As they readied to leave work Monday, some workers at the Food and Drug Administration were told to pack their laptops and prepare for the possibility that they wouldn't be back, according to an email obtained by The Associated Press.

The mass dismissals have been expected since Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced last week a massive reorganization that will result in 20,000 fewer jobs at the Department of Health and Human Services. About 10,000 will be eliminated through layoffs.

Anand Parekh, who worked worked at the department during the Bush and Obama administrations and is now the chief medical adviser at the Bipartisan Policy Center, wonders what kind of analysis Kennedy has done to arrive at job cuts. He questioned how closely Kennedy could examine each of the agencies after spending just over a month as health secretary.

Trump and his gang don't give a fuck about the health of Americans.
And when they have to go back and try to rehire some of these people they fired those people may think what the fuck if they can just fire me on a whim how long will I have a job, and turn around and go some place else.
