Federal employees are working closely with former Obama administration officials to thwart future President Donald Trump’s policies and initiatives, according to a report published by The Washington Post.

Federal workers regularly consult with Obama-era political appointees about ways they can push back and potentially stymie Trump’s initiatives, according to the report.

Dozens of federal workers attended a support group last weekend for civil servants seeking a place to hash out their issues with the Trump administration. Nearly 200 or more federal employees, many of whom worked for the Obama administration, have signed up for workshops meant to train

First off, there ARE no “Obama Officials.” They might have been once, but no more. They will find out who their new commander is in a way that will make them rue the day they tried to pull their same old duplicitous horsesh!t with Trump. He ain’t kidding one bit.

One of Zero’s programs was to send Political Officers into all branches of government. Not much different in concept than Union Organizers in the auto factories. Of course everyone is familiar with the concept in the old Soviet Union.

They need to be weeded out asap.

To those familiar with the hard to fire employees Federal rules- could they get rid of these guys for this.

I am so sick of the employees being protected no matter their behavior..like stealing 400k at the VA.

It will take a generation to rid the federal government of Obama’s vermin.

Hmmm. Cutting the staff may actually be easier than even I imagined.

Exactly.

This is GOOD news. Those employees who are going to be a problem - disruptive, insubordinate, at odds with administration goals - have just self-identified, making it easy to know which ones to fire first.

My mother was a postal employee when they first struck to unionize.

She crossed the picket lines because she feared a unionized civil service.

At the time, the money seemed more important but I now know that she was correct.

Proud of that woman. Too bad most people lack morals when it comes to money.
