In 2020 we must not only drain a bigger swamp. We must get rid of the scum that rose to the top!

It will take a lot of hard work and dedication to rid the Federal agencies of the political appointments and permanent civil service position this administration had pushed to be hired.

A new President must therefore, have enough knowledge about or surround herself with people wha have inside experience with Executive agencies to be able to direct where the scum is located. The management of agencies to favor the privileged and to favor Russia and similar foreign ilk must be eliminated. We civil servants who hark back to Clinton era, "Puttin People First" when FEMA was clened up and made a first-rate resource for victims of natural disaters, when SSecurity employess were trained to better serve elderly constituents and more field offices were opened and more kiosk services were provided.

The Federal government is supposed to serve protect and serve the people...all the people. That sense of service has been lost over the past two years. It's been more like "screw the people."

Any hint of bribes, malfeasance, anything that can cause them to be impeached should be thoroughly investigated and acted on.
