Judge orders Trump to reinstate probationary workers let go in mass firings across multiple agencies

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to reinstate thousands of probationary workers let go in mass firings across multiple agencies.

This is not going to go all that well, unfortunately. He ordered them to be reinstated, knowing that the agencies are going to fire them again. He's just making them follow the correct procedures for doing so. I suppose they might fire different workers, but the judge acknowledged that the executive has the power to implement Reductions In Force -- and specifically warned the union lawyer to be prepared for RIF-related layoffs.

Just eliminate the probationary period. That will make things more interesting.

Johns Hopkins to Cut More Than 2,000 Workers Funded by Federal Aid​

The university, a leader in scientific research, has been hard hit by the Trump administration’s cuts, which will slash at least $800 million from its budget.

Johns Hopkins University, one of the country’s leading centers of scientific research, said on Thursday that it would eliminate more than 2,000 workers in the United States and abroad because of the Trump administration’s steep cuts, primarily to international aid programs.

The layoffs, the most in the university’s history, will involve 247 domestic workers for the university, which is based in Baltimore, and an affiliated center. Another 1,975 positions will be cut in 44 countries. They affect the university’s Bloomberg School of Public Health, its medical school and an affiliated nonprofit, Jhpiego.

Nearly half the school’s total revenue last year came from federally funded research, including $800 million from the U.S. Agency for International Development.

Johns Hopkins is one of the top university recipients of the funding that the administration is aiming to slash. And it appears to be among the most deeply affected of the major research institutions that are reeling from cuts — or the threat of cuts — to federal money that they depend on for research studies and running labs.

DOGE Takeover Backfires Over ‘Impatient’ Goon’s Embarrassing Tech Flub​

DOGE Takeover Backfires Over Goon’s Embarrassing Tech Flub

A Trump official failed to fire an agency’s board because the person couldn’t figure out how to use email.
www.thedailybeast.com www.thedailybeast.com

“… Elon Musk’s group tried to fire the board in charge of the U.S. African Development Foundation and seize control of the agency, but they couldn’t figure out how to successfully send an email, the legal document filed Tuesday by the agency’s current president says.

Four out of the five emails that President Donald Trump’s legal team claimed were sent to terminate the agency’s leadership were never delivered.

… The filing says that one email was sent to a Gmail address, but the board member in question doesn’t have a Gmail account. Two others were sent to inactive USADF addresses. And most egregiously, the termination notice for John Agwunobi both spelled his name wrong and was sent to an address that incorrectly used a .org rather than a .gov ending.

… “Perhaps the incorrect email addresses were shots in the dark,” the document reads. “Perhaps they were attempts to deduce naming conventions from other email addresses at the agency or at a business. Perhaps it was assumed that someone with a distinctive name, like Carol Moseley Braun, would have that full name at Gmail. And perhaps a misspelled name and incorrect domain were simply the result of moving fast.”

It says that when DOGE staffers requested personal contact information for the board members, a USADF official said they would look into whether they were allowed to share the addresses.

“But the DOGE employees were too impatient and instead tried to find information about the Board members online,” the filing says. “They never followed up to ask the employee if she had been given permission to share the information (which she had).” …”

From a CNN story about this:

"This is a difficult day for our entire community. The termination of more than $800 million in USAID funding is now forcing us to wind down critical work here in Baltimore and internationally,” the Maryland-based university said, adding that it was proud of the work its employees have done “to care for mothers and infants, fight disease, provide clean drinking water, and advance countless other critical, life-saving efforts around the world.”

IMO, these type of activities are best provided by non-profit orgs with private donations.

That’s because you see it as no more than simple charity.
