Elon Musk and Donald Trump are actively trying to burn down the federal government. Federal workers are being fired en masse, with no regard for their roles or the devastating impact their removal will have on everyday Americans. As the country’s largest employer, the federal government’s gutting won’t just affect those losing their jobs—it will ripple outward, impacting millions of families and, ultimately, all Americans. Today, Adam is joined by Max Stier, CEO and president of the Partnership for Public Service, to break down who has been affected, the extent of the damage, and what it would take to rebuild the ruins of our federal government.
