Unfortunate News For National Security Council (NSC) Staff
Wednesday, January 15, 2025
This is pretty unfortunate news (if it is true) -
Trump team is questioning civil servants at National Security Council about commitment to his agenda
I get that your appointed leaders & those who need Congressional should be committed to your agenda/vision/direction/etc., but applying this type of "loyalty test" to those in the civil service is really short-sighted and potentially risky.
Surrounding yourself with a bunch of "YES" men and women has not been a historically successful leadership strategy.
The current Civilian Oath Of Office should be enough:
I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.
