And under this President, this mandated training will not include Sensitivity Training.
Freedom is so unpopular with government drones you have to give a refresher course or they will completely forget.
Nothing worse than a rogue rogue bureaucrat.

Capital idea two thumbs up for the Trump administration.
The porn industry is brutal.
SES are not nobility nor are they unassailable.
SES career appointees have civil service protections; they may only be fired or suspended for more than 14 days for misconduct, neglect of duty, malfeasance, or failure to accept a directed reassignment or to accompany a position in a transfer of function.
Non career SES can be removed for any reason, any time.
Back in my youth, I remember that every new employee at the local steel mill had to successfully complete an orientation course entitled, “The Making, Shaping, and Treating of Steel.”
Sounds a little late.
How about, instead a course on traditional punishments for treason and corrupt behavior?
Better dead than red :-)
” they may only be fired or suspended for more than 14 days for misconduct, neglect of duty, malfeasance, or failure to accept a directed reassignment or to accompany a position in a transfer of function”
Having spent all my life in the so-called private sector, I can’t think of a single job where I had such protections.
Civil Service protections may sound like a reasonable guard against corruption and patronage, but it ends up being a guarantee that no ordinary exempt or non-exempt worker in the private economy has.
Call it what you want. Nobody outside the government has such protections. Even contract executives can be let go, they just have a contract that can be used as a basis for a suit.
It’s the functional equivalent of the aristocracy.
They have those protections so there is continuity in government and we do not return to the old days when managing Federal employees were fired in large numbers upon a new administration coming in and filling those positions with supporters and donors who had no other qualifications besides their political allegiance.
The government is not the private sector. Politics corrupts government unless it is strongly checked. That is why Federal employees cannot promote candidates or electioneer nor can they strike.
They can be fired and if so, they cannot work in the Federal government again. That is a far cry from a noble title or privilege.
If you re-read my comment, you’ll see I already addressed the rationale for such “protections”.
And as far as federal employees abstaining from political activity, that’s comical, as we’ve found out over the last 8 years of dirty tricks against Don Trump.
That course should be available to every American.
Nearly as bad, but they look prettier.
There are 2 million Federal employees. A small handful of high profile ones skirted the Hatch Act and spoke out publicly against Trump. That still leaves about 2 million that didn’t do that.
First Chapter:
What is the difference between a right and a privilege?
A right cannot be abridged without due process of law.
With due process of law, a right can be abridged.
It is a privilege to be in the US. It is not a right.
If a person has a Visa, Naturalization or birthright due process applies to the civil contract. A Visa is issued and can be revoked by certain processes.
If an illegal immigrant is privileged to be in the US without the terms of a VISA then that privilege can be removed without violating any VISA.
The terms of all immigration contracts should include
1) Give not aid or comfort to terrorists or enemies of the US.
2) Not receive welfare, or aid of any kind from the government. No Medicaid, no SNAP, no nuthin.
This will cause mass confusion for the leftist in government.
