What happened to workers at the National Nuclear Security Administration under the Trump administration?

Hundreds of workers at the National Nuclear Security Administration were abruptly fired and then nearly all were rehired just days later. According to sources, some officials who authorized these layoffs were unaware that this agency is responsible for managing the nation's nuclear stockpile, revealing a significant oversight in the administration's workforce reduction efforts. Despite the confusion and rapid reversal of this decision, the president stated he has no concerns about how the situation was handled. This incident highlights potential challenges in implementing broad federal workforce cuts without proper understanding of agencies' critical functions.
