Give me a break.

I've worked as a DOD contractor for years.

I also briefly worked as a non-scheduled GS employee earlier this year.

The difference was night and day. I can't recall a single case where civilian DOD / IC employees, military members, or even other DOD contractors considered themselves as anything other than employees who were to do the work, as directed by their superiors and the executive branch under whom they served.

The federal employees during my GS gig, on the other, absurdly considered themselves as defenders of their own subjective liberal agendas and ethics. It was openly discussed how to effectively sabotage exec orders with which they did not agree when Trump took over.

I quietly quit when it was apparent they were willing to destroy their whole department instead of actually doing the work they were assigned.

Honestly, from my time with the Feds, this seems to be pretty standard for many federal agencies completely controlled by liberal DC workers, including the EPA, State, etc.

Even the Feds who were not political were mostly overpaid and completely incompetent if they'd been a gov worker for more than a few years.
