Trump is politicizing veterans judges

He’s doing this with Social Security judges too. He treats everything as partisan.

This will do long-term damage to the country. When the Democrats are in charge, should we reasonably expect them to go back to a non-partisan process?

"I’ve never seen these positions politicized."

The Trump administration appears to be rejecting veterans judges from traditionally nonpartisan roles after asking their party affiliation https://t.co/4QHezoWmiB pic.twitter.com/v6koGORdQf

As Deputy Secretary of Labor, I was involved in the hiring/promotion of many career employees, including administrative judges. I never asked anyone about their party affiliation. What Trump Admin. is doing is unprecedented and harmful to veterans (cc @Reinlwapo) https://t.co/95H6DDyQGl
