Second round of layoffs at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency definitely happening now. I've heard from at least two laid-off employees tonight.

"None of this makes the government more efficient or improves government performance in any way," said one laid-off employee. "The opposite. Great people are being fired."

This person estimated that at least eight people in their division had been laid off, with the agency-wide total possibly matching last week's count of 130. I've asked CISA for a number.
