I cannot wait for the Federal Purge

[Johnny2X2X]

When Biden takes office, he's going to fire every single Trump appointee or civil servant, it's going to be glorious. No one who ever expressed loyalty to trump will be left. March them all out.

Without getting so much as one law to sign, the good Biden can do cannot be measured. Stocking the departments of the federal government with honest, smart, and hard working people will do more than most legislation will do to repair this country.

1. Wish he could do this for all the federal judges.............. sigh

2. Yep, that's among one of the worst aspects of tRump's reign of insanity! n/t

19. Not just Trump. The Party of Ahab's.

And Ahab is not Trump. Ahab is the base.

3. There are remedies for that problem...

I suspect they will be executed by the new AG.

[ShazzieB]

4. Could you please elaborate on that?

I would love to hear what those remedies are. Please fill us in!

[2naSalit]

7. Well...

Many of the newly appointed have perjured themselves during their confirmation hearings so that could be an ouster for those, and then there could be a simple requirement of a certification process for others who are clearly unqualified to be where they are.


Some ideas on that...

8. A perjury purge! I like it.

Thanks for this.

9. As a policy wonk...

Glenn has a way of 'splainin' that makes me feel a little better and more hopeful, especially now.

10. These videos by Glenn Kirschner are AWESOME! "The Citizens Brigade". I'm going to volunteer.

This is so doable, and so important! I hope everyone does this to help save the courts that the republicans have stacked with really insane judges.

11. 2naSalit, you need to make this post with these videos its own thread.

These videos are MUST WATCH.

12. I'll second that motion, 2naSalit, you were the first to post this, do it again.

[2naSalit]

20. I did see them all here on DU first...

I have to think of a title, give me a few minutes.

If he really thinks that there's going to be a wholesale prosecution of judges based on their senate testimonies... he's nuts.

Does he really think that Kavanaugh can be prosecuted for perjury over claiming that something was a drinking game? Me not believing something is miles away from being able to prosecute and convict in court that it was perjury. Before a unanimous jury? Without a court tossing it? Or that just because the ABA rated someone as "unqualified" that means that they certainly lied in their hearings?

And then calling something "impeachable" as though suddenly 67 senators will agree with that?

Entertaining... but not informative.

On edit - Finished the second video. He appears to badly misunderstand both sides of the "super precedent" conversation, but it doesn't matter for our purposes on this thread... because the whole thing boils down to a justification for adding judicial seats to rebalance ("pack"... "unpack"... whatever) the courts. The video must predate the election, because that strategy relied on picking up far more seats in the Senate and holding a larger majority in the House.

In short - it's no longer an option. We don't have the votes (even if we win both GA seats).

6. That is what McConnell is most proud of.

He really thinks he can turn back all of the cultural progress through the courts. I think once he is gone the Republicans will notice that the majority don't agree with them on cultural issues.

13. I reckon they go along because they've been taught to hate Democrats.

My own mother, who was a Democrat, now speaks of us with an acid tongue disdain. Thx FNC!

[ShazzieB]

5. Me, too!

Please pass the popcorn.

14. I get the idea

that Biden is a very, very reasonable man. If there was an appropriately skilled appointee in trump's admin, I think he would consider letting him keep his job. But there is not. I doubt there is one single person on the job there that is not either grossly unqualified, or has criminal charges against him. So yeah, it will be great! Mostly I want that whole stupid family, including Melanoma, OUT of our house. It will indeed have to be fumigated.

15. As a person that works in the education field I cannot wait

for Devos to be gone!

[Johnny2X2X]

17. Yes!

She's #1 on my list of evil people to be purged. Just a total lowlife. Soulless and cruel.

[Akacia]

18. exactly my sentiments! nt.

[rickyhall]

16. If they swore an to Trump, they violated their oath of office.
