Trump Cleaning House - Wants accountability in Federal Workforce

Trump’s new federal hiring guidelines

deliver what we’ve all been waiting for

a five-day express lane to fire incompetent bureaucrats clogging the D.C. swamp.

At a Glance--
● The Trump administration has introduced new rules to allow for the firing of underperforming or unsuitable federal employees within five workdays.
● A separate Presidential Memorandum freezes most new federal hiring and requires all new hires to be approved by Trump-appointed agency leadership.
● The moves are part of a broader effort to dismantle the “deep state” and increase accountability in the federal workforce.
● Critics from government unions and progressive groups claim the new rules violate the “due process rights” of federal workers.

“Public service is a privilege, not a right,” acting OPM Director Chuck Ezell said in a statement. For too long, federal employment has been treated as a lifetime entitlement program. This new rule finally brings a measure of accountability to the D.C. swamp.

Read more about it... Of course, groups are organzing to fight it with the usual complaints, i.e., due process, etc. They like the swamp exactly like it is.

There's so much waste in federal government I know I had a family member who worked for the federal government in Maryland and would go to work and work so hard and he said most of the people that came to work they would bring books and read all day and they never did one thing all day long but read their book there is just so so much waste in the federal government!
