Every employee signs off on handling certain material. This is BS.
Investigate and prosecute offenders.

Send out a tweet, “If you leak, you’re fired!”

Saves tax dollars and time.

Send out a tweet, “If you leak, you’re fired!”

The President has no authority to fire career civil servants. Pretty much nobody has the authority to fire a career civil servant. Although we sometimes read about people's being "fired," that almost always means either reassigned or retired.

It’s all been ‘loosey goosey’ under Obama. The rules are being re-established and every employee is being re-educated, re-trained on proper handling AND the consequences. You shouldn’t have to do it because the rules/laws have been in existence all along, but this takes away all excuses ... “I didn’t know, no one told me, well other people do it and there’s been no problem”, etc. The road to severe consequences for violations is being paved ... we’ll see if the Trump admin puts any traffic on that road.

I’d prefer they attend anti-leaking prison cells.

This is just a “make sure they know” class, so that firing them for violating the laws are easier.
