Firings of federal workers begin as White House seeks to pressure Democrats in government shutdown

Feel free to go to the article, I personally see the article as pretty biased but, that's my opinion. Your's may differ.

DJT ran on a campaign that the Federal Government was bloated and needed to reduce the total number of employees. The Senate has given him a real opportunity to do exactly what he said he'd do.

While I don't wish any Feds any bad luck but, they were forewarned along with the Democrats. Government employment is not the same as employment by most businesses, as a former Director for the State of Kentucky (OSHA) as a political appointee. I can assure you it's very difficult to fire one that isn't doing their jobs. I assume it just as difficult for the Feds.

Not sure about that but, OK. I'd suggest Federal Programs staffed with people who are probably/maybe Democrats. You know, the ones DJT campaigned about being over rated, too expensive and full of Waste, Fraud and Abuse.

He said he was targeting projects / areas that are of Democrat interest. Not Democrat-leaning employees.
