Todd Talk: Accountability Is Not Radical: Bureaucrats Aren’t the Boss

A 60-second conservative commentary with humor and heart.

My friends, yesterday the Wall Street Journal reported something that should have been standard procedure for decades. The Trump administration is working to make it easier to fire high-ranking career officials who refuse to do their jobs.

The idea is simply this. If your role is to carry out the administration’s policies, and you choose to obstruct, delay, or undermine them, you can be shown the door. That’s not radical. That’s accountability. Most Americans don’t have lifetime immunity at work. If you’re insubordinate in the private sector, you’re fired. Period.

In the executive branch, the ultimate boss is the President of the United States. Not a bureaucrat. Not a committee. If these rules take effect, people who won’t do the job can be terminated. And that’s a good thing.
