It's possible -- and hear me out now -- it's possible nobody in the administration knows what's going on

Three days ago (!) NYT reported that the Education Department wanted to reopen negotiations with Harvard www.nytimes.com/2025/05/17/u...

“The fish rots from the head”

Very possible, especially if all policy is just instructions coming over encrypted channels from GRU handlers

aynrandysavage.bsky.social•13 days ago

The American people finally have an administration that represents them.

bearymom.bsky.social•13 days ago

Which does not belie the depths of their fascist intentions, merely the execution

bobstevenson.bsky.social•13 days ago

Possible and probable and likely!

captanne.bsky.social•13 days ago

Read my mind.

emigno.bsky.social•13 days ago

They’re all puppets of the Heritage Foundation. Everything being pushed through is Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025.

independentmedia.bsky.social•13 days ago

That's quite obvious that the people running the administration have no idea who is in charge, and what anyone is doing there.

I guess that happens when nobody tells the truth anymore.

anonymousvc.bsky.social•13 days ago

Certainly nobody at the NYT knows what's going on

junecasagrande.bsky.social•13 days ago

To be fair, public service isn't really their groove.

sciantixo.bsky.social•13 days ago

it is certain that rump does not know what he is signing.

pelledge.bsky.social•13 days ago

It's all at the whims of the leader. There can be no plans because it's completely up to his will.

dw54.bsky.social•13 days ago

Makes sense, after all the nobody who wrote the order doesn't know what Habeas Corpus means

kateleighferg.bsky.social•12 days ago

They have a destructive combination of incompetence and malice.

pdcisneros.bsky.social•13 days ago

The whole lot of them are inexperienced, inept, inane and incompetent.

napajudie.bsky.social•12 days ago

The right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing and none of them apparently even bother with the actual news.

osprey1460.bsky.social•13 days ago

That way they can honestly claim ignorance.

friendpanda.bsky.social•13 days ago

Not a one of them knows jack about anything. At all.

bdb-politics.bsky.social•13 days ago

tRump is the "decider" & he decides, what he decides, when he decides it until he decides it again. Anyone, literally anyone, who attempts to explain, predict, expand on, or argue what he has decided is on a fool's errand.

At best do what MPR, NPR & other good media do & simply report what he said.

lolapalooza-nyc.bsky.social•13 days ago

not just possible. probable.

19thgrade.bsky.social•13 days ago

Probable
No, Likely

anthonypooley.bsky.social•13 days ago

Surely you're not implying that they're a bunch of useless tossers...?

vvillyd.bsky.social•12 days ago

Isn't that kinda the point?

emer.net•13 days ago

Just generally. Ever. To be honest I’m surprised they have the brainpower to speak.

stfarris.bsky.social•13 days ago

Possible?

patrickhenry48.bsky.social•13 days ago

With incompetent sycophants in charge, chaos reigns.

jmr3.bsky.social•13 days ago

Seems to be the case

He’s distracting from the bond market. So he didn’t ask a soul until today.

alonpinkas.bsky.social•13 days ago

No shit

nanorich.bsky.social•13 days ago

This is personal with Trump..

vonmockery.bsky.social•13 days ago

duxsi.bsky.social•13 days ago

They're just grossly incompetent at being incompetent.

jrnewman42.bsky.social•13 days ago

I suspect their pool of potential competent appointees is small, since the competent ones may not want "Former Trump appointee" on their resume.

daveinmichigan.bsky.social•12 days ago

Normally one might call that an astute observation, but frankly, kind of a low bar with these people

timmaynardguitar.bsky.social•13 days ago

The Putin Plan does not require this, only that things get broken. Pretty good explanation for all of those unqualified agency heads, right?

thewarrenisempty.bsky.social•13 days ago

There is no coordinated action within this administration, just a bunch of roughly ideologically aligned individual power grabs.

chrisnesselrode.bsky.social•13 days ago

They just killed international exchange student programs for years to come. No one will want to come here and eventually other countries will return the favor. Global pariah.

nhughes18.bsky.social•13 days ago

It’s almost preferable to the alternative (that it’s a planned chaos with evil doing as the goal)
