The Swamp is betting that despite DOGE and all the recent hype, Congress will always acquiesce to any new spending and the swamp grift will aways be protected.
Given the past 6 decades of US Government history and behavior, its not an illogical assumption.
Almost all of the day to day management of the Executive Branch is in the Executive Branch.
That includes detailing federal managers and employees to the new HQ in the Aleutians with no Wifi or computers or cell phones—as just one example.
Congress can hold hearings and whine about it if they wish—but meanwhile those employees that remain are freezing their tails off in the Great North.
Lol.
