attack me! Do you know how Intellectually Powerful that makes me? Are you even smart enough to comprehend that THERE IS NO DIALOGUE or DEBATE ON THIS BOARD EXCEPT ME!

TRUTH IS IN THE SCRIPT!

Perhaps, you should take your board PRIVATE and Label it the MAGA Communist ECHO CHAMBER! DO not invite the General Public then Cry because you dont get an Echo Chamber.

Youre all cheering government workers being fired. You do not even realize the Dangers in firing people in mass so carelessly. So ... I am pointing out the Obvious; but none of you are intelligent enough to see it. All you people do is call me vile names and threaten to Ban me. Youre Commies!

I conduct my own tests online. And, Youre all Failing Badly. I can see the Direction America is Heading ... Straight towards Disaster! I warn and none of you can stand it: Youre all so hell bent on self-destruction that you cannot stand anyone Warning! Opinions are not even Tolerated! You wont debate or challenge … YOU BAN! Something is Very Wrong with you people! You need help. Truthfully, it is too late.
