Along with the Energy Dept...except for a smaller “atomic energy” department.

Trump is going to need a lot more protection.

If you want to absolutely panic the deep state, audit where ALL of the money goes. A full audit. Every unrecognized account or entity to be fleshed out and investigated.

It would be an enormous goose chase, if the bureaucracy works anything like how I suspect it does though.

No way they can let Trump takes office after he wins the election.

They know they will all be headed for supermax cells.

I will save them time and money: over each of the next ten years, spending/borrowing will decrease by 5% each year.

There should be a ‘Clean Slate’ where they start over with EVERYTHING.

Get rid of the Dept of Education and Dept of Energy for starters. Check out all of the empty govt buildings and see who is listed as working there getting a paycheck and let them go.

> Eliminate the Department of Education… <

Yep. The federal government should have zero say when it comes to education policies. That should be a state issue.

And if a state policy is clearly unconstitutional, let the Department of Justice handle it.

Side note: Here’s one trick the Feds pull: “States, you can control your own schools. But if you want federal grant money, you must do exactly as we say.”

This too has got to stop.

Well, I am old enough to remember the “Grace Commission”,
and how the vast majority of the report’s recommendations
were rejected by Congress.

Will that include an audit of the Federal Reserve and the IRS? I know, the Federal Reserve is not an official entity of the Federal government but it is the nucleus of this country’s financial system. It too needs to be dissolved.

We can easily wipe out 3/4 of all alphabet agencies and be just fine.
Doing this would save us billions upon billions every year. Probably into the trillions because of the fraud, waste, and abuse these people think up constantly.

Sounds good but the government is so vast and deep a true audit would extend far beyond a Trump presidency. The longer it takes the more chance of accountants and auditors getting paid off or intimidated.

Maybe a more effective course would be to focus on only one alphabet agency and get rid of it. Most people say Dept of Education.

If that was the only thing the trump administration accomplished it would be a HUGE step to fixing this country.

Aren’t federal agencies already audited ? Whether they pass or not is a different matter.

I am a big fan of Trump doing this, but not sure why he wants to telegraph this before the election. I don’t think it gains him any votes, and may further resolve the cheat.

On the other hand, IF he gets in and proceeds with an audit, he has the high ground of saying its a campaign promise.

Put Elon in a room with the Constitution written on one wall, and a list of Government agencies on another. He’ll know what to do.
When he’s done, I suspect a 90-98% reduction in Government size, scope, and cost could come out of it.
Please let it be so!
