Federal Tech Employees for US Tech Force Story - The Register - Same-Day

Reporter with questions about US Tech Force Hi, federal employees. I'm a reporter with The Register, and I'm working on a story today about the US Tech Force announcement from OPM. I'm curious to hear what current and former federal employees think about this move after the Trump administration fired a whole bunch of people working in tech roles and eliminated tech teams during the DOGE days. Does this seem like a tacit admission that a mistake has been made? Just a way to staff gov't agencies with AI-booster loyalists? Something else? I'd love to hear from you before my 2:30 PM eastern time deadline today. Feel free to respond here, via DM, or by email. Thanks much, Brandon
