Trump wants to sell half of fedral property

 Newsweek - The General Services Administration (GSA) reportedly sent out notice on Tuesday that it plans to sell half of the federal property it manages—a move that appears to contradict Donald Trump's and Elon Musk's plans to get federal employees to return to in-person work in the office.

Trump is pushing to drastically shrink the size of the federal government, signing an executive order that imposed a 90-day hiring freeze on federal agencies—with the exception of military personnel of the armed forces or roles linked to immigration enforcement, national security and public safety—and offering incentives to federal workers to quit their jobs....

GSA regional managers last week received messages from the agency's headquarters in Washington directing them to terminate the leases on all of the roughly 7,500 federal offices across the country, the Associated Press reported.
