Hopefully this means the senior executive service (SES) is going to lose their grip over the executive branch and go away... that got put in place under peanut farmer...
Yes! Most people are not even aware of the SES...a totally redundant 'branch' that can't be terminated...🤬
“Why didn’t trump fire all these people?”
“Because the president isn’t in charge of the administrative branch, and it’s not legal for him to fire them except in egregious cases.”
“Wait, what? The president can’t fire his own people?”
“They don’t work for the president.”
“Who.. do they work for..?”
They work for their own career advancement.
...there needs to b a full investigation into the [ SES ]
Yes, that is my hope. Slightly tangent, but in a similar vein: The CE of a local municipality gets cash-money 10X what a gum-shoe bureaucrat gets. And what do they really do? Most spend, spend on career-making 'monuments'. Publicly visible projects that soak up endless $$$. Of course subsequent councils then have to raise the rates to pay off the debt. Disgusting.
I don't think councils work, or should be structured like, corporations, TBH. More often than not, the bureaucrat should be an umbrella AGAINST over-legislation, with empathy for the littlest rate-payer. And they don't need a board of directors telling them how to do that job, nor will it help to outsource those 'boring', little joblets to 'professionals' (exec idea). BEcause guess what? Those private sector peeps charge double the rate, for an over-inflated, gold-plated, but sloppy, job.
