Donald Trump Renews Pledge to Purge Administrative State Employees if Reelected
Breitbart ^ | 07.17.2023 | WENDELL HUSEBØ

If former President Donald Trump wins reelection in 2024, he will work to deconstruct the administrative state, the apparatus of unelected bureaucrats in federal agencies who write binding rules with, without, or against the law.

The administrative state uses its rule-making ability to essentially usurp the separation of powers between the three branches of government by creating a so-called fourth branch of government not created by the Constitution. Nearly 2 million federal government employees in federal agencies make up the administrative state.

Trump refers to the administrative state as the “swamp” and the “deep state.”

“We will demolish the deep state,” Trump vowed at a Michigan rally in June. “We will expel the warmongers from our government. We will drive out the globalists. We will cast out the communists, Marxists and fascists. And we will throw off the sick political class that hates our country.”

A little experience with the depths of the corruption is eye opening. I don't think anyone really believed just how corrupt our government is, and we know about 1% of it.

Exactly!

Anyone leaving out that context is dishonest.

The Deep State is so vast, worldwide and entrenched... he doesn’t stand a chance. I don’t want to see him assassinated like some/many have been.

I guess you have to be part of the deep state to know the deep state. No outsiders are welcome.

I had some involvement with the tool used here.

Congress passed a law in the early 90’s that after the unelected bureaucrats had interpreted the law it was supposed to go back to Congress for final approval. If it wasn’t done, the reg was gone.

This still takes time but Trump and his team used it effectively. There was just so damn much to be done.

Trump and his team were good executives.

Now remember the paperwork reduction act under Reagan? Let’s get back to original intent instead of just rubber stamp approval of all forms.

Comments like this from Trump will mean voter fraud through the roof and the GOP saying we don’t see evidence of fraud.

He didn’t do it when he had a chance. In fact, he picked some of the creeps we have now...for example, Wray.

You need a big sword to gut a big fish. So far all we have seen are butter knives.

The Deep State deserves much more than a mere firing.

I would love to see him take a step further and have them all executed. /spit

Trump and his team were good, but he ran into a glacier rather than an iceberg.

This time through I’m hoping globull warming melts the glacier.

We need a GOP house and Senate to on Jan XX 20xx, pass a law that suspends all federal civil service protections for two years, and beyond that, civil service protections do not protect federal jobs in federa; departments or agencies being eliminated, so a second law needs to eliminate Dep Ed, HUD and dozens of other needles bureacratic holdouts.

Trump can’t do it alone. Each and every one of us needs to get involved.

Last time we expected him to do it alone.
