Whistleblower protection

The War on Whistleblowers was one of the biggest disappointments with Obama’s governments - and, shortly before he leaves office - one of the democratic senators (most likely with the knowledge of Obama) introduces a bill to enhance whistleblower protection for contractor and grantee employees.

The US government had 8 years to think about this, it is fucking late to decide that something went horribly wrong…

It’s still fair to blame him. Hell, they blame Obama for 9/11. Probably Whitewater too.
