Those seeking a job in the federal government will now have to write an essay in support of Donald Trump's executive orders, according to a memo from the Office of Personnel Management.

Vince Haley, the White House's head of domestic policy, wrote in the May 29 memorandum that all civil service applicants must answer a series of essays as part of the job recruitment process, including one about how they would "help advance" Trump's policy priorities.

This has to be illegal.

Probably, but we're way past the point of the Trump regime ignoring all laws that disagree with it..

When the BBB passes it will be illegal for courts to enforce the law
