18.4% of the 370,000 federal employees so when you talk about firing 50,000 federal government workers you you're talking about firing a lot of African-Americans in August 2023 conservative think tank the Heritage Foundation in collaboration with other right laning groups published is Project 2025 according to its official website the project aims to pay the way for an effective conservative

reintroducing legislation making it easier to fire uh federal employees prosecution for Distributing abortion pills by male and and abolishing recently established diversity equity and inclusion uh Dei initiatives at the Department of Defense however one of the most significant proposals is a plan to reintroduce schedule f a a a trump era executive order resed by President Joe Biden okay research schedule F the schedule of employees resented by President Joe Biden that would see tens of thousands of federal workers reclassified making them easier to fire once again African-Americans 18.4% of federal employees while the Trump campaign has previously said the outside that outside groups do not speak for the former president project 2025 1,00 page proposal was drafted with input from a long list of former Trump Administration officials who are poised to fill top position top ranks of a potential new Administration according to the Associated Press Newsweek has reached out to Trump's campaign via email for comment now during Saturday's msnbc's the weekend former RNC chair Michael Steele who is African-American and the co-host of the program he discussed the specific proposal of replacing federal workers asking Kevin Roberts a a Republican and the head of the Heritage Foundation about who will be replacing them about who will be replacing them quote talk to us about what that looks like if Heritage is calling for removing 50,000 federal employees who are you replacing them with and where do they come from I suspect a lot of the those people people you are talking about have been in the federal service for a long time and serve not just Republican administrations but also Democratic administrations Michael steel said Kevin Roberts mentioned political contributions as he claimed federal workers contribute to the Democratic party see what they want to do is they want to go through and weed out federal employees and they only want they only want federal employees who will be loyal to Donald Trump and that's not how federal employees work federal employees are not loyal to a president they are employees that serve the country they serve they stay there for 20 30 40 years they serve many presidents that they're not there to serve a president I mean what I mean is they serve under many presidents that they're not there to serve a president they're there to serve the country but they work under many presidential administrations they're not there to be loyal to one person that's not how this works quote they have they have and 95% of them who give political contributions give them to the Democratic party Kevin Robert said the head of the the Heritage Foundation they can they can donate to whoever they want to they they can you can be a federal employee and make uh political donations you have a right to do that however Kevin uh Michael steel interjected and asked quote so you're going to fire someone because they wrote a check to a Democratic candidate Kevin Roberts continued by doubling down on the efforts to replace civil servants calling them unelected bureaucrats quote now we're going to fire someone he said he said no quote no we're going to fire someone and the number needs to be more than 50,000 more than 50,000 people considering there are more than 2 million federal employees because of over the last century the radical left has seen the administration State as the fourth branch of government they're unelected bureaucrats But ultimately we have to devolve power from the Imperial City of Washington back to the
