Excellent! I’d like to see a steep hiring ratio for the next eight years. Perhaps one new FedGov hire for every three (six?) who leave from bloated departments.
All of these Executive Orders are great. Will they later be turned into law? Or will they remain EOs that can be overturned?
Keep voting for Trump/Pence and Pence/? and don’t worry about it.
Interesting point that aligns with a trend in the Contracting world...at least my slice. We bid on several RFPs recently where one stated goal was to lower the contract cost by lowering the median age of the contract workforce.
I would assume the DAMNED congresscritters WILL turn them into law, they DAMNED WELL BETTER!!!!!
“Can he save the $500 Million that went to Global climate initiatives under obamas order last week?”
Maybe some of these bells can be unrung.
“JUST IN - US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to formally remove the US from the TPP!”
The Election has consequences for our enemies around the world and here, and it is bringing about wins for America/Americas.
Exactly. They probably need departments to determine what functions get cut and which functions stay or maybe get added in some cases. Then determine force levels and which people to cut. Maybe the 10% force reduction takes care of it or maybe they need to root out much more than the 10% to get rid of partisan hacks and then hire new blood in certain places. Who knows? That's what they will need each department to analyze.
“BUT, Trump is not even close to being the most conservative candidate in the GOP primary!”
President Trump has been up since 3AM.....is that all he’s done?
We live in extraordinary times, thank you Donald John Trump!
Obama made SO MANY new regulations before he left, all through really, trying to make it tough to dismantle. You can expect a flurry of executive orders overturning previous executive orders , and implementing new policies of their own. Nothing to worry about. It’s good in fact.
BUT, Trump is not even close to being the most conservative candidate in the GOP primary!
If federal hiring is frozen just for one four year period, we will have a significant reduction in federal spending due to attrition. This is great news!
Any money not spent can be rescinded with an ExO!
Meaning DOD Civil Service? We've had positions open for 8 months now...that's the "normal" hiring pace.
Cruz will also explode on TPP! Yes!
That is a beautiful thing. Although he had to know that was coming unless he is dumber then I thought.
He’s done more on his first Monday to help the country than Obama did in eight years.
Absolutely correct!
LOL. While he was signing, I think the MSM were still agonizing over the crowd size and Sean Spicer’s presser.
Fools.
He comes from a world where time is money.
Cameras were on in the Oval Office as he signed and explained what he was signing.
So. He is going directly to the people.
