Can someone explain the DRP to me? I don’t understand why people got paid to take 8 months of leave if they resigned?

  It's a quick and easy way to kneecap an organization. Who cares what it costs, it's only taxpayer money.

  At the start of the year, the OPM announced that federal workers could either take a voluntary resignation and go on paid leave until Sept. 30 (today), or be subject to return-to-office orders (including forced relocation if necessary), higher performance standards, and further involuntary layoffs. According to this article, about 100,000 people took the voluntary resignation. As for motive, it's a way for the Trump admin to clear out the federal workforce and install loyalists to make it easier for him to carry out his agenda.
