“And so the walkbacks begin.”
Puleeze....Who does Perry work for? I believe his name is President-Elect Donald Trump.
Who sets policy? Why Mr Trump will. Perry will implement Trump’s policy.
Nothing has been “walked back” until you hear it from President Trump’s mouth or his press secretary.
I am not worried about Perry, who IS in fact walking back his call for the end of the department. The DOE has many powerful people who benefit by its existence and they are squeezing anyone they can to squeak on the department’s behalf. Like you, I have faith in Trump’s desire to start cutting off the rotted pieces of this government. Perry gave his lip service and that is that.
T minus 25 hours and it will be glorious!
