Maybe recheck what you know about federal employees. At most it's 35% veterans, and they're not some monolithic group.
Ok but you were talking about the piggly wiggly guy. Do you want to elaborate on that or do you realize how silly that statement is?
I'm sure there's a lot of great people in the public sector but the trump admin would replace them all with trump people if they could. Usually the public sector workers get backpay after these anyway. In the NIH you have people being overridden by trump loyalists. I'm sure its similar everywhere. Better to pay people to do nothing than to follow trump's insane decrees
The Schedule F EO is about replacing federal workers with loyalist dumbasses all the way down to the lower levels, and hasn't been fully leveraged yet. Every agency gets political appointees in the upper management areas, but it usually doesn't go beyond a couple dozen or few dozen people running an Agency of hundreds of staff. That's how it has worked for about a century, and the Civil Service Act only professionalized the middle management and lower specialist levels of federal employees.
Mr. Wiggly represents people who are unaffected and don't care, which polls show is the majority of Americans.
