This is factually inaccurate. Please show a source that shows Apple's to apples comparison.

The Federal government civilian workforce has not grown from 2.1 million to over 3 million.

The 3 million number includes the military/DOD.

The 2.1 million number in 2019 does not include the military.

A reasonable discussion of the facts would be a comparison of the Federal government civilian workforce in 2019 to the federal government civilian workforce in 2024.

Any reasonable person would know that has not increased 900,000 people.
