USDA says its hiring spree will largely replace workers it expects to lose. But the department hasn’t actually analyzed how many people could walk out the door when those relocations happen. That gap matters. By Jory Heckman and Sean Michael Newhouse: buff.ly/XXKjVYJ

USDA hasn’t looked at staff attrition ahead of relocations, but downplays its impact
Internal data shows the department is preparing for significant churn as it presses forward with office moves, raising questions about whether new staff can fill the gap left by seasoned experts.

The Supreme Court made one thing plain this week: It is an anti-immigrant court. There were hints before—big ones. But in three rulings this week, the GOP-appointed justices greenlit Trump admin policies that both defy federal law and carry a massive humanitarian toll.
