Yep, looks like the whole leadership team at the ATF has gotta go. I'm sure they were all in on the scam.

There should be no ATF anyway. I mean what is the FBI for then? They serve duplicitous roles.

The acronym is ridiculous as well. All 3 are legal in all 50 states. I know it started in the 70's probably due to lingering mafia crap, but is anyone even concerned about that now? They legalized and regulated the mafia, so just let local police or FBI handle it.

For reasons incomprehensible to normal people, federal workers enjoy job protection far beyond anything available to workers in the private sector.

Most of us in the private sector are considered “at will” employees who can be fired for any reason or no reason at all.

Manager doesn’t like you? Fired. Too many customers complaining about your nose ring? Fired. Asked too many stupid questions? Fired. Won’t work weekends? Fired. Talk too much? Also fired. In fact, the right to fire employees is so broad that the exceptions prove the rule. The only things employers can’t fire at-will workers for are their race, sex, age, and a small handful of other protected characteristics. Anything else is fair game.

But federal employees, who apparently occupy a higher, better tier of employment than we do, can’t be fired until a slow-moving termination review committee double-checks their supervisor’s decision to fire them. If the committee disagrees, then tough noogies. But Schedule F creates a special “at will” category, a first in the federal workforce, and that terrifies some federal employees.

For some, meaning the partisans, the thought of working under the same rules as the rest of Americans is just too much. ...

Lawsuits, prepared long in advance, have already been filed. Democrats could care less about worker’s rights when it involves mandatory experimental vaccines. Vaccinate or terminate! But supposedly, they are now suddenly champions of workers’ rights. Uh huh.

The DEI flimflam is particularly illustrative of the hazards still lurking. The DC blob is desperate to hide its chaos agents by switching their job titles and shuffling them around to hidey-holes in obscure precincts of this-or-that bureaucracy. Being federal employees, of course, they all have searchable names and payroll accounts, so you may be sure they’ll be discovered wherever they’re hiding-out and placed, as ordered, on “administrative leave.” Since DEI was essentially a program to promote incompetence, these employees represent a monumental cargo of dead-weight. So, the next task will be finding a way under the civil service codes to cashier them for good. For instance, reclassifying their job status to render them fire-able.



This is sure to be a major friction-point for the so-called “resistance,” the huge cadre of “activist” Wokesters embedded in the agencies. Cue the army of Democratic Party lawyers who will be filing suits to prevent the chief executive from coherently managing the departments of the executive branch. But there’s a catch: this time, the White House will not be funneling scads of money directly to the NGOs that pay for these blob-adjacent lawyers, nor will they be able to redirect money out of the DOJ, FBI, and CIA for that purpose. The president may also find a way to interrupt the flow of money from foundations financed by malign freelancers such as George Soros and Linked-in founder and billionaire Reid Hoffman (who financed the E. Jean Carroll “rape” trial hoax and many more Democratic Party pranks ).

He still has the brainwashed perspective that Trump is some kind of obnoxious, self serving bully boy billionaire.
