Matt Gagnon discusses the federal worker buyout plan, noting that a court order temporarily blocked it, giving the Trump administration more time to convince employees to leave. The Office of Personnel Management extended the deadline to Monday at 11:59 pm, and over 60,000 employees have accepted the offer, which is approaching 4% of the workforce. Gagnon criticizes the government’s inefficiencies, comparing it to the private sector’s ability to restructure failing companies.

Josh Filler works with law enforcement and other public safety agencies across the country on homeland security and emergency preparedness issues.
