THREAD: More than a dozen Trump political appointees have secured civil service positions inside same agencies they were helping to run. nbcwashington.com/news/politics/…

Here are some: Chief of Staff - Veterans Health Administration 1/
Principal Director - US Fish and Wildlife Service
Deputy Assistant Attorney General
Senior Advisor - Immigration and Customs Enforcement
Counselor - US Secretary of Interior
Exec Asst. - Commissioner of CPSC
Deputy Solicitor - US Dept of Interior
Counsel - Office of Legal Policy - US Dept of Justice
Office of Asst. Secretary - US Dept of Labor (Untitled Official)
SEVEN- political appointees - US Dept of Justice. Still working to find the names
This makes these Trump politicos very difficult to remove in a Biden Administration.
