Pollante dismissal by Hayden may reflect the Congressional inquiry into the feasibility of the Register of Patents being independent of the Library of Congress. Or it may reflect an effort on the current administrations need to plant or embed people who promote the current administration's agenda concerning immigration of Muslims and people of diverse ethnicities and races into the US in every increasing numbers. In any event, it needs to be noted by us, the voters, that this effort is being carried out at the highest levels of government. John Conyers who is on the Judiciary Committee surely knew of this dismissal, has had nothing to say, and has actively opposed the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act per the www.theclarionproject.org.

We should be paying attention.

More crony capitalism. They can issue patents to their friends or bribers, whether they have earned them or not.

Affirmative action. Obama is getting people into positions where he can and leaves before it can be reversed. Next president will be too busy maybe to undo these changes. The damage is done.

Mr Trump must know that emptying this swamp of bureaucrats is going his biggest problem because of all the alligators that are dug in like these.

Wiki per this link has Pallente as the Register of Copyrights not Patents. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Copyright_Office

Patents are under the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in the Commerece Department. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Patent_and_Trademark_Office

The author should get their facts straight before going on to speculate. That said, if the assertions are correct, why replace a competent and respected administrator?
