Trump plans to fire thousands of government workers -- but it won't be easy

Here’s how President-elect Donald Trump could use “Schedule F” to gut the civil service — and how he could be stopped.

By Jay Michaelson, author and journalist
One of the linchpins of Project 2025 — the collection of policy proposals that some in Trump world have now warmly embraced after spending six months claiming they had nothing to do with it — is the planned replacement of up to 50,000 career civil servants with political appointees loyal to President-elect Donald Trump. But it’s not an idea confined only to Project 2025: Trump’s own “Agenda 47” calls for an “executive order restoring the president’s authority to fire rogue bureaucrats,” and Trump himself said of civil servants, “They’re destroying this country. They’re crooked people, they’re dishonest people. They’re going to be held accountable.”
