LOL! Who do they think the are? The IRS? Keep it up assclowns. New sheriff in town 1/20/2017. You can do it the easy way or the hard way. Yur choice.

[wastoute]

Easy. Fire every single one. Done.

[PGR88]

Here we go - the leftist, statist ideologues and the self-righteous social-justice warriors who have taken over the Federal Bureaucracy will fight Trump tooth-and-nail

I have not doubt they will engage in all kinds of interference, subterfuge and sabotage.

[NohSpinZone]

Well, Rick Perry knows exactly what he has to do now: DRAIN THE DOE SWAMP!

[Former Proud Canadian]

"The Department of Energy won’t be handing over a list of employees who worked on global warming issues to President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team. "

I guess they are waiting until Jan 20.

[Gaffer]

Purge now, or purge in January. Same difference. They won’t be able to hide the audits and work tasking.

PURGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sacajaweau]

Are they stupid? As soon as he’s in office, he owns them. Who do they think they are??

[Rockitz]

Trump: “OK, we can wait to fire their asses on 20 January.”

[rocksblues]

It only took Obama eight years to destroy 240 years of law and order in this country.

[jrestrepo]

I would suggest that they look at performance reviews, travel logs and meeting notes. That should give them what they want.

[silverleaf]

I think a solid bureaucrat like Rick Perry can do a bottom up audit of the DOE and figure out who got a check in what department and who got hired for what job position
And who traveled to what conferences
First get rid of all the political appointees

[Rick Perry - debate oopsie]

“I would do away with Education, Commerce, and . . .”

Fortunately, Perry will be Secretary of Energy, and he has remembered that Energy is the third agency he wants to eliminate. Without knowing the names of the politicized employees, Secretary Perry can just follow his instinct - fire them all.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

DOE has reassured employees it would not cooperate with the incoming administration on that point.

The nerve of these elected representatives of the people, expecting cooperation from un-elected bureaucrats.

[WKUHilltopper]

There’s some real transparency...something that Oblahblah parroted for 8 years.

[VanDeKoik]

Better use some energy to type up those resumes.

The DoE is an executive department. Means that you don’t have a choice come January.

[Buckeye McFrog]

“to list employees and contractors who attended United Nations climate meetings,

I'm sure they all turned in expense reports

[MeanWestTexan]

Well, here’s a couple of people to fire, or ship to the new office in Antarctica.

[thorvaldr]

Good thing Americans are not ruled by some giant leviathan bureaucracy completely outside our control.

[LouAvul]

I think you're expecting too much from President-elect Trump.

This system has been rigged for 28 years by four treasonous, liberal, globalist presidents from old man Bush down to the current impostor. We've also been cursed with similarly treasonous RINO congressmen.

Plus, many of these RINO congressmen are still in office and have pledged to obstruct Trump at every turn.

It promises to be an interesting four years.

[eyeamok]

Why do we even need a Department of Energy???

I don’t remember EVER having an Energy Shortage before Jimmy Carter created it, do you??

[montag813]

LOL! Like they’ll be able to hide this info from Rick Perry & his deputies. Hilarious!
