Not sure if you remember the GSA got caught at a lavish Vegas trip spent 800k on sushi and a clown. All those people who they said were fired got their jobs back with interest and back pay. None were ever let go this is why we only see a few penny's per dollar of our tax money actually used as a service for the public..
"At the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), red tape is preventing the removal of a top level employee accused of viewing porn two to six hours a day while at work, since 2010. Even though investigators found 7,000 pornographic files on his computer and even caught him watching porn, he remains on the payroll."
Congress just voted on legislation stripping away collective bargaining and due process rights of all employees of the VA making it an "At Will" employer. One congressman said the bill "didn't go far enough in punishing the 'rank and file.'" Well it's not the rank and file ****ing things up, it's the managers and the executives.
But if an employee is seen or overheard anywhere saying anything not politically correct they'll be fired in a wink. No one should be fired for that in the first place in the supposedly land of free speech.
My wife is an executive employee of the GSA (GS-14). I know for a fact that you can be fired from the government. Your ducks have to be in a row before doing it, but it can be done.
Per political correct how fireable someone is depends almost entirely on how PC someone is and therefore what race and gender and sexual orientation they are. White and male very fireable but would likely only be hired if he was progressive liberal party member or gay. Black female very unfireable and you would really have to get the goods on her unless she was a rare conservative.

Such a ridiculous and predictable narrative. Most of my VA is white males and most of them are quite conservative.

If you think that white males in government service are easily fired, you have obviously NEVER worked in the Civil Service.

Most of the military is white and conservative but that tells you nothing about the rest of the government and progressive corporations. You should take a look at the rest of the government agencies in the lower 48 states. Some of the agencies over hire black by 400% and even 800%.
The government's official statistics show a pattern of "un-hiring" and "retiring" white males and other non-preferred groups while overhiring blacks and other preferred groups by dozens or hundreds of percent above their proportion in the civilian work force. It is alright for the feds to violate the AA creed of "proportional representation" as long as the disproportion favors certain races.
This year's OPM report -- covering federal Fiscal Year 2006 -- among other things boasts that the feds hired 6,912 new minorities last year while at the same time "dis-hiring" or "retiring" 6,280 white males and other non-preferred groups. As always, the OPM report is confounding in two regards. First, the OPM defines "women" as minorities which category includes women of all races including "white". Second, the OPM continues to refuse to publish any data whatsoever regarding employment of white males, and studiously avoids presenting data which depicts the decrease in employment of white males and other non-preferred groups.
From FY 2001 through FY 2006 a net total of 48,033 new minority employees have been hired by the feds. During the same period there has been a net decrease of 3,960 white male employees in federal jobs.
The five "best" federal executive departments for overhing blacks were HUD (363%), the Dept. of Education (329%), the Dept. of State (231%), the Labor Dept. (176%), and the Veteran's Administration (147%).
All the agencies and departments do with the exception of the department of the interior.
