CNBC reported:
About 20,000 Internal Revenue Service employees have expressed interest in accepting the Trump administration’s latest deferred resignation offer, a source familiar with the matter told CNBC on Tuesday.
The agency, which grew to more than 102,000 workers in 2024, would shrink by roughly 20% if all of those staffers ultimately take the buyout offer.
[…]
The looming IRS exodus was revealed on the day of the deadline for Americans to file their income tax returns.
The Federal News Network, citing an internal document, on Tuesday reported that the IRS plans to cut up to 40% of its workforce by the time its reduction-in-force efforts are complete.
Roughly 12,000 IRS staffers and probationary employees have resigned or been laid off since January, according to The New York Times, which reported on the resignation offer earlier Tuesday.

More MAGA great news!

Yup—DRP 2.0 is proving to be a great tool in the staff cutting toolkit.
It is the carrot part of the carrot and stick.
The Deferred Retirement Program means the employee has signed away any rights they had to litigate against the government in exchange for money paid.
It is being used in many different agencies.
The latest (rumor unconfirmed at this point) is that the Department of Justice began their DRP 2.0 yesterday—one week for the employees to decide.

And nobody will notice, especially since they are all working from home at other jobs.

I hope all these laid off “people” have to show up at some point and prove that they exist. Lots of ID badges, laptops, and weapons to put back into inventory.

The administration has already eliminated telework for the vast majority of federal workers.
That caused many of the workers to retire or take DRP 1.0 already.
The staff slashing toolkit to date:
—End telework
—Fire probationary workers
—DRP 1.0
—Eliminate departments and divisions and branches
—DRP 2.0
If that is not enough to hit the administration target numbers then they will go to formal RIF (reduction in force) measures.
Based on the numbers I have seen so far that will not be necessary in most agencies.
The litigation is getting a lot of headlines but at the end of the day it will just be footnotes for historians.
The federal workers will be gone.

—Close local offices

That’s progress!
Hoping he can close the door on the horrid dysfunctional burden of the income tax ASAP!
(It’s not the employees’ fault for allowing them to retire or maybe funding useful productive jobs for the rest of them will be the nice humanitarian way to proceed)

I didn’t know 20,000 IRS employees were needed to accept Trump’s resignation
What if it was only 19,999?

Fake headline
Nope. The Headline is real.
If you mean the information is fake, that's different.
The headline is real, though.

A good start.

Are there more employees to be fired?
Did they not hire 87,000 new people?

It’s probably a slow time of year for them anyway.

I am 100% in agreement with the recent proposal to move the tax filing deadline from April 15th to the same day we elect our political leaders... the first Tuesday in November.
