Liberty Nation News: Trump’s Gambit on Federal Workers - Liberty Nation News
Following Donald Trump's 2024 election victory, a significant number of federal employees received an email offering them the option to resign with benefits or face a more demanding work environment. The email outlined changes including mandatory office attendance and performance standards, indicating a shift in workplace culture.
Trump's strategy includes reclassifying federal employees as political appointees and potentially relocating agencies outside Washington, D.C. This approach aims to reduce bureaucracy and streamline government operations, which critics describe as a direct challenge to the federal workforce's existing structure.

Liberty Nation News: Powell vs Trump, Round 2: Fed Defies the President - Liberty Nation News
The Federal Reserve maintained interest rates at 4.25% to 4.5% during its recent FOMC meeting, amid ongoing inflation concerns. Chair Jerome Powell indicated that rate cuts are unlikely until June, a stance that President Trump criticized, claiming the Fed has mishandled inflation and bank regulation.
Trump expressed his belief that he understands interest rates better than current officials and suggested that the Fed should prioritize economic stability over social issues. While Powell emphasized the Fed's independence and the importance of waiting for clarity on future policies, the financial markets will closely observe the evolving relationship between Trump and the Fed.
