The Department of Transport is panicking after experiencing a much higher amount of voluntary resignations than expected.
The Department of Transport is scrambling to retain its staff after thousands volunteered to resign.
About 4,700 people applied for a second resignation offer, amounting to around 9% of the agency’s total workforce.
The vast majority of offers are said to come from employees at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
Employees facing resignation have been forced to attend a series of “career transition” workshops, described as “insulting.”
They are currently trying to blackmail immigrants to self-deport. And apparently some citizens. They are also sanctioning employers of prominent public figures they don’t like (at least one law firm). They are blackmailing universities who don’t help oppress protestors. It’s a matter of perspective, but they are 100% using that data to threaten others to silence critics.
You could argue it on a technicality if you don’t like that definition of blackmail but it’s an apt enough word for colloquial use.
