FIRE:

Most democrat career people
Literally to the last he/her/him/ze/zed woke creeps
Every single DEI hire
Every last CRT adherent
Every single socialist
Every single trans (not all gays)
Every single BLMTIFA

AND EVERY EMPLOYEE SHOULD HAVE A TEAM GO OVER THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA HISTORY. Fire every single one that mouthed off against the USA, hate speech on Republicans, pro-Marxist speech, pro ANTIFA crap, kill Trump remarks, kill deplorable remarks etc.

We need a MASSIVE non-bloody PURGE NOW.

If we don’t we may see ourselves purged in the bloody way at some point in the future. Don’t believe me?

Just go to X and see how many leftists have been calling for violence and or their total hate for us.

Ohh and if Trump needs replacements I would think FR would be a good place to start.

No, I personally could replace a number of those losers, simultaneously. I have had to work for and with a bunch of them for years. I could do their “jobs”. Most of them are there just to create a purpose for them to be there through various wasteful policies and procedures that they create for themselves.

“It’s not helpful for productivity.”

There is nothing productive about government bureaucrats.

McCord was foolish to comment publicly. Babylon Bee could restate: McCord said. “It's not helpful to ask where the $824 billion went.

Mike McCord, the Pentagon comptroller,

Is this the same guy that can’t find $827 Million sent to the DOD?

Fire the Pentagon Comptroller since the Pentagon hasn’t been able to account for billions of dollars or pass an audit for years. Sounds like McCord is afraid the Trump Administration will find a lot of those employees are just on paper, and somebody’s making money hand over fist for people who don’t exist.

“There’s a lot of hard-working, dedicated people in the Defense Department, and if you work with them

As if they would work with Trump.

Are some of these the workers that work from home and show up in person once a month? If so, greatly thin their ranks and have them go to work every day.

“shaken many in the career workforce and is damaging productivity, “ What productivity? They are not shaken nearly enough, not from what I hear about how long it takes them to get simple things done like processing retention incentive payments for regular military people and completing orders. The time to get both things done are measured in months, years or nevers.

“I can tell you that the career workforce is worried — those that I talked to already in anticipation of what might happen,” McCord said. “It’s not helpful for productivity.”


A proper thinking would be, My job is in jeopardy, I better work harder to keep it.

I hope Mikey is feeling pretty safe about his Gubmit Job. Threatening the President of the United States of America isn’t a very bright thing to do. Must be retarded.

Fear of losing their jobs is damaging productivity?

So...I’m afraid of losing my job and my response is to be less productive....hmmm...then I deserve to get fired.

The controller ought to submit his resume to a Fortune 500 company and see how far he gets with being responsible for failing audit after audit after audit.

When I was stationed at Fort Sill, it snowed pretty good one day and the radio reported that all non-essential people were asked to stay home. A guy called up and asked how you knew if you were essential or non-essential. The radio guy said, “If you don’t have a parking lot with your name on it, you are non-essential. LOL.

I remember Newt saying the Pentagon should a triangle.

The operation should be moved inland as having it on the coast is dangerous.
25k people work there. Are all necessary? The building would make a great prison. 5 rings. Prisoners could live there while gutting the place and setting it up for remodel.

I’d move the DOD to Minnesota. Take no chances on turning a red state blue.

It’s seems the pentagon has such an excess of cash that they haven’t been able to keep track of it. Maybe with less cash to have to deal with they will be able to account for what they have already received.

House cleaning and pruning in all white collar DC is urgently needed.
Federal jobs exist to provide a middle-class lifestyle to otherwise unemployable adults.
