You remember the constitution where it delineates federal powers.

Yes, it also states that the powers of the federal government are few and limited in scope (Madison).

Some of those require bodies in place.

If it's not Constitutional, it's prohibited.

THE PARENT AGENCY FOR THE BOP IS DOJ, NOT HOMELAND SECURITY.

The DOJ itself was created under the Grant administration. Not a Constitutional entity.

To: Extremely Extreme Extremist

you’re missing the point. carrying out powers often requires employees. My comment mentioned the delineated and I do not include those employees. I specifically gave examples of departments I would close. All you have to do to cleanse yourself of spin is o say, yes there are essential employees beyond the military and yes the BOP is not in Homeland security. Do those two things and I absolve you of your errors.
