The White House is preparing to offer buyouts to every federal worker, @axios  Marc Caputo and Emily Peck report.

Workers who don't want to return to the office can get paid through Sept. 30, as long as they resign by Feb. 6, a White House official tells #Axios.

Why it matters: It's an acceleration in Trump's already unprecedented purge of the federal workforce.

What they're saying: "The government-wide email being sent today is to make sure that all federal workers are on board with the new administration's plan to have federal employees in office and adhering to higher standards," a senior administration official tells Axios.

"We're five years past COVID and just 6 percent of federal employees work full-time in office. That is unacceptable."  #TRUMP
