Don’t forget, the Obama/Jarrett Administration changed a huge number of what were ‘political appointee’ jobs to Civil Service jobs, so whomever they ‘appointed’ gets to stay until they retire. It is almost impossible to fire a civil service employee.
The did this across the board, all departments and levels.
The government was already rife with Democrat bureaucrats, but as long as the Republicans controlled the administrative jobs they would follow orders.
Now, the lower level administrators can essentially tell their bosses to go twiddle their thumbs and do nothing.
The DOJ is not only no exception, the Obamanoids are entrenched....................
Rat administrations when they are outgoing always do the “appointed position to civil service position” conversion. GOP administrations rarely do it. (Actually I can’t think of any GOP examples, but I assume it has been done!) The Zero/Jarret administration did it in unprecedented numbers. They out did the Clintoon administration significantly! (As the Clintoons out did the Carter administration!) The thing is, it’s against both civil service policy & civil service law. However no one ever gets called on it!
