    Can't make this chit up. Write me a loyalty pledge.

    Trump administration to prioritize ‘patriotic Americans’ for federal jobs

    Applicants for government jobs will be required to write essays explaining how they will advance President Donald Trump’s policy priorities.

    As President Donald Trump moves to slash the size of the federal workforce, his administration unveiled a plan to ensure that any new hires are “patriotic Americans” who vow to advance the president’s policy priorities.
    The White House and the agency that serves as the government’s human resources arm Thursday released directives for departments to use when recruiting employees in a memo that represents a dramatic shift in federal hiring procedures.

    I most definitely want MAGA people in the federal workforce now that Trump is the POTUS. It's time to weed out the prog-filth.

    As long as people do their jobs, don’t care what their political views are.

    All that will be missing are the arm bands with a giant T on them.

    Right here
    Ergo, when Trump is no longer in office, we should weed out all the MAGA people in government and fill all the roles with “prog-filth”?

    This was all in Project 2025. It only stated 50,000 jobs would be replaced with loyalists though. What are we up to as far as lost livelihoods?

    Federal employees already take an oath to defend the Constitution. Employees in governments of third world/authoritarian countries take an oath to support the leader.

    Trump still supports a merit based federal workforce. He's simply redefined merit to mean loyalty to the Dear Leader (him) rather than the traditional criteria of relevant experience and/or academic credentials.

    There are way too many obstructionists who believe they have the right to run government policy instead of the Chief Executive of The United States. I don't care how many, all obstructionists must be replaced by people who will do their jobs within the scope of their constitutional oaths they take. I'm happy to see these people took the oath. I'm not happy that these people are oath breakers.
