Office of Community Planning and Development: The Trump administration is aiming to cut the office, an arm of the department of Housing and Urban Development, from 936 staffers to 150, or 84%, the New York Times reported, citing a document it obtained detailing the plans.

The judge's decision means that, for the time being, those employees who lost their jobs due to the presidential administration’s cuts were to be reinstated.

White House officials call court rulings to reinstate fired federal workers’ judicial activism. Federal agencies — from the Department of Defense to the Energy Department — are giving wildly varied guidance.

The Trump administration appears to be preparing to comply with multiple court orders to quickly place tens of thousands of federal workers fired during their probationary periods, according to officials at three agencies briefed on the plans.

President Donald Trump's administration is expected on Friday to move ahead with a second wave of mass firings and budget cuts across the U.S. government, just one day after two federal judges ordered the reinstatement of thousands of workers.
