Nolte: Heroic Group Seeks to Expose Anti-Trump Resistance in Federal BureaucracyJohn Nolte 24 Jun 2024
A “[c]onservative-backed group is creating a list of federal workers it suspects could resist Trump plans,” reports the lying, far-left Associated Press, as though this is a bad thing:
Tom Jones and his American Accountability Foundation are digging into the backgrounds, social media posts, and commentary of key high-ranking government employees, starting with the Department of Homeland Security. They’re relying in part on tips from his network of conservative contacts, including workers. In a move that alarms some, they’re preparing to publish the findings online.
With a $100,000 grant from the influential Heritage Foundation, the goal is to post 100 names of government workers to a website this summer to show a potential new administration who might be standing in the way of a second-term Trump agenda — and ripe for scrutiny, reclassifications, reassignments or firings.
The entire AP write-up is premised on this un-American idea:
The public list-making conjures for some the era of Joseph McCarthy, the senator who conducted grueling hearings into suspected communist sympathizers during the Cold War. The hearings were orchestrated by a top staffer, Roy Cohn, who became a confidant of a younger Trump.
That, of course, is exactly wrong and deliberately misleading.
No one elected the federal bureaucrats who infest the Deep State. And if these bureaucrats do anything other than implement the agenda of the sitting president, they are the fascists, the vigilantes, and the McCarthyites.
We the people are supposed to be governed by the people we the people elect — the people we elect govern through our consent. When an unelected bureaucrat impedes, stalls, or in any way sabotages the sitting president’s orders, agenda, and wishes, this unelected federal bureaucrat is, by definition, thwarting democracy by governing without our consent.
This additional rationale is also BS…
