Shrinking accountability? Biden makes it harder to fire federal employees

 The Biden administration recently implemented a new rule that would make it more difficult to fire federal employees.

On Thursday, the Office of Personnel Management issued a rule that nonpartisan career civil servants with protected status will not be able to have that status taken away.

Biden referred to the rule as a "Step toward combating corruption and partisan interference to ensure civil servants are able to focus on the most important task at hand: delivering for the American people." This rule is meant to counter a Trump rule known as "Schedule F" which would have taken away the protection of civil servants and made sure political reasons were not the reason for them being hired.

Conservatives sharply criticized, the rule change, saying it would make federal bureaucracy less accountable to the American people.

"OPM's final rule is yet another example of the Biden Administration's efforts to insulate the federal workforce from accountability," House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer said in a statement.

"The federal workforce exists to serve the American people, yet many Americans have a deep and growing distrust of the federal bureaucracy."The Biden Administration's rule will further undermine Americans' confidence in their government since it allows poor performing federal workers and those who attempt to thwart the policies of a duly elected President to remain entrenched in the federal bureaucracy.

We need more accountability for the unelected federal bureaucracy, not less," he added.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
