Jackson had accused the Adams bureaucracy of bribery and intervening against his victory during the campaign. As President, he ordered the dismissal of a large number of high-ranking government employees, including Washington bureau chiefs, land and customs agents, federal marshals, and lawyers. By "rotation of office," Jackson appeared to be purging the incompetence, laxity, and ignorance that came with long tenure and returning the potential for political service to the general public. Yet his haste and gullibility muddled his intentions.
