President Joe Biden is reportedly attempting to single out and remove federal bureaucrats appointed by and loyal to former President Trump. Before leaving the White House, Trump appointed a number of his supporters to different government positions, a common act known as “burrowing.” However, since becoming President Biden has worked tirelessly to dismantle Trump’s prior achievements and is now setting his focus on removing those he believes may interfere with his agenda.

According to reports from The Daily Wire:

The Biden administration is now reportedly pursuing Trump supporters within the federal government, and outside experts are encouraging the attempted purge by suggesting Trump loyalists within the federal government are a “threat to democracy.”

“Under the guise of stopping a ‘deep state’ coup that never existed, Trump appears to have tried to create a deep state of his own,” newyorker.com Executive Editor David Rohde, author of “In Deep: The FBI, the CIA, and the Truth about America’s ‘Deep State’” told NBC News. Rhode added that Trump’s “burrowing” represented “an existential threat to democracy.”

Project on Government Oversight public policy director Liz Hempowicz added: “Not to be hyperbolic, but the damage some of these people could do is enormous.”

The administration “is conducting a thorough review of several councils, commissions, and advisory boards,” a White House official told NBC. “As part of that review, we may remove individuals whose continued membership on the board would not serve the public interest.”

This is only the latest move from Democrats to paint Republicans as “dangerous.” After Election Day, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted that Trump supporters should be cataloged in a database in case they ever attempt to “downplay” their support of the former president.
