What number do you have for median federal worker income in DC then? The median representing the 'hordes' were making $120+k from what I saw, not just the average.

Okay, cite your source for that. ZipRecruiter says the median federal income is $125k, with other sources saying the average is $130k. I don't see any source saying they're making way more than that.

By your own (contradicting) admission it's hordes of federal workers making $120+k.

I cite your own source, which is inline with what I found.
