By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including section 7103(b) (1) of title 5 of the United States Code, and having determined that the Naval Special Warfare Development Group has as a primary function intelligence, counter-intelligence, investigative, or national security work and that the provisions of Chapter 71 of title 5 of the United States Code cannot be applied to this organization in a manner consistent with national security requirements and considerations, Executive Order 12171 of November 19, 1979, as amended, is further amended by adding the following at the end of section 1-205: "(i) Naval Special Warfare Development Group."

why, indeed?
They do know it is their duty. They also will not because it means losing their jobs. The whistleblower protections provided employees are simply a convenient means to bait potential "trouble makers" for quick and efficient removal.
Get this: If you had a security clearance revoked as I did, you have no recourse in the courts because the courts say they don't have the authority to review denial of clearances. So what is the DOD doing? Forceing every employee to accept a clearance contrary to law with the express motive to hold it over their heads.
Until this strategy is exposed to the public, no sane federal employee would report any wrongdoing. If you do blow the whistle, expect no help from anyone. I exposed CRIMINAL wrongdoing by a former supervisor, former executive director and former commanding officer. Guess what I got?
