"President Donald Trump's executive orders targeting the federal workforce have injected a fresh wave of anxiety among employees across the bureaucracy -- stoking fears the president is coming for their jobs," Politico reports.
"Just a few days into Trump's second term, some federal workers are contemplating quitting. Others are preparing to file grievances with their unions or moving communications with each other to secure platforms like Signal. Some, fearing they'll be caught up in the White House's purge of diversity programs, are leaving their names off of memos and documents they worry could be labeled as DEI-adjacent."
Said one EPA employee: "Trump version 1.0 was bad. I'm already done with version 2.0."
