Federal workers. Want to share your story safely? @ProPublica has you covered.
The decision further clears the way for #Trump to re-fire probationary employees. Those are typically #FederalWorkers in their 1st or 2nd year on the job, or who have been recently promoted.
In a 2-to-1 decision, the appeals court said the Trump admin was likely to succeed in showing that the lower court lacked #jurisdiction in the case brought by 19 states & DC. The court did not rule on whether the firings were #lawful.
#4thCircuit clears the way for #Trump to fire #FederalWorkers again
In a win for Trump, a panel of judges on the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals has vacated a lower court ruling ordering 20 #FederalAgencies to reinstate tens of thousands of employees they had fired.

Don't forget who's defending this: "pro-life" Catholics are doing so. And don't listen to the spin of those who want to keep pretending that the Roberts Supreme Court has not anointed Trump a quasi-king and will overturn every precedent and invent every legal loophole to allow him to continue trampling on people's rights and lives.

And now that same "pro-life" Supreme Court dominated by a bloc of right-wing Catholics is going to bat for Trump as he and Musk remove thousands of workers from jobs, from livelihoods, from wages to pay bills, pay for housing, put food on the table, provide healthcare coverage for themselves and family members, etc.

The treatment being afforded to immigrants who are, it appears, innocent but are being shipped to lethal foreign prisons contradicts Catholic "pro-life" values in the grossest way possible.

Something we shouldn't allow ourselves to forget or unsee as the Roberts Supreme Court invents legal fictions to provide cover for Donald Trump as he rounds up and deports immigrants who are afforded no due process:
The Roberts Supreme Court is controlled by a bloc of right-wing "pro-life" Catholics, Roberts himself included in their number.

#SCOTUS on Tues blocked a ruling from a federal judge in California that had ordered the #Trump admin to rehire 16k of fired #FederalWorkers who had been on probationary status.
The court’s brief order said the nonprofit groups that had sued to challenge the dismissals had not suffered the sort of injury that gave them standing to sue.

'#HandsOff' rally in #PortsmouthNH: Thousands slam #Trump and his policies

PORTSMOUTH — "Large crowds of protesters gathered Saturday at "Hands Off" rallies in Seacoast New Hampshire and Maine and across the nation, speaking out against President Donald Trump and his administration's actions.
"Large crowds in downtown Portsmouth lined both sides of the length of Congress Street, spilling into side streets, exceeding expectations for city police.
Protesters have focused on issues like Trump's tariffs, Trump's actions to end protections for immigrants and transgender people, the dismantling of the Department of Education, cuts to the Veterans Administration, and layoffs of thousands of federal workers.
"Protesters in Portsmouth called for the Department of Government Efficiency to be dismantled, for the federal government to protect #teachers, public #school staff, #Abortionrights, #FederalWorkers, #WomensRights and #LGBTQ+ rights, labeled Trump “#orangeMussolini,” and called for preserving #Medicaid, #Medicare and #SocialSecurity.
“Hands off the Constitution,” one sign said. “Democracy is not for sale!”
Portsmouth crowd grows to thousands

Something’s not adding up
The report is: US employers added 228k jobs in March. About 2X the number added in Feb. The unemployment rate ticked up to 4.2% from 4.1% in Feb, as 232k people joined or rejoined the workforce.
But the report also says: Feb–March, #ElonMusk’s #DOGE signaled cuts of >280k #FederalWorkers & contractors in 27 agencies, acc/to a count kept by the outsourcing firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

ProPublica wanted to find more sources in the federal government. So it brought a truck. - Fracking brilliant, this is… #FederalWorkers #FederalGovernment #journalism #tip #TipLine #WhistleBlower #ProPublica
"Authorizing a #Musk-controlled agency like #OPM to hire a driver while slashing essential #FederalWorkers who actually help Americans in need is a good example."
The #Trump admin, #DOGE, Musk & Ezell did not respond to requests for comment. An OPM spox said in a statement that the agency "has ongoing security concerns" requiring a driver, w/o providing further detail.
OMG, this is so sweet. Wife found out her federal job was being eliminated. Husband drove her out to the burbs to a puppy adoption event, only to find out that they got the time wrong and missed it. So he posted on the DC sub reddit, and if you need a glimpse of human kindness, take a look:
