What is it that SES (whatever that is) supposedly does?
Permanent Undersecretaries of the different Federal agencies, ala the British comedy series “Yes Minister.”
Senior Executive Service.
These are the political appointees that are at the top of the federal agencies and are supposed to serve at the pleasure of the President of the United States.
In most cases, when a Democrat becomes President, a vast majority of SES are let go and replaced with people the new President wants. Over the years I have seen that Republican Presidents keep a vast majority of them because the Press has a conniption fit when they get fired, even though the President has every legal right to let them go.
When Clinton took office I saw several SES hired on as GS15 Federal employees so they could keep jobs withing the government. The ones I saw stayed in the DoD and kept working on the programs they once headed, just at lower pay and reduced responsibilities.
looks like it attracts and pays leftists in government leadership positions who then can control.
Another layer of pigs in this Animal Farm.
