>Just before Election Day 2025, the U.S. federal government employed approximately 2.3 million people. By the end of the year, it is expected to have shed approximately 213,000 jobs, according to the Partnership for Public Service.
That’s very interesting because it’s a much lower amount of layoffs than the official figures; from the latest [Employment Situation report](https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/empsit.pdf):
>Federal government employment continued to decrease in November (-6,000). This follows a sharp
decline of 162,000 in October, as some federal employees who accepted a deferred resignation offer
came off federal payrolls. Federal government employment is down by 271,000 since reaching a peak in
January
Are official government stats being rigged to look worse for Trump than they really are? /s
