Donald Trump is gearing up for his second term, and his plans are already shaking the halls of power in Washington, D.C. He’s vowed to drain the “corrupt swamp” in the nation’s capital, and Democrats are scrambling.
This week, Trump scored a major victory with the resignation of FBI Director Christopher Wray, a high-profile figure some say epitomized the deep-state establishment. Wray’s departure sent shockwaves through the political establishment. If the FBI’s top dog is bolting, what does that say about the rest of the swamp creatures?
And it’s not just Wray. The mere prospect of Trump returning to office has reportedly caused panic among federal workers. According to Democratic Representative Seth Moulton, “thousands” of government employees are mulling their bleak options. With Trump set to reform D.C., they better get out now.
From Daily Caller:
Democratic Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton said Wednesday on CNN that he believes “thousands” of federal employees could submit their resignations by January due to President-elect Donald Trump’s victory in November…“I’ve heard from a lot of friends who work for the federal government trying to decide, do they wait to get fired? Do they resign on their own terms, as Chris Wray decided to do?
A Mass Exodus in the Making?
During an interview on CNN, Rep. Seth Moulton didn’t hold back his concerns. He warned that Wray’s resignation could be the first domino in a cascade of federal employee walkouts.
According to Moulton, workers across D.C. are debating whether to leave on their own terms or wait until Trump shows them the door. “It’s a sad state of affairs,” he said.
Boo-hoo, Seth. Democrats like you have been robbing Americans blind for decades. It’s about time your party is over.
When you hear people like Moulton crying on TV, you should get very happy.
Moulton’s claims aren’t just speculation. Trump’s victory has spooked bureaucrats in agencies ranging from the FBI to the Department of Health and Human Services.
With names like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Kash Patel set to join Trump’s team, many fear a sweeping purge is on the horizon.
Wray’s Resignation: A Victory for Trump
Wray’s exit also highlights Trump’s broader strategy: replacing establishment figures with loyal reformers. Kash Patel, a key figure during Trump’s first term, is reportedly tapped to lead the FBI.
Predictably, this has the Democrats fuming. Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe even accused Trump of planning to “disrupt,” “dismantle,” and “distract” the agency. Translation: Trump is about to turn the FBI on its head, and the old guard isn’t happy about it.
Panic in the Swamp: Is Anyone Safe?
The Democrats aren’t just worried about Wray or Patel. They’re terrified that Trump’s cabinet picks signal a broader purge of career bureaucrats who have long held cushy jobs in the federal system.
For Trump’s critics, this is a nightmare. For his supporters, it’s Christmas morning.
Trump’s second-term agenda isn’t just about draining the swamp. It’s about reshaping it completely. He’s assembling a team of disruptors, not placeholders. From RFK Jr. to Pete Hegseth, these picks are a clear message to Washington: business as usual is over.
And the fear in D.C. is palpable. With Wray gone and rumors of more resignations on the way, Trump’s vision of a smaller, less corrupt federal government might just become reality.
Whether you call it “draining the swamp” or “terrifying bureaucrats,” one thing is clear: Trump’s return is going to be loud, messy, and absolutely fascinating.
Key Takeaways:
- Wray’s Resignation Rocks D.C.: The FBI director’s exit marks the start of Trump’s plans to overhaul federal agencies.
- Mass Exodus Feared: Thousands of federal workers may quit before Trump even takes office, according to Democratic Rep. Seth Moulton.
- Trump’s Swamp Drainage Begins: With bold cabinet picks and a no-nonsense approach, Trump is reshaping Washington—and the establishment is panicking.
