If you dismantle a statutorily established agency like USAID, fire all the staff, and strip it for parts, you may indeed make it practically infeasible to just restart it again when the courts hold all that was illegal a month or two later.

And if you can get executive agencies to pretend you have sweeping authority to impose tariffs for a few months, it’s a lot easier to frame as courts “taking away” that authority when they finally hold the whole thing was an illegal power grab.
3 months ago I was practically screaming, "this is a heist in progress, we need to act quickly." But the authorities were moving with all deliberate speed and now millions are going to die.
Damage has been done that will last for generations and this is scarcely been reported.
