Any given Deep State person or a Deep State approved person would have such a list prepared, or prepared for them, upon taking office. President Trump did not have such a list, nor was one prepared for him. You are right about it taking time for him to learn who these people were, and that he needs to encourage then to hastily depart. Better late than never, and when he wins re-election, I hope the trend continues on steroids. Many thousands of disloyal, incompetent, arrogant civil service leftist hacks need their walking papers.

Please God, let this be true. President Trump needs to fire everyone below GS-13 and ALL SES employees and install thoroughly vetted patriots, preferably from the military vets.

It is way late to be doing this, but at least he should have trustworthy people in place for his second term.

Dear Lord please let this be true and let it be acted upon with a vengeance. This is exactly what we voted for. Drain the Swamp.

This should have been done the day Admiral Rogers walked into Trump’s office and revealed the coup...cause that’s what it was and still is.

I won’t know what to think about this until Q Anon tells me what to think.

“Members of this network include Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas”

What the hell?

You mean ABOVE GS-13.

The flunkies are GS-5 and the highest non-management are GS-12.

This is fabulous. However, I’m addicted to Chris Plante’s radio show.

Axios didn’t say it was a problem, they just reported it pretty objectively. Save your angst for the bazillion times when they and others deserve it.

I think Trump thought these people were like the private sector and that if there is a new boss, employees would naturally shift their loyalties to the new guy.

In the Prince, Machiavelli instructed the Prince that after capturing a new City, he should kill or banish all of the old leaders or supporters of the previous political leader. Except he said that after the initial purge he should no longer hunt out those that did not favor his initial rule.

He felt that after the initial purge those that survived would feel that they had nothing to fear and realize that working for the new ruler was the safest course of action.

In Trump's case, there was no initial purge and so those faithful to Obama felt they had nothing to fear and there was no reason not to become loyal to the new leader.

That was Trump's mistake in taking control. He should have fired just about everyone and operated without leadership in many branches of government until he could replace people. The Deep State would not have functioned and sabotaged him as they did.
