Control is a pretty strong word. Do you really mean that the civil servants should be in control even with Obama or Kamala as our president?

That's their default position - yes. This way even when democrats lose elections they still get to have their stuff enabled.

It's one of the many Calvinball contradictions of the left. On the one hand shout We believe in Democracy! but when the time comes to accept that the government's positions will change then the Civil Service is now a sacrosanct 4th branch of government (to those who doubt that, go read the ACLU's suit from last week).
