That was a hell of a read!

...officials involved in the effort tell Axios.

So, they were not screened? lol

Exactly what the RATs have been doing.

[DeplorablePaul]

Good. Trump was surrounded by establishment traitors during his first admin. It will be good if he can hit the ground running. There are a lot of vermin to exterminate in the DC swamp.

[lurk]

Trump learned a lot in his first term. In every office lurk people who want him destroyed.

Hundreds of people are spending tens of millions of dollars to install a pre-vetted, pro-Trump army of up to 54,000 loyalists across government

So there's a plan to replace the unelected bureaucrats in the federal departments under the Executive Branch with people who might actually do what the president wants? Not seeing the problem here.

The only concerns I'd have are where do they find 54,000 competent people with nothing better to do than work for the federal government, and can we be sure that federal job protections won't keep the current Biden loyalists in their jobs?

Average American has to have a criminal background check, drug test and a min of two interviews before being hired for low wage work, so yeah, vet the heck out of those who would advise Donald Trump, please.

So, a president who uses executive orders for the purpose of attacking and crippling the American economy and for limiting freedoms of American citizens is perfectly A-Okay with the Axios bunch.

But a president who would limit government controls on freedom is executing a power grab.

When I see bilge like this, I wonder if there is even a shred of self-awareness in these people.

Do they really have no issue with the elimination of free speech (which pertains to political expression)? And no issue with the attempts to keep us dependent on public transportation so that our ability to go outside of our homes is limited? How about the efforts to stop us from traveling? What about the efforts to ban all gas appliances and force us all to use (vastly more expensive) electric ones? Or the efforts to force us all into rationed government controlled health care?

I’ll go with the freedom president, even if that means he’s going to grab power... by pushing back government to something that is less intrusive on our lives.

You’d think the dumb authors of the article actually believe that folks like Myorkas and not the White House are in charge of the border policies. What it is that they really believe is that federal agencies are unbiased and “independent”. LOL

[TomGuy]

Will he have as many czars as Obama had for his fundamentally changing the United States of America?

[ballplayer]

Yes it was ,here’s hoping it comes to pass! This would be FANTASTIC!

[NorthMountain]

Why it matters:

Does this kind of thing in supposed "news" articles strike anybody else as being manipulative and arrogant?

[wafflehouse]

[Spok]

This is the deep state preparing for its own survival. Nothing scares them more than a Trump presidency.

[joshua c]

cuz ya know

the biden administration

is just chock full of MAGA

[Boogieman]

“as part of an unprecedented operation to centralize and expand his power”

So “unprecedented” now means “something that every incoming President does (if he is smart)”?

[FroggyTheGremlim]

Axios makes this sound like a bad thing.

I say “Bring It On.”

[jimfree]

Kinda what the Dems have done for years. Let’s roll!

[stinkerpot65]

Democrat Kiddie Rapers are lying scum.
