And then they will hire contractors and consulting services that cost twice as much to backfill critical services, further enriching themselves. They are remarkably stupid. Putin loves this.

Stupid from the point of view of the Americans who are paying for it ( not the millionaires/billionaires), smart from the point of view of the many millionaires and billionaires who will set up staffing services, hiring the same people back at lower $, but charging us (the taxpayers) double.
That sounds remarkably smart for the dozen or so people who will get the appropriation to backfill with their contractors. I mean, the taxpayer is going to pay more for people who are essentially temps in these jobs, but the folks getting rich are going to make out wonderfully.
