Proposed rule by Office Of Personnel Management to make it easy to fire civil servants without cause

Text taken from thisfinecrew:

A proposed rule was made to look like red tape reform, but it’s a power grab. It would let Trump fire thousands of key career civil servants with ease (think Schedule F 2.0).

Public comments are open until May 23.

The fun about this particular rule is that it purports to be a mans of preventing workers from expressing unacceptable political ideologies…by giving political appointees the ability to dismiss them from the civil service if they don't conform to the political appointee's ideology. Makes it pretty obvious that this has nothing to do with poor performance or other such legitimate reasons for dismissing someone.

I know.

You're right, sorry. Sometimes we comment to hear ourselves talk.

I 1000000% was not commenting in any sort of criticizing way and absolutely did not think you'd take it that way! I only was trying to agree with you, and I'm sorry if I offended - I definitely didn't think you said anything that merited an apology :)

The difficulties of text communication! *shakesfist at textual interpretations*

Thank you for clarifying.
