What government agencies are experiencing staffing issues under the current administration and what are the impacts?

Multiple key government agencies are facing significant staffing disruptions. The Social Security Administration lost top officials over data disputes, the FDA's food division leader departed, and over 400 Department of Homeland Security employees were purged. Additional agencies affected include the FAA, USDA, and various health agencies. These workforce reductions are creating operational chaos during critical periods like tax season. In many cases, the administration is scrambling to rehire staff they fired after realizing their importance to essential services. This pattern of dismissals followed by attempted rehiring demonstrates poor planning and threatens critical functions like food safety inspection, aviation safety, and national security operations.
