why is it the case that Trump can unilaterally fire any federal employee? Is this really the rule? This seems like an insane amount of power. For example, could Trump realistically fire anyone who, say, participated in DEI activities?

@pigworker that is a potential answer, but I think it's a cheap one that might not practically hold up. It's hard to say, at least it would require it happening. I understand your point though, I just don't get logistically why the president is allowed to fire individual employees

@krismicinski Not any federal employee, but he has reclassified tens of thousands of them, and those reclassified employees can now be fired at will. Search for “Schedule F”.
