Keeping my overhead low, and my understand high
Why did Bush and Cheney steal the 2000 Election if they believe in American Democracy?

I mean... the quick resolution of that situation and Al Gore's reaction to it kept our democracy strong and our tradition of peaceful exchanges of power in order.

They didn't try to dismantle or sabotage institutions, just used an advantage they had within it.

He would probably use executive action to gut DOJ (FBI), some agencies in DHS, and some agencies in DOD (CIA, NSA, DIA).

They also want to REIMPOSE Schedule F.


Sources close to former President Trump say he would immediately reimpose his "Schedule F" executive order if he takes back the White House in the 2024 presidential elections, Axios' Jonathan Swan reports.

Why it matters: It would effectively upend the modern civil service, and put future presidents in the position of bringing in their own loyalists or reverting to a traditional bureaucracy, Swan reports.

The backstory on Schedule F​

Trump signed an executive order in October 2020 which established a new Schedule F employment category for federal employees.

  • It was rescinded by President Biden shortly after he took office in 2021.
  • But back in March of 2022, Trump floated the possibility of going after the federal workforce.
  • "We will pass critical reforms making every executive branch employee fireable by the president of the United States," he said at a rally in South Carolina. "The deep state must and will be brought to heel."

Who would be reassigned as Schedule F​

Tens of thousands of civil servants who serve in roles deemed to have some influence over policy would be reassigned as "Schedule F" employees.

Those levels of influence included "confidential, policy-determining, policy-making or policy-advocating," the order says.

What it means to be given a Schedule F assignment​

They would lose their employment protections upon re-assignment, making them functionally at-will employees and therefore far easier to fire, Gov Exec reports.

How many people Schedule F would affect​

It could apply to as many as 50,000 federal workers out of a workforce of more than 2 million, Swan reports.

How is this different from regular presidential appointees?​

New presidents typically get to replace more than 4,000 so-called "political" appointees to oversee the running of their administrations.

But below this rotating layer of political appointees sits a mass of government workers who enjoy strong employment protections and typically continue their service from one administration to the next regardless of the president's party affiliation.
