How many times is that now? That his administration has fired a bunch of people and been forced to hire a bunch back? Their incompetence is only trumped by their evil and greed.

The optics on this are terrible, but it’s a classic example of disruptive management style: eliminating perceived ‘waste’ first and then backtracking when the actual function is missed. The real damage is the signal it sends about the stability of public health roles.

It’s disconcerting to see the CDC, a critical science-based institution, being treated as a disposable political tool. This kind of volatility severely undermines public trust in data and expertise which is hard to rebuild.

I wonder if this move was purely cost-cutting or if there was a deeper ideological motive behind targeting specific roles within the agency. It seldom seems to be just about the budget when it comes to science advisors.

This is exactly how businesses run.
The company I worked at let someone go who could not be let go, and we had to hire him back for double what he was being paid

Red light, green light. Not like squid game, not like how you older ones came up on the game, but it’s the same thing with insider trading to make it interesting.

Why is this news? This administration only knows how to fail Americans. It’s an everyday 24/7 event at this stage. And it’s not even a year into the 2nd term.

He will only hire ones with a degree from Google U. I think the Universities motto still is “I did my research on the net”.

Is this regime being stupid on purpose or this some actual misguided “we’re trying to do what we think is right”? Cause I’m truly lost for words with them.

Is this happening so the government can offer them their old jobs for less money and benefits, as well as re-start their accumulation of time employed relating to retirement benefits? Oh, and offer no medical coverage or one covering fewer medical problems?

It’s almost like they definitely know what they’re doing and should, by extension, have the power to control the rest of our lives.
