2025 saw unprecedented impacts to the federal workforce. Will 2026 bring similar results?

I will subtract the January 2026 reading of federal employee count from the January 2027 reading using the FRED federal employee counts given here:

If the difference exceeds 100,000 the answer resolves yes, and no otherwise.
