Under the Radar Hirings at the Trump White House: Scary Stuff
Very interesting article from Pro Publica below. Look and read what hirings the White House is able to push through because these positions do not require Senate Confirmation. Now nepotism is nothing new to government and neither is the placement of an individual who is not remotely qualified for the position being assigned. But recent developments may take this to new levels as the new hires include a collection of Obama Birthers, Surrivalists, former lobbyists, campaign loyalists, and a person who just graduated from high school in 2015. Not exactly draining the swamp.
