    Top 10 Holdover Obama Bureaucrats President Trump Can Fire or Remove Today


    The federal bureaucracy is comprised of about 2.6 million permanent employees protected by Civil Service and about 4,000 political appointees. Many of these bureaucrats are actively engaged in sabotaging President Trump’s agenda.
    Political appointees can be fired by the president at will. Permanent Civil Services employees are more difficult to fire.

    “Today, the Pendleton Act shields from dismissal, even on legitimate grounds, more than 90 percent of civil servants,” the Federalist reports. But even if they can’t be fired from Civil Service, they can be removed from their current positions.

    Here is a list of the top ten holdover Obama loyalist bureaucrats President Trump can either fire immediately or remove from their current positions (civil service).

    John Koskinen, Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service
    Richard Cordray, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Director
    John Lansing, CEO of Broadcasting Board of Governors
    Amanda Bennett, Voice of America Director
    Kenneth Tota, Acting Director of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, Department of Health and Human Services (civil service)
    Anastasia Brown, Acting Deputy Director for Refugee Programs, Office of Refugee Resettlement, Department of Health and Human Services (civil service)
    Simon Henshaw, Acting Assistant Secretary, State Department Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (civil service)
    Mark C. Storella, Deputy Assistant Secretary, State Department Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (civil service)
    Lawrence Bartlett, career official, State Department Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (civil service)
    Elaine Zimmerman, Regional Administrator for the Administration for Children and Families, Region 1, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont (civil service)

    WASHINGTON — With Senate confirmation of Attorney General Jeff Sessions, President Donald Trump filled another important post in his new government. Only 685 to go.

    In his third week in office, Trump’s young government remains a work in progress, with hundreds of empty desks in agency offices across Washington. While the president has criticized Democrats for the delays, he also shares at least part of the blame for moving more slowly than his predecessor to submit vetting information and paperwork for his nominations.

    Try to stay on topic, ITL. I know it's difficult to curtail your hatred, but at least try.

    You are obsessed with hatred and Nazis.

    I bet that you cannot go three days without mentioning either.

    LOL! Posting a list of unfilled executive positions in government is "hate".

    Rolfe is right--you are obsessed with the word. Anything that doesn't fit into your reactionary political position is hate.
