Everything to know about the April 8 eclipse in Atlantic Canada | SaltWire #eclipse #atlanticcanadaWASHINGTON - The Biden administration on Thursday issued final rules meant to protect the jobs of the government's 2.2 million civil servants, as Republican challenger Donald Trump plans to replace thousands with hardline loyalists if he returns to the White House.
That would give him the power to potentially fire tens of thousands of career, nonpolitical workers and bring in loyalists willing to implement far-right policies and his self-described"retribution" agenda against those he feels have wronged him. "This final rule honors our 2.2 million career civil servants, helping ensure that people are hired and fired based on merit and that they can carry out their duties based on their expertise and not political loyalty," said Office of Personnel Management Director Kiran Ahuja, in a statement.
Last year, two judges on the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals wrote that a president should have broad powers to fire government workers.
