  1.  How about faking having enough office space for all the returning Federal employees?

    The Office of Personnel Management is preparing for a “mass offboarding” of remote employees it didn’t exempt from return-to-office plans, as well as employees who accept voluntary separation incentives ahead of layoff plans.
    In February, OPM gave remote employees more than 50 miles away from the office an ultimatum: Agree to a “management-directed reassignment” and relocate to office space in another geographic region, or accept termination from their jobs.
    OPM told employees it would cover relocation expenses for employees who accept reassignment, and gave employees until March 7 to make their decision.
    But in an email sent last Friday, OPM told employees “it is unlikely we will have the financial resources to relocate a significant number of employees who are greater than 50 miles from an OPM site.”

    To me this is the plan – when the Orange Clown Posse "suddenly" discovers there's no place to put all of these Federal employees, they'll double-down on the "non-essential wasteful not-working so let's fire them all" meme they've been embracing. 

      1. I can't imagine Bennet resigning a Senate seat until he is elected as Governor.  That means a replacement appointment by (still) Governor Polis, serving until the 2028 election. 

        I think we can all come up with lists of Democrats who would NOT be a Polis pick.  I'm not certain who would ask to be considered or who Polis might try to encourage to accept the seat.
