In this episode of Workforce Watch, we break down the biggest federal workforce shakeups you need to know about this week. From Trump’s push for sweeping power to fire career feds “at any time, for any reason” to the creation of Schedule G aimed at stacking agencies with political loyalists—this episode connects all the dots.

We cover:

• Supreme Court ruling on firing consumer safety officials

• Schedule G vs. Schedule F: what it means for your job

• The VA’s massive workforce cuts and job downgrades

• Why unions are sounding the alarm

• Behind the scenes of the State Department’s whiplash layoffs

• Census staffing crisis and its ripple effect on communities

• Plus: meet the fired federal workers running for office—and the real economic toll of Maryland’s federal job losses

🎙️ Listen for critical updates, legal battles, and personal commentary that centers people, not just policy. This is more than bureaucracy—it’s about democracy, livelihoods, and the future of public service.
