I was keeping track of this for a while, and posting the results on the eternal Q thread.

After a while I moved it to my Profile page, where it still is available. I need to get it updated.

I tried to research each departure and decide if it was a really true that it was a sign of swamp cleaning, or just a normal departure.

The OOR category had to do with the idea that these people were fired as a response to the the Coup attempt. Obviously anyone who left before the the Mueller investigation started was not fired as a response to it, but may still have been fired for general evil or insubordination (as Sally Yates was.)

As a response to the Deep State Coup firings are pretty weak. And firings that are disguised (by both sides) as 'retirements' or 'resignations' are even weaker. At least McCabe was "firsd, fired" (to use the Whoppie style term).

More of those would have been good.

Ultimately we are all still waiting for arrests (hopefully via televised SWAT raids like Roger Stone was subjected to.)

Ultimately keeping track like this is for Trump Devotees only , who want to get some feeling that he's holding people responsible. It's not surprising the Epoch Times is now doing this.

In truth a lot of people leave FedGov every year, more so after elections. So these metrics aren't really a good measure of retribution.
