Trump revokes his lobbying ban on former White House staffers just hours before his administration leaves office

Two crossed lines that form an 'X'. It indicates a way to close an interaction, or dismiss a notification.President Trump has revoked his own rule which prevented political officials from lobbying their former colleagues in one of his last acts as president.

Trump originally imposed a lobbying ban in January 2017, just weeks after took office having pledged to "drain the swamp." The president's decision follows reports that Trump administration staffers are struggling in their search for jobs.

"Employees and former employees subject to the commitments in Executive Order 13770 will not be subject to those commitments after noon January 20, 2021,", meaning the order will take effect at the same time Biden is scheduled to be inaugurated on Wednesday. It means that appointees in the Trump administration would be able to take up often-lucrative lobbying jobs in Washington, DC, immediately.

Trumps gates should have said: MRGA - Make Russia Great Again because that is his true legacy to the US and the rest of the world!

Isn’t the left working hard on making sure they don’t get jobs anywhere? Isn’t already a list against them? I support his decision, only the left can lobby?

wow
