Tess Owen: #tRrump loyalists plan to name and shame ‘blacklist’ of federal workers: AAF to publish dossiers of employees they consider hostile to ex-president, with goal of ultimately replacing them
"Armed with rhetoric about the 'deep state', a conservative-backed group is planning to publicly name and shame career government employees that they consider hostile to Donald Trump.
This “blacklist” of civil servants, which will be published online, is intended to advance Trump’s broader goals, which, if elected, include weeding out government employees and replacing them with loyalists.
The group behind the list is the American Accountability Foundation (AAF), which was founded in 2020 and describes its mission as “working non-stop to expose the left’s secrets and hold Biden accountable”. A 2022 New Yorker profile described AAF as a 'conservative dark-money group” and “slime machine'."
