Trump needs to talk directly to the person who refused to provide the names.
“I will expect one of two things on my desk on January 20.Either the list of names or your resignation.”

Look for a lot of shredding and a lot of hard drive destruction.

$32 Billion, 14,000 government “workers,” and 86,6000 contractors that don’t produce a milliwatt between them.

In fairness, they do manage what is left of our aging, outdated, decrepit arsenal of nukes.

I’d think that some commission to oversee nuclear power plants might be needed—though that probably ought to revert to the states—so someone will still be paying 8 or 9 figures. Still, a net savngs of 95%+.

Remember the Exxon Valdez spill? They should require all employees to spend 2 years picking through and cleaning rocks and grains of sand. Make sure none of the buildings used have air conditioning or central heating. To make it extra miserable declare whatever mosquito is indigenous to the area is an endangered species so that swatting even one is a federal offense. For those prosecuted you could offer the plea bargain of quitting their job verses hard time.

Fine......then more to be indicted. I'm sure there are plenty of disgruntled patriots in the organization who are willing to point out the criminals.

This is one of the agencies that needs to be eliminated anyway.

This, and Education, and a couple of others.

They’d be infinitely more useful if you gave each of them a boiled potato, a zinc rod, and a copper rod.

Unless your use of the word “Administration” means Trump, but that is confusing, as only Obama fits that at the present time.

We can argue semantics if you want, but the incoming President's people have requested the information. What for if not to hold it against them?

My point exactly! The top is the logical place to start and work down the chain. I am curious how many good government employees have incriminating evidence of crimes by these jokers waiting to spring it on the IG at the most opportune time.

The reason is two-fold IMO, one, to put them on notice hoping most of them scurry, and 2, see who screeches the loudest and look at them for covering up their illegal activities.

What illegal activities?

Glad to hear. The US Navy has a better safety record for handing nuke reactors than anyone else on the planet.

their current mission is to totally stop US oil production and refining. So Saudia Arabia will continue to strangle the world.

Screw that.

This is end. I will enjoy seeing it happen.

Totally agree, they need to be eliminated. Period.

There will be a few residual legit functions that will have to be moved elsewhere.
