Democrats Warn Trump’s Unelected Shadow Government Is Dismantling Their Unelected Shadow Government

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Alarm bells are sounding across the United States government, where Democrats are warning that President Trump's unelected shadow government is totally dismantling the unelected shadow government Democrats worked so hard to build.

After decades spent entrenching a bureaucracy dedicated to doing their bidding, Democrats have taken to the streets in protest of Trump hiring unelected officials to fire their unelected officials.

"We are literally watching Democracy crumble before our very eyes," said Senator Chuck Schumer, shouting outside shuttered USAID offices. "Elon Musk, who may I remind you is unelected, is coming in and demolishing these institutions of people that are unelected. It is just so not fair. Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Many are calling Elon Musk's employment in the government a Constitutional crisis, stating that other than the three million people already working for the government, the President hiring someone to do a job is simply unheard of. "Allowing an unelected official to work in the government is basically fascism," explained Treasury Department employee Arlene Magill. "We cannot allow a citizen like Musk to see what taxpayer money is spent on. Only the thousands of unelected employees who work at Treasury are allowed to do that."

At publishing time, Democrats had reminded everyone that the deep state they are fighting to save is not real.

Is it real, or is it Memorex?

This is about the same thing - the Bee is in danger of losing its status as a satirical publication.

Just as in his first term, the MSM-Democrats are pretending PDJT isn’t really President. He doesn’t have the power of an “actual” President, so everything he does is illegal and illegitimate.

Under Obama, the MSM-Ds were thrilled by the vast reach of his power. Remember “I have a pen, and I have a phone.”

And people thought the Babylon Bee would go out of business after having a tremendous four years mocking Biden.

Well, we still have a lot of Democrats hanging around to mock.

Well I wouldn’t say started. A lot of what they did in the past was prophetic.

A good rule of thumb these days is to replace the word “democracy” with “The Democrat Party” in any comments made buy the democrats.

If you do that- it all makes sense.

Our shadow government is better than their shadow government because ours is more efficient. Ours even has its own efficiency department, which is quite, dare I say, efficient, in exposing the corruption of their shadow government.

In other words, “Two can play at that game.”

People joke about this, but the idea that there is a shadow government running things behind the scenes is not a new one.

Lincoln also noticed it. I believe he was so aware of it because he was a primary active agent of it.

“I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. . . . corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed.”

—U.S. President Abraham Lincoln, Nov. 21, 1864
(letter to Col. William F. Elkins)

I know it’s the Bee, but if Schumer’s words are accurate, let’s remind him of all the unelected Obama czars, Fauxcahontas’s CFPB, the Federal Reserve, etc.

The Babylon Bee headlines are truer by far than anything from the MSM.
