Trump wants to control all federal firing & hiring. He wants to be able to reduce & refill the ranks of career fed'l employees. It's soft coup (non-military) happening before our eyes, but too many people aren't paying attention. Read about it here: joycevance.substack.com/p/humphreys-...

Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

🚨 FLASHBACK: 2011 🚨

In 2011, Congressional Republicans cut their budgets to reduce government spending. 💰✂️

Now, under the Trump Administration’s efforts to reduce spending, who in Congress is willing to do their part again?

Will they cut their budgets or keep spending YOUR tax dollars on waste?

A federal appeals court allowed the head of a government ethics watchdog agency, whom President Donald Trump fired last week, to stay on the job. It’s a decision that will likely tee up the fight over similar dismissals for the Supreme Court: cnn.it/3Qlfyhm

Then releasing it as if they discovered it ?

Brilliant if true. Absolutely brilliant. Fooled me.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Woo woo woo! So, we’re talking about saving taxpayers’ money, Congress? Federal employee compensation costs $271 billion—so even if you fired all of us, that’s all you’d save.
