In the latest in a long line of cynical, self-serving political moves, the Biden regime has issued a new rule aimed at immunizing the so-called “deep state” against future Republican presidential administrations. The rule, issued by the Office of Personnel Management, states that career bureaucrats have protected status that cannot be revoked, making it difficult for Republican presidents to run the government without being constantly undermined by employees of the executive branch. 

“Today, my Administration is announcing protections for 2.2 million career civil servants from political interference, to guarantee that they can carry out their responsibilities in the best interest of the American people,” President Joe Biden said in a statement last week. “This rule is a step toward combating corruption and partisan interference to ensure civil servants are able to focus on the most important task at hand: delivering for the American people.”
