💨 Abstract

The Energy Department has identified 8,500 non-essential positions, mainly in nuclear weapons maintenance, as potential targets for large-scale firings, according to a document obtained by The Associated Press. President Trump's executive order aims to reduce federal employees. The White House did not immediately respond to questions on whether such cuts will be implemented. Some of these positions have already been reduced through deferred resignations.
