#10  I'm fine with that. I'd also stipulate that all "union" membership be terminated, that no union activity would be allowed at any federal government organization, and anyone caught engaged in such activity be summarily and immediately terminated with loss of all benefits. If the UN or the ILO objects, NUKE EM!

#9  We should demand it.

#8  Dumping that many people onto the labor market would most certainly cause problems. Yeah, but it'd be worth it.

#7  Yes, but only if those positions are then eliminated entirely.

#6  I don't see why we'd need negotiators in the ME anyway. I think Israel can keep any land it takes and anyone stupid enough to pick a fight gets what they deserve.

No more 'talking' with fing terrorists.

#5  As an Israeli I would like to add one minor request: no Jewish-American negotiators in ME. In fact, why don't you establish an American consulate in Birobidzhan - and staff it by Jewish USDOS employees?

#4  Simply tell them on Monday that "Work from Home" is over and to report back to their offices for duty or face termination. 85% might resign or retire immediately.

#3  #1 Let's not get bogged down with bureaucratic jargon and waste any time splitting inconsequential hairs.

Yes, but in a orderly manner so as not to disrupt overall Legitimate Health and Protective Services.

And if fired for Violations of Civil Rights, then BANNED for life from any future federal employment.

#1  Just normal firing or lined up against the wall and mowed down firing? Either is fine.
