Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth (Eat It, Bitch McConnell) Reverses Insubordinate Malicious Compliance from Woke Air Force Official

"Malicious compliance" is a noted pathology in the workplace and in the military (where I think the term originated). The term describes the tactic used by insubordinate or just malevolent underlings who deliberately pervert the plain meaning of an order either because they don't like the order or just want to harm the organization that pays them, but don't want to risk open insubordination. They give the order a twisted "interpretation" in order to make the organization look bad and to create a backlash against the order and the person giving the order.

A "former intel officer" posted advice in how to engage in illegal insubordination against the duly-elected chief executive, instructing military personnel to violate the Commander-in-Chief's orders while "leaving no trace."

She calls malicious compliance "strategic interpretation."

All of these tactics are just cause for firing.

The Air Force just did this with respect to Trump's order to end DEI cult teachings in the government. The Air Force engaged in malicious compliance to embarrass Trump and force him to keep DEI by claiming that the order meant that the Air Force could no longer teach about the Tuskegee Airmen.

Ron DeSantis noted that that's what insubordinate officials did in Florida when he instructed schools to stop teaching kindergarteners about sex and "gender." The officials began banning classics like Little Women, claiming that that's how they read the order.

Then they immediately called a reporter to tell them about their own decision to ban Little Women, shrieking, "Look at this outrage! Ron DeSantis forced me to censor Little Women! Won't someone think of the children!"

Pete Hegseth has now reversed this malicious compliance insubordination.

But that's not enough. The people involved need to be fired. We only have four years of Trump, and we cannot have every single order subverted, undermined, and twisted by hardcore partisan staffers in government -- especially in our military.

Firings, and maybe mass-firings, are necessary.

A former worker with the Army Corps of Engineers talks about how lazy bureaucrats use their "work"-from-home benefits to completely blow off work, not even bothering to sign into the office's computers when "working" from home:

Meanwhile, Politico is sad about DC bureaucrats who might be forced to come into work after a three year holiday.

Obviously, they weren't at all sad about people, such as coal miners, who "resisted" "reskilling" from their old stupid jobs.
