One of its key proposals is to restructure and politicize the federal workforce, replacing many civil service positions (which currently have protections and merit rules) with loyalists and more direct presidential control.  

The blueprint explicitly calls for reclassifying or converting many civil servants into political‐appointment roles and weakening civil service rules.

Mass layoffs or deferred resignation aren’t called out specifically.
