Axios reveals Trump's plan to take out the deep state
American Thinker ^ | 23 Jul, 2022 | Rajan Laad

Intended as a hit piece, it reads like an important section of Trump’s 2024 campaign manifesto to his supporters.

Just yesterday, Axios carried a piece provocatively entitled “A radical plan for Trump’s second term.”

The following are key excerpts from the article:

The heart of the plan is derived from an executive order known as “Schedule F,” developed and refined in secret over most of the second half of Trump’s term and launched 13 days before the 2020 election. (snip)

Trump signed an executive order, “Creating Schedule F in the Excepted Service,” in October 2020, which established a new employment category for federal employees. It received wide media coverage for a short period, then was largely forgotten in the mayhem and aftermath of Jan. 6 — and quickly was rescinded by Biden.

Sources close to Trump say that if he were elected to a second term, he would immediately reimpose it.

Tens of thousands of civil servants who serve in roles deemed to have some influence over policy would be reassigned as “Schedule F” employees. Upon reassignment, they would lose their employment protections. (snip)

An initial estimate by the Trump official who came up with Schedule F found it could apply to as many as 50,000 federal workers — a fraction of a workforce of more than 2 million…. (snip)

That 50,000 could easily be the Senior Executive Service and the top 2-3 levels of the permanent Federal bureaucracy. Firing them would be a great start to what needs to happen.

Keep in mind that Axios is a leftist rag written in the fiery pits of Hell.

One of the greatest images of the Trump years was those USDA employees at the press conference where it was announced that the Department of Agriculture was being relocated to Kansas City to be closer to the people they were supposed to serve.

Over half of the employees had their backs turned in disrespect.

This needs to happen to every cabinet department (with the possible exceptions of State and Defense) so the drones could be identified and the RIWs could begin in earnest.

Yep, replace the top 2-3 levels with constitutionalist conservatives that will be given free rein to clean house in each of their organizations.

Talk about stoking divisions although it’s not like we’re already divided.

I’d be happier than a pig in sht if Trump does as outlined, but the source of this BS is leftist trash Axios which I highly doubt has any inside info on anything anywhere. A monkeypox on their house.

Forget it, Jake. It’s Axios.

I’m taking this with a BIG grain of salt.

PLEASE do it. Last time Trump thought they would play fair. Now he knows better. Start with canceling the Dept of Ed. FBI, CIA and DOJ. Lock the doors on day 1 and send pink slips in the mail. Do NOT let them back in the building.

The State Department is the most in need of a purge.

I do hope that this is what Trump will do if he runs and is elected to a second term. But I don’t for a moment believe that the Left Wing Axios has access to anything Trump or his team is thinking of doing in a second term. Instead this is an attempt by Axios to say “just look at how radical and unhinged Trump is to do something like this if reelected, so you government employees don’t vote for him”. That is the kind of thing the Left does.

BITE YOUR TONGUE!

The State Department is hugely in need of some serious renewal, starting with hiring from flyover state schools instead of the Ivies.
