I think Americans deserve to know who in our government actually pledged their loyalty to Trump.

That is someone whom I would not expect to put COUNTRY FIRST and I think we all need to know who they are now. I can't believe that Trump only required a loyalty oath from Comey. If I had to bet my first born, I'd guess Dan Coats, the director of national intelligence, and NSA director Mike Rogers gave theirs based on their unwillingness to discuss their conversations with Trump during yesterday's hearings. These men took an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America. That should have been sufficient. Anyone willing to pledge their loyalty to Trump should not be trusted to put America First.


But we'll probably never know who did since I don't know if this is part of Mueller's area of investigation as Special Counsel/ Special Prosecutor but I think it should be. However, it should not be a practice that is allowed to continue.

I would like to write a letter to Mueller to inquire whether he is looking into this matter. I don't expect any of Trumps minions to be brave enough to challenge their boss by bringing it up. I think DU, and friends and Family of DU, should flood the Special Counsel with complaints asking him to look into this matter if he isn't already doing so, and shut this practice down. It can't be legal. In fact, my guess is that it would be downright discriminatory to ask such a question as a condition of civil service employment, even if you're the president. I am going to do it, but it would be nice if we could flood the Special Counsel's office with thousands of our letters.

What do you think???? Would you be willing to send a letter to Special Counsel Mueller? Would you be willing to pass this on?

They pledge to support whoever comes out on top in the primaries.
They pledge to Grover Norquist that they will never raise taxes.
They pledge loyalty to Donald Trump.
Oh yeah... As an afterthought to all that, they pledge to protect and defend the Constitution.

Who otherwise faced working at McDonald's. (not that there's anything wrong with that except in 1% eyes)
