$20 Billion Hidden in the Swamp: Feds Redact 255,000 Salaries

"The only thing the bureaucratic resistance hates more than President Trump is the disclosure of their own salaries.

We’ve captured and posted online this data for the past 11 years. For the first time, we found missing information throughout the federal payroll disclosures."
