Staff Reports
In yet another bold move against the entrenched bureaucratic elite, the Trump administration is setting its sights on shaking up the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Administrator Lee Zeldin has taken decisive action by putting dozens of EPA staffers on administrative leave. Why? Because these bureaucrats might have been working against the very policies the American people voted for.
The revelation came on the heels of an investigation into whether these employees were undermining the administration’s energy dominance agenda. A paltry figure, some might say—just 140 out of 15,000 staffers—but symbolic of a more significant rot within the system. The tentacles of the deep state reach far and wide.
It’s no secret that within the ranks of these institutions lurk individuals more loyal to their own ideological crusades than to the country’s elected leaders. Some staffers reportedly hijacked their titles to push partisan politics, a blatant betrayal of public trust. Seems like these government employees forgot their job isn’t to play politics, but to serve the American people.
But this isn’t just about a few bad apples. Remember, this development comes in the shadow of accusations thrown at Lee Zeldin himself, criticisms echoing familiar tunes of the left’s hypocrisy. They accused him of doing what Democratic leaders like Michael Regan did without so much as a slap on the wrist. Where was the outrage then?
Zeldin’s commitment to the agency’s true mission speaks volumes. He’s reaching out to the vast majority of EPA employees who are ready to protect the environment and uphold the administration’s agenda. The real crime here is not his actions, but the left’s predictable uproar whenever their grip on power is threatened.
It’s high time someone stood up to the bureaucrats, who believe they know better than the citizens who put this administration in place. Who will they answer to next if this goes unchallenged? Maybe the next time American voices demand change, the cries of resistance won’t fall on deaf ears buried deep in red tape. Will the real patriots please stand up?
