Chuck Darwin<p>In a shocking reversal, Trump is reversing a directive to fire thousands of probationary federal employees. <br>The Office of Personnel Management, which manages the federal workforce, issued a memo Tuesday to all federal agency heads <br>saying that they don’t have to comply with previous instructions to fire employees who have held their jobs for one year or less. <br>The memo states that instead, federal offices now have until September 13 to determine how to reduce staff. <br>The shift comes only a few days after a federal judge ruled that OPM’s instructions to federal agencies to fire probationary employees was <a href="https://c.im/tags/illegal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>illegal</span></a>, <br>stating on Friday that “<br>[t]he Office of Personnel Management does not have any authority whatsoever under any statute in the history of the universe, to hire and fire employees within another agency.” <br>What this means to the many federal workers who have already been axed is unclear, <br>although several federal agencies have scrambled to rehire workers working in critical areas since last week’s court ruling. <br>These employees include bird flu experts and people working with nuclear weapons.<br>Federal workers have been put through the wringer ever since Trump was sworn in, being subject to ultimatums from Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, which now plans to track them. <br>Even with this latest reversal, many of them may still get axed in “large-scale” reductions. But now, at least some of them will get to keep their jobs.<br><a href="https://newrepublic.com/post/192301/trump-opm-order-mass-firings-federal-probationary-employees" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">newrepublic.com/post/192301/tr</span><span class="invisible">ump-opm-order-mass-firings-federal-probationary-employees</span></a></p>
