#2 The offer of a demotion for someone at that level is a deliberate insult, intended to drive someone to resign rather than be let go. There is also the question of pension: I don’t know if federal pensions are based on the last paycheck, and whether someone who is demoted necessarily has his pay reduced to the match his new assignment rather than his old rating.

#3 Officially, McCabe "stepped down," but administration officials informed the media that he was "removed," which suggests he was forced to resign.

#8 In the Army, a felony conviction can result in forfeiture of retirement benefits. I don't know what the rules are for Civil Service.

#9 If you used your service gubbamint position to commit crimes, you usually lose at least those years credit. Too soft, IMNSHO
