There is no record of a civil service so hostile to a previous president either. You can't say "it hasn't happened before" when you have the current new situation because of the "resistance"
I thought the civil service, independent of gov't, is
supposed to vet people for security clearance. I thought it was their
job to do so to protect national security. Silly me.
Kushner's initial filing
contained at least 100 errors or omissions that he later had to correct.
That should have nixed all his chances at a clearance from the get-go. But The Orange Virus just does what he wants.
The original reason was to create an IMPARTIAL civil service, and to reduce the need for appointments, and thus the opportunity for corruption. Now we have entrenched Democratic operatives. inside the supposed "neutral" civil service.
Is 100 "errors and omissions" a lot compared to average, and by how much? Is it something that's not a big deal if you are a friend of the deep state, but something that can be nickled and dimed if you are not?
Republicans used to have faith in law enforcement, but now that you have a criminal President sitting in the Oval office, who has been under investigation for years, "entrenched Democratic operatives" are out to get him.
Trump, his reckless and utterly stupid obstruction of justice via Twitter, the open cesspool of lies, and the incessant abuse of the public purse, is the author of his own misfortune.
