President Trump has said over and over that he wants to "drain the swamp." But is it a swamp or an ocean? It’s about time the American people had some hard facts regarding the federal bureaucracy. In Adam Andrzejewski’s Operation Drain the Swamp, he exposes who receives how much, where they work, and what they do. Most importantly, he reveals how much these bureaucrats cost the American taxpayer.

• In the swamp, six figure salaries are the norm; there are 78 agencies where the average salary is $100,000 or more;
• Federal bureaucrats are paid $1.1 million every minute, $65.6 million every hour, and over half a billion dollars per day;
• In 2016, there were more than 330,000 disclosed federal bonuses paid;
• There are more than 35,000 lawyers in the administrative state. The army of lawyers in the employ of the federal government assures that no aspect of American life is untouched by the swamp’s appendages;
• The VA is offering anything but care for our great vets. While veterans were suffering at the hands of a broken bureaucratic machine, the VA doled out tens of thousands of undeserved performance bonuses: $150 million per year;
• From 2015 to 2016 the VA made 20,711 new hires, but just 2,091 were doctors, continuing the historical 10:1 doctor to non-doctor employee hiring ratio;
• In 2016, the VA employed 3,498 police officers at a total cost of $172 million - all names and locations of these officers, however, were redacted;
• The average physician at the VA makes around $205,000 a year, meaning the VA could employ 840 doctors instead of 3,498 police officers;
• ...and so much more!
