Federal Employees Step Up Defiance Of President Trump

Via The Hill:

Government employees are growing increasingly willing to criticize or defy the White House and President Trump’s top appointees.

A handful of current and former career staffers in the Interior Department and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have openly shredded their superiors within the last several weeks, continuing a trend that has developed throughout the government over the course of Trump’s tenure in the Oval Office.

See that line over there? Go stand in it, that one, it's the unemployment line. Do you know what would happen to employees in the private sector who openly defied their new boss? They would get FIRED! These people need to be fired! Make like Reagan did with the Airtraffic Controlers? Works for me! These pathetic little government moochers are just following in the footsteps of the pathetic big government elites. They have no critical thinking skills, only blind faith in their leaders, and doing as they are told. No surprise, it takes a special kind of snowflake to work for the elites and tow the line. Time for mass firings, and don't even be careful about it.
