I haven't heard of one. These are obviously not people of sincere convictions.
Grampa Dave,
Me thinks thousands of family members of people disappeared or killed in DOMESTIC accidents will be contacting The Donald in two weeks.
This could be an interesting year.
Sorry, what exactly is your point?
Is the CIA filled up with the Muslim brotherhood? Is that the problem? Let them go.
What is your gross to require 71000 in income taxes? What would a federal government employee possibly accomplish that is worth that much?
My point is that decades ago when considering a career with the government, a low government salary was balanced with high security and good benefits. Some people made that choice and others chose private sector and it was a fair choice.
Somewhere over that past few decades the government salaries increased enormously and the security and benefits stayed high also. That happened because the employer doesn’t need to compete in the marketplace. They just raise taxes on the producers to increase salaries for their own. Taxes taken by force, not earned.
So when you earlier suggested that we could have chosen employment with the government, you were correct, but it was a fair choice back then. You just had to decide what was better for you personally, higher salary or better benefits and security.
Now that the entire compensation structure is out of balance, it is set up to attract more people to government instead of the private sector. Government employees don’t produce, they consume. That is my point and that is why I used the term parasites. If it continues, the host will die.
The desk jockeys do zip. It is the covert contract agents in foreign countries with a war raging who put their ass on the line.
I sold a rental property. Large capital gains. What does being a retired federal employee have to do with it?
Now that the entire compensation structure is out of balance, it is set up to attract more people to government instead of the private sector. Government employees dont produce, they consume. That is my point and that is why I used the term parasites. If it continues, the host will die.
Even a dead host will require government employees including the military.
More imbeciles underestimating the guy who will send them looking for work elsewhere. We were already bracing for the mass exodus of federal workers if Trump prevailed.

I should think that it would be very difficult to clean out that nest of vipers. They are expert at faking, so who knows who’s on whose side?
The problem is the sneaks who will stay and play, by pretending to despise the known suspects.
Like the air traffic controllers under Reagan.. let 'em go.. they can be replaced with a newer better version who work on behalf of America.
Well, a workman is worthy of his wages. Whether or not he’s being overpaid, is another issue. (Not saying you were overpaid; I have no way of knowing that). And, yes, it’s true, life is not fair. That some should work their fingers to the bone, yet be paid far less than some who have worked a much easier job, relatively speaking, is a fact of life. I used to hear teachers complaining that grocery clerks and factory machinists were paid far more than they, even though their job of educating children, was much more important. (The only teachers who can say that now, are some private school teachers) I was a nurse. I worked much harder than some doctors, but obviously, they made 10-20 times what I did. By the same token, I’ve had patients who worked twice as hard as I, at half the pay. The same Book that tells me, “a workman is worthy of his wages”, also tells me of the man who received the same pay for one hour’s work, as those who worked all day, and that who am I to question it? I suspect our Lord, in that case, was referring to those of us who are received into Glory, by the skin of our teeth, just as those who worshipped and obeyed faithfully for many years, are received. No, life is not fair. But, then, THIS life, no matter how much money you make, isn’t worth a hill of beans, when compared to Glory. As the Book tells the rich man in hell, “ You’ve had your reward”. (Just musing; not trying to equate you with that man).
With the marine general at the helm of the CIA the liberal think tank will be placed on a very strict diet. Their role in an America on a reverse course may find many rats being fired and many jumping ship.
The FBI will be trimmed and bureaucrats ejected. The TSA and the ridiculous Homeland Security should become an integral part of the FBI and their ABC designation eliminated along with the thousands of extraneous personnel.
The central socialist government is overburdened with too damned many agencies. Streamline and reduce!
I believe Barry has deliberately larded agencies of the central socialist government with Muslims, potential terrorists, and lots of homosexuals and lesbians.
Malicious rumors being spread by govt workers (Brennan, Comey, etc) who know they are about to be fired. Disgruntled employees.
The CIA WILL BE 1000 PERCENT IMPROVED WHEN THE LOSE ALL THE ODUMBITES THAT WERE PROMOTED FOR THEIR SEXUAL AND OR POLITICAL LEANINGS
Who are the SOCOM here? I mean like the non staff types.
I have 37 on my ping list. I know at least one of them was killed. My vetting is of course limited.
I pinged the list in post 73. Maybe some of them will PM you. I did have you one the list.
Use information from a reliable insider....in secret...then conduct mass firings for gross incompetence! While it’s true some agents have been assassinated, their ‘deliberately’ false information has led to thousands of U. S. troops to be killed or maimed on battlefields.
