Trump’s pick for national security adviser, Florida Rep. Mike Waltz, in recent days publicly signaled his intention to get rid of all nonpolitical appointees and career intelligence officials serving on the NSC by Inauguration Day to ensure the council is staffed with those who support Trump’s agenda.

    “I am loyal to the United States of America.”

    “Disqualified. Next!”

    The entire game plan is to make them feel unwelcome, because then when they quit they can fill their positions with the loyalist whose entire value system is dictated to them by rightwing media.

      I mean… if they implement the schedule F plan he can fire them anyway. At the very least they’re making a list of who to fire.

    What’s this? An office staffed by yes men (let’s face it they won’t hire women), that has never bitten anyone in the arse before

      Women like Candace Owen’s exist. Republicans don’t have to only hire men to promote their agenda.

        That’s true, but they still won’t hire any unless they need a token minority for some reason. This staff will be old, white, and male. Also a bunch of useless fascists with room temperature IQs. This is the start of Trump’s kakistocracy, it’s all downhill from here.

    They should all pledge allegiance. Work in the interest of the country by maliciously complying.

    How can he do this before Inauguration Day? He won’t be in the position/have any authority, right? Or am I missing something?

      You’re missing what so many people seem to be missing because I keep seeing people say things like this: they do not care about the law. They don’t care. And now they don’t have to care.
