Long but interesting article from Axios on the behind-the-scenes machinations on getting the Trump-team and associated support ready for a Trump second term (2025).

You'll need to look past Axios' obvious TDS and biased writing, but the material is interesting. Their bias is on display in their headline and many other places.

"A radical plan for Trump’s second term"

"The reporting for this series draws on extensive interviews over a period of more than three months with more than two dozen people close to the former president, and others who have firsthand knowledge of the work underway to prepare for a potential second term. Most spoke on condition of anonymity to describe sensitive planning and avoid Trump’s ire." (Italics are mine - lmc)

The "radical" part of the plan is to resurrect "Schedule F" that Trump put in an EO and Biden cancelled, which allows easier replacement of up to about 50,000 bureaucrats.

Sounds completely reasonable to me. If you're going to drain the swamp, you actually have to get rid of them.

Aha, I was going to post that later today. Excellent. Axios fears of course, in 2025. I think much sooner. I saw it here:

“Former President Trump’s top allies are preparing to radically reshape the federal government if he is re-elected, purging potentially thousands of civil servants and filling career posts with loyalists to him and his “America First” ideology, people involved in the discussions tell Axios.”

Awesome. 😎

“The heart of the plan is derived from an executive order known as “Schedule F,” developed and refined in secret over most of the second half of Trump’s term and launched 13 days before the 2020 election.”

‘Schedule F (The Deep State)’

The knives of the World Swamp are out, for Trump. Axios writers line up to sharpen their pen knives. A good example, elements of drama, fear and “flagellation” for rousing the troops to burn and pillage— metaphorically
speaking, of course. 🤫

The choke collar placed upon American production,
manufacturing, self-reliance and Education has “fundamentally transformed” the Republic and paralyzed the populace.
These effects must be preserved.

But, but, but....are there actually enough lamp-posts?
