Former President Trump’s top allies are preparing to radically reshape the federal government if he is re-elected, purging potentially thousands of civil servants and filling career posts with loyalists to him and his "America First” ideology, people involved in the discussions tell Axios.
The impact could go well beyond typical conservative targets such as the Environmental Protection Agency and the Internal Revenue Service. Trump allies are working on plans that would potentially strip layers at the Justice Department — including the FBI, and reaching into national security, intelligence, the State Department and the Pentagon, sources close to the former president say.
During his presidency, Trump often complained about what he called “the deep state.”
The heart of the plan is derived from an executive order known as “Schedule F,” developed and refined in secret over most of the second half of Trump’s term and launched 13 days before the 2020 election.
The reporting for this series draws on extensive interviews over a period of more than three months with more than two dozen people close to the former president, and others who have firsthand knowledge of the work underway to prepare for a potential second term. Most spoke on condition of anonymity to describe sensitive planning and avoid Trump’s ire.

Hope he does a better job than in his first term.
Sounds like a pretty good plan. It’s a whole lot better to radically reshape the federal government than to radically reshape the United States.
Great idea but pure fiction at this point until I hear it from the man himself.
Why would Trump pick better people?
Look at his endorsementsfor this fall and know he is still supporting RINOs and Democrats (light)
You mean like all those Assistant Democrats that Trump has endorsed for this fall?
Yeah, those guys.
