“With those 14 words, the administration blew up 140 years of consensus, across the political parties, about the need for a technically expert, politically accountable civil service.”
Aarrrgh! The hubris.
"In high-speed power grab, trump succeeds in remaking government because Republicans are cowed and Democrats lack the imagination necessary to prevent it."
Nothing worse than a bunch of white male zealots congregating in the west wing. Add tech brohs hopped up on ketamine and you have DISASTER.
Are there any grownups left in DC besides democrats? Our country is about to burn down. Looking for 5-10 GOP to put country before party. Is there anyone?
Do MAGAS understand that they no longer matter to Trump/musk? It's going to be a shocking awakening for them. And the same for Republican politicians. "I don't need your votes".
This can't possibly be Trump. It has to be the folks running the Heritage Foundation. Trump is not bright enough to have put this plan together. He is their puppet, their mouthpiece.
We're too late, Keith. It is over. I'm not hopeful. And, I've been one of the warning crows and canaries in the coal mine since 2016. I sure hate being right. We're too late, Keith.
I used to think it’s impossible to find someone dumber than the orange guy in US government. But now I have found them. Hundreds of them. In the Congress. Giving up their power so that it will be given back to them.! LOL.
Musk/Vance/etc aren't trying to remake it. They are trying to eliminate it so they can have their goal of one CEO (dictator) in charge who will do the bidding of the rich. Rachel Maddow has the system figured out and it's terrifying. They have already started. https://youtu.be/wqWBM5Zs6YI
Of course it's true. Everything during the campaign indicated that was exactly they were about. This is a crew that has zero ethical concern and an existential motivation to seize every graspable lever possible and break everything not useful to them. Time is short.

Gotta make sure those social security checks go the shareholders, not the customers.
