Do you think there’s going to be a “what did you do during the war?” intergenerational reckoning about people who volunteered to do things like this?

It's impossible to get a job at EPA without expressing Democratic party allegiance. Is that legal?

I read an article about this, and it included interviews with some employees from previous administration who were never asked about their affiliation in any way.


What is the support for your assertion that it is illegal?


Hatch Act. Government employees must serve the law, not partisan politics.

Liberty University is just the messenger her.

Clearly not illegal for federal appointees. DH was up for a very high level position within DoD. He has never posted anything political on any social media, was extremely well qualified, and got through all gatekeepers until the final one where they do a search to make sure that you are a Trump supporter. Meaning posting pro Trump, liking pro Trump postings, donating. Failed on that. Post is still open 6 months later.


He should sue them. How is this legal for any job, especially a federal one?!

Exactly. And no respectable law firm nor company will hire you with a law degree from Liberty. It's well-known to be a MAGA breeding ground. A high school friend's daughter is getting an online degree from Liberty. And she's nuts.

Liberty University’s law school sent students an email about summer internships and said the most important thing is that applicants “MUST be aligned politically with President Trump and his administration.”

The email told students that “GPA is not a strong factor.”

Students who get interviews will reportedly face traditional questions along with political ones, including whether they voted for Trump, whether they disagree with him on anything, and what they think about specific executive orders.

With the current hiring climate AND Trump eliminating DEI bc meritocracy should be the only consideration….

Thoughts?


It's Liberty University, what do you expect?


I expect any internship to value academics and experience.
