Early in his reign (I can’t remember when) Hussein doubled all Federal salaries; again, this is from my recall. This must have been the reason - keep all the ingrates in government by making outside employment a step down in take-home pay.

He needs to quit and run for the Senate in Montana. We need that seat, and he could win.

Have a big enough Reduction-in-Force so that, under seniority rules, most of the employees hired during the Obama regime are RIFed.

Yup. Or at the very least have a contract for each government employee that automatically expires at the end of each Presidential Administration (or stagger it to a month afterwards, so as not to be left without employees at the start). Getting rid of the bennies that come with it are paramount and ludicrously expensive retirement plans. Working for the government should be a sacrifice for a limited period of time. Instead, armies of bureaucrats go there to get filthy rich at the expense of the taxpayers.

How does that square with the fact that 90 plus percent of fed govt employees voted for that treasonous corrupt harpy?

“And the other two-thirds are EXTREMELY disloyal to President Trump.”

Yup. Bush, Clinton, & O’muslim holdovers. The fed govt is irreparably corrupt.

Trump needs to fire them all. All 96% of them. That should bring fedezilla back within its constitutional parameters.

One-Third is TOO LOW.

I KNOW it’s more than that! DOI-OS, BLM, USGS, BIA, NPS, FWS - I guarantee these agencies and offices are full of die-hard lib-tards.

This is not speculation. Believe me.

I’m betting he needs to check his math - I would imagine the number is much higher

Actually, it’s 8 months since Trump was sworn in.

Yeah, 8 whole months to clean out the Swamp that’s been decades in the making, huh? He should have had it done by January 25, right?

For every one we know about there are several undetected.

It's time for some extreme vetting. Anyone registered as a RAT voter needs to have their position eliminated. Don't think the RATs don't do it. How do you think they gained complete control of the executive branch?

The same holds true for every other department and agency.

Clogged swamp. There will never be a “plumber” unless we break our chains.

Congress needs to allow us to fire theses people in mass, and either replace or not replace them.

Relocate the 33% to rural Mont. for a few years to see if they can shape up. If they can’t, cut them loose in Chicago.

Back in the late 1800s, the U.S.Civil Service was created for non-policy staffing of the U.S.Government bureaucracy. The change-over of Administrations caused significant disruption as unknowledeable people took their places every 4 to 8 years.

Now it is the opposite case, too many are protected from firing (remember that GSA guy several years ago?) and the majority of them are ideologically inclined towards Statism and the LEFT. This is the SWAMP and draining it will take more than even the best of Presidents!

That's probably where most of them came from.

I would point out that a government employee does not take an oath to be loyal to the President. The oath is loyalty to the Constitution.
