The Washington Post is furious about an executive order President Trump just signed.

It creates a new schedule for federal workers. Sounds like no big deal, but that would be wrong.

The Post editorial board says this is one of President Trump's most insidious executive orders.

They call it an assault on the civil service. Here's why they're losing their minds.

Trump's new executive order gives him more flexibility to control the huge civil service bureaucracy.

Until now, career employees were so firmly embedded into the bureaucracy that they've been almost

impossible to get rid of. And a lot of these bureaucrats are members of the deep state or the

shadow government. Now the Washington Post calls these burrowed and bureaucrats the federal

government's greatest strength, which is a laugh. The editors worry that tens of thousands of workers,

including managers, lawyers, economists, and even scientists. Scientists. Yeah, could find their

jobs on the chopping block if they're rated poor performers to Washington Post liberals firing

poor performers is insidious. It's an assault on precious civil service bureaucrats, but to most

Americans who don't have that kind of artificial job protection. This isn't an assault and it isn't

insidious. It's just the way business operates on merit. Getting rid of these government parasites

is yet another Trump promise kept. This is what draining the swamp looks like folks. Learn it,

love it, live it.
