The Trump administration has reportedly fired over 300 employees from the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), the agency responsible for managing the nation's nuclear stockpile. This move is part of broader layoffs within the Energy Department, raising concerns about the impact on national security.

According to sources, some officials involved in the layoffs were unaware of the critical role played by the NNSA in overseeing America's nuclear weapons. While an Energy Department spokesperson disputed the number of personnel affected, stating that 'less than 50 people' were let go from NNSA, concerns remain about the loss of key staff.
