In an interview, one White House aide described the elaborate steps he was taking to shield himself. Once he gets home in the evening, he turns off his work phone and stores it in a drawer because, he said, he believes it could be used to listen to him even when it’s off. If he makes a call during off-hours, he uses a separate, personal phone in an adjoining room, where the stowed work device wouldn’t be able to pick up his voice as clearly……..

Spending your time away from work to sift through your coworkers’ social media accounts to see who disagrees with you politically is both impressively paranoid and a reason civil service employees should be looking over their own shoulders constantly and refusing to call it paranoia—because the Trump people really are out to get them.

In addition to being afraid that the intelligence community and civil servants are out to get them, Trump’s staff are also engaged in constant infighting and suspicion of one another as they jockey for position. But that suspicion is probably justified, because all the evidence suggests that Trump’s White House is a snake pit stocked with every kind of venomous serpent. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2017/3/15/1643609/-Trump-White-House-is-a-pretty-hostile-environment-to-work-in-and-staff-are-getting-paranoid
