Over 70 Obama Appointees are ‘Burrowed' in Government Jobs
2017-10-01
[LI] Have you suspected there are still people embedded in the government who worked for Obama and might not share President Trump’s vision for America? You were right. In fact, there are quite a few of them.
Gov't Burrowing: The transfer of a political appointee from a political appointment position to permanent federal employee position just prior to the change of an political administration. Oftentimes the position is created specifically for the former appointee or, 'pre-selection' is used to effect the transfer to an existing position. 'Pre-selection' is supposed to be against Federal Civil Service hiring and recruitment rules.
