. The federal workforce is actually shrinking, and the number from late 2024 to January 2026 is now up to 12 percent of the workforce, most having left voluntarily. That, folks, is what we call a good start. //

The OPM's data shows that the government's civilian workforce shrank by 12% between September 2024 and January 2026, going from a headcount of 2,313,216 to 2,035,344.

Separate data, also released by the OPM, shows that the majority of employees who left during that time did so voluntarily rather than being forced out, Reuters reported. //

12% is scrapping the mud off your boot.

Need to cut another 64-65% of the Federal Workforce - and start with the IRS, Dept of Labor, Dept of Education, and completely eliminate (if not already done) USAID.
