Here’s Neon Revolt regarding the long post on 5/7 #1318-it
has a link to the Federal register - I excerpted the reorg and budget part of the analysis:
See that lower box on the left: Reorg Exective Order?
That refers to this executive order Trump signed on March 13, 2017:
Comprehensive Plan for Reorganizing the Executive Branch
Search, browse and learn about the Federal Register. Federal Register 2.0 is the unofficial daily publication for rules, proposed rules, and notices of Federal agencies and organizations, as well as executive orders and other presidential documents.
Federal Register
You really should take the time to read the EO, because it’s pretty significant. It put an aggressive timeline on the heads of each agency, requiring them to submit proposals for totally reorganizing their agencies.
It also gives Trump the ability to roll one agency into another, if he thinks it would better serve the people.
Likewise, this linked executive order gives the Office of Management and Budget the ability to issue a “scorecard” to each agency, every single quarter, to determine if its performance is up to par.
Each of the heads of these agencies had to submit a report within 180 days of the EO going into effect.
That means all these agencies all submitted reports to the Federal register. I couldn’t find them, even with all my searching prowess , but they have to exist, somewhere.
Not that I’m sure that matters, because, if we follow the flowchart, it all ends up in the 2019 Budget, anyway. More on that in a bit, because you can start to get a feel for things if you look at the 2018 Budget, also referenced in the flowchart above

More news on war in Syria from Thomas Wictor:
(1) How would you like to be an Iranian sent to Syria?
Strikes on al-Kiswah today.
Syria accuses Israel of striking military site south of Damascus
Air raid comes hours after IDF reports ‘abnormal’ activities by Iranian forces in Syria; explosion rocks el-Kiswah region, an area said to contain an Iranian base
https://www.timesofisrael.com/alleged-israeli-strike-reported-in-syria-after-idf-sounds-alarm-in-north/
(2) Al-Kiswah in October of 2017. Picture @ Wictor thread
(3) Al-Kiswah in 2018. Picture @ Wictor thread
(4) All the new structures have been leveled.
(5) So After Trump pulled out of the JCPOA, a bunch of Iranians were told, “Go back to al-Kiswah and see what happens.”
(6) Those Iranians and their Hezbollah allies are no longer with us.
NO LEARNING CURVE.
(7) This is why the mullahs will fall.
ALL THEIR MEN ARE SIMPLY CANNON FODDER.
(8) The ones sent back to al-Kiswah were obviously forced to go at gunpoint.
The safe, rich, corrupt mullahs are squandering the lives of their forces.
That is building a LOT of resentment.
(9) And as a result, the security forces are already helping the mullahs’ enemies.
So stay tuned...

Have any of you had to have an encounter with one of your county/city/township government officials or support personnel? Have you ever noticed that sometimes they act as though you're interrupting their nail-filing session to make them work?
That is how it looks to us, Jane Q Public, on our side of the counter. How it looks to them is like this:
“I've had this job for 20 years. I am going to get a raise. When Lucy retires, I'll get her job. They owe it to me. I hope our new contract gives us Black Friday off. These stupid citizens think they're going to cut the budget and eliminate my position? No way! I will make my job essential. Maybe I'll even work it so Lucy has to retire early, just so I can get her job and sit in her chair and get her money and benefit plan until I can retire, with even more of a benefits package that I have now. No sir, no one is gonna take my job, my position, my prestige or my package away from me!”.
Ok, take off the small-town-ness of the above. Pretend it's anyone who is high up in the gov’t. They want their money and their recognition.
Trump's proposed changes threaten all of them. He could say “we don't need 40 park rangers in BFE, let's just cut that program. Or, maybe I'll fire 20 of them and their boss, and send the other 20 to another park and another already there boss.”
People get awful territorial and protective and squirrely when they think their position might be on the line. Some of them get up to some mighty scurrilous activities to protect their place. It is, after all, all about the money.
Thanks for your important post and link.
