Trump Fired A Corrupt VA Official. Then The VA Stepped In And Said Not So Fast
A notoriously corrupt Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) manager fired in the first day of President Donald Trump’s presidency — to rousing acclaim from veterans who heralded it as a sign of lasting reform — has been returned to work by VA officials after he filed a civil-service protections appeal.
Mr. Hamlin subsequently appealed his removal to the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB), and because of particulars in his case that remains under active litigation, he was brought back to work at VA,” spokesman James Hutton told The Daily Caller News Foundation.
Hamlin was fired Jan. 20, the day of President Trump’s inauguration. But numerous employees of the Puerto Rico VA told TheDCNF they were shocked and disgusted to see him return to the facility this month.
VA lawyers were coy, writing on May 9 that “No, Mr. Hamlin is certainly not back on his job… we are waiting on a new hearing date from the judge at the moment.”
But pressed to explain the sightings, Hutton acknowledged he was “brought back to work at VA.” Hutton did not say what his job title is, but he is not listed as the hospital’s director.

This happens all the time with unions. In New York City, I believe, they call it "The Rubber Room" where union teachers are waiting the outcome of grievance filings. They come to "work" but can't do anything but read the paper or a book or just sleep. I forget the number but it was a relatively large number of teachers doing virtually nothing but getting paid to do it.
Isn't America great ?????????? :thatsright:
City pays exiled teachers to snooze as ‘rubber rooms’ return

...............The city’s infamous rubber rooms have rebounded.
In one of the “reassignment centers,” 16 exiled educators sit in a city Department of Education building in Long Island City, Queens, including a dozen packed into one room — where they do virtually no work.
They listen to music, do crossword puzzles, chat — and as this exclusive Post photo reveals, doze on the taxpayer’s dime.
They mainly just kill time to get through a six-hour, 20-minute day.
“I’m so exhausted from being in this place doing nothing,” one said.

They should take him out back and shoot him. It solves the problem and sends a message.
