Slashing tens of thousands of civilian jobs at the Pentagon is just another example of the Trump administration gutting public sector work under the guise of "efficiency." These layoffs won’t just hurt government employees—they’ll impact veterans who rely on these jobs for stability after serving their country. If the administration really cared about national security, they wouldn’t be cutting civilian support staff who play critical roles in military operations. This is all about shrinking government for the sake of ideology, not because it actually makes sense. Meanwhile, defense contractors will probably see even more money funneled their way. Cutting jobs while boosting military spending is just another way to put profits over people.
