Biden Thinks the Senior Executive Service Needs Protection...
Maybe they shouldn't be so bad at their jobs.
I wasn’t planning on posting anything this evening, but you know what happened… A subscriber to Racket News posted a Substack note that ensured a new pot of coffee was set to brew.
The Biden-Haris administration proposed new rules to reinforce protections for career civil service from being removed from their positions. Senior Executive Service (SES) and Senior Intelligence Service (SIS) officers will be protected from executive actions taken by the Trump administration to loosen restrictions placed on the executive office to dismiss civil servants.
Before going any further, I encourage you to read the article by Daniel Boguslaw in The Intercept, Records Reveal Extent of CIA’s Mishandling of Sexual Misconduct.
After reading that article, Google “CIA officer convicted of sex crimes”. No surprise that Google won’t produce results, but I encourage you all to read Whitney Webb’s two volume book series, One Nation Under Blackmail.
Censors haven’t pulled that from the shelves yet.
Then take a deep breath, and just let it sink in… SIS officers were ultimately responsible for every decision that led Boguslaw to pen that article in The Intercept. Great Job CIA…
We all experienced the madness of this administration’s COVID-19 response, largely driven by civil servants beyond even the control of the executive office, and somehow… Biden thinks they need protection. These same SES and SIS civil servants were responsible for ignoring the most obvious Constitutional and Administrative Procedure Act violations in the history of the nation.
They ignored widespread fraud, waste, and abuse.
They vilified whistleblower complaints.
They participated in systematic censorship of free speech.
They lied about cheap health care alternatives to vaccines.
They denied children access to education.
They forced medical procedures without informed consent and killed healthy Americans.
They need tribunals not protection.
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) quietly published the proposed rule late Friday afternoon, 15 September 2023. Again, no surprise…
The subscriber, vladROBOT summed it up best:
It appears to be a bill proposal by OPM to strengthen Excepted positions from termination or recourse. This is basically the opposite of the “Schedule F” order from the previous administration that Biden revoked on the third day of the administration. This proposed bill appears to basically make it even harder to fire career federal employees. It's open for public comment until mid-November, but so far on 12 of 333 million US Citizens have commented.
Please take the time to provide your comments on this proposed rule. We all have the power to make a difference if we all participate in making the change. Please forward this Substack or the links to friends and colleagues.
The CIA eventually replaced the EEO officers responsible for the failures. They replaced those officers with another agency officer responsible for issuing religious accommodations during the COVID-19 pandemic.
You heard that right… The person who had a hand in the largest number of religious violations in agency history and named in multiple EEO complaints, replaced the people responsible for mishandling sexual misconduct in the agency.
What do you expect from a CIA Director who met with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein three times in 2014?
CORRECTION: vladROBOT kindly advised that I had failed to notice that he had reposted the above quote from another Substack user, Paul R. I am thankful to both for keeping me in the loop!
