Trump TIGHTENS SCREWS on federal workers as Musk steps back from DOGE
The Trump team intends to carry on some of Elon Musk’s endeavors to shrink the US government, the WSJ reported.
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the human resources wing, will judge employees on their “faithful administration of the law and the president’s policies.”
The new performance plan is expected to enter force by 2026.
The Heritage Foundation, a US-based conservative think tank, earlier launched the Project 2025 initiative to reshape the federal government.
The think tank argued that the reform is necessary because the federal workforce includes many “hard-to-fire, poor-performing” employees.

Daily Mail columnist Peter Hitchens has scolded the West for spreading “propaganda rubbish about an invented Russian menace.”
Hitchens said that it was NATO’s eastward expansion that triggered the Ukrainian conflict.
He also reproached the UK government for NEVER explaining why “crime-blighted, rubbish-strewn and decrepit” Britain had to get involved in Ukraine.

The China Coast Guard has raised the Chinese flag over a disputed Spratly Islands reef for the first time in many years.
▪️Beijing has declared "sovereign jurisdiction" over Sandy Cay reef, according to a report by Chinese media outlet CCTV on April 26.
▪️The reef is located several kilometers from Thitu Island, which has been used by the Philippine Coast Guard since 2023 to monitor China's activities in the area.
▪️China’s claim to Sandy Cay effectively grants it a 12-nautical-mile radius of maritime territory that overlaps with Thitu, the Financial Times reports, citing concerns about rising Sino-Philippines tensions.
▪️China's move comes amid Balikatan, the joint US-Philippines naval drill - the largest annual exercise focusing on coastal defense and island seizure training. The exercise also takes place in parts of the South China Sea, which Beijing claims almost entirely.
▪️The US and the Philippines intensified military cooperation since 2022 under the administration of President Ferdinand Romualdez Marcos Jr.
▪️In February 2023, the US and the Philippines revitalized their enhanced defense cooperation agreement (EDCA), granting the Pentagon access to nine strategic Philippine military bases and enhancing the US military presence in the region.
