    The "burrowing" was a calculated move suggested by a few of tRump's more knowledgeable politicos. By placing his "moles" in positions that don't require Senate confirmation, they stay in place after an administration change. Firing them is difficult, but reassigning them is doable.

    So, you fear he's trying to create his own "deep state"? Seems like he's just doing the same thing Presidents of the past have done.

    Name a few instances of past presidents placing unqualified lackeys in key positions in the intelligence sector. My guess is that you can't. We have not had a past president as vindictive, self-serving and mentally unstable as tRump. Even career intelligence folks are raising concerns.

    Given how your tRumpworshipping turned out, I don't blame you for being embarrassed enough to return under a new name.

    Well, calling them "unqualified" doesn't change that the very definition of "deep state" is the folks that Obama and other Presidents have put in place to keep their policies moving after they leave office. I do not believe that leftist beliefs qualify folks for anything either... so, again. The same thing every President that wanted more than a temporary effect has done in the past. This time you "really really" don't like the President so it becomes... "Hey look at what he's doing!"... I get that. During the crappy leadup to Trump's Presidency one of the reasons that some conservatives were quite upset at his total lack of experience was that as long as it took for him to get folks aligned and ready to be voted on in the Senate allowed the "deep state" to grow incredibly.

    I get your issue, but I see nothing here that is different from past administrations.

    You are incorrect. I don't buy the "deep state" bullshit in any fashion. As far as tRump goes, he has obstructed a Biden transition in virtually every way possible. For tRump, these "placements" are simply a continuation of his obstruction mindset due to his unstable mental condition.
    That said, again, please list some examples of past presidents ordering last minute placing of unqualified lackeys in key positions within the intelligence community.

    I don't give a "rip" what you buy, every President does it, you just don't like it this time. That you don't "buy it" just tells me that you don't give even an iota of a care as long as the unqualified idiot loves them some leftist ideations...

    Personally, I don't think you are going to find that much people care about this other than you and a few other leftists. Even though at the end of Obama's administration we heard the rightists saying much the same thing about Obama I told them at that time that nobody was going to care because every President does it.

    I will say this, you do have a knack for being constantly wrong. Then again, most tRump supporters usually are.
    For example, I am no lefty. I am a registered independent. Like most tRump supporters, you incorrectly assume that all who despise trump are from the Left. Obviously, you learned little from this past election.
    Now, other presidents have not done the obstructionist activities that tRump has done. Your inability to name instances proves my point.
    I could give a shit if rRump placed his cronies in the Interior Department or half a dozen agencies for that matter. The last minute forced appointment is a national security problem or so says the career intelligence officials. I just happen to agree with them.

    Then there's nothing in the link that Ellis, the person in question is "unqualified." So, this clearly is a lie and hyperbole.

    "(B)urrow" is also hyperbole. As the article points out:



    That is, Biden can remove him. So, it's clear that Trump's appointment isn't "burrow(ing)" anyone anywhere, at least in the case of the article.

    So, another thread started by a Leftist that is replete with lies, hyperbole, and misinformation. How usual...
    Trump has done the with several people. It is a Trumpian sabotage plan .

    Trump reclassified OMB employees into a category making it easier to fire them and reclassified his people into a category making it harder to be fired.

    Exactly. As usual, the diehard tRump fanatics always try to engage in false equivalencies when faced with tRump corruption.
