This change was implemented amid concerns about political appointees publicly supporting Trump or criticizing opponents, which has raised issues of impartiality. The directive, signed by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, broadens existing restrictions by prohibiting the mention of department titles or the reposting of official government communications. This aims to maintain the department's efficiency and professional integrity, reflecting a significant shift in the administration's approach to employee expression online.
