The author obviously intends this to be a cautionary tale, but it gives me renewed hope for the future!

WOW! This is music to my ears!

First we need a massive purge of all the 3 letter agencies.

Then we need to start dismantling the Swamp. What does that mean? Send homeland security to Amarillo, Texas. Send agriculture to Iowa. Send the IRS to rural Wyoming. etc etc. Disperse various departments around the country. Do not let them congregate to form a central hub. The very fact that typical Swamp Creatures will recoil in horror at the idea of living in those places is a feature, not a bug. That means they will be less inclined to work for those agencies. Win-Win!

Pass a law that bars any military officer from working for or getting paid by a defense contractor for at least 10 years after his retirement. Abolish the department of Education. Eliminate the DC Circuit of the federal courts. Eliminate DC’s ability to affect national affairs by shrinking the federal district to just a very small area with the capital building, the White House and national monuments. Give the rest to Maryland which is already a hopeless anyway.

The Swamp has proven it is not capable of administering equal justice under law so the power to administer justice must be taken away from them.

A major reduction in the federal bureaucracy is overdue.

[Altura Ct.]

Let’s hope this is true. It is the only way we will survive.

Clean the fricken swamp.

[Savage Beast]

'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"

YES!

SAVE THE USA FROM DESTRUCTION!

MAGA!

MAKE SURE TRUMP IS RE-ELECTED!

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT'S NEEDED TO SAVE AMERICA!

[PGR88]

but it gives me renewed hope for the future!

Me too. I read it thinking: "Trump has finally learned its total war with the swamp, and doesn't expect to merely tame it through the force of his personality."

I have a question...
If congress sends a budget that allocates 100 billion for the, lets say, epa....
Does he have to spend all 100 billion?
Or can he just spend a portion of that 100 billion?

A quick way to reduce the size of fedzilla

[glaseatr]

I have hope that with Trumps re-election he tears the whole place down.

Armed with much more knowledge and more importantly with TIME. His wrecking ball could be quite a show.

Axios was the number one alternative when the toilet paper shortage hit during the initial Kung Fu Dempanic.

[Lurkinanloomin]

If it doesn’t happen, we will never be free again.

[Midwesterner53]

I have said for several years Trump should fire every three and four star officer in the military, disband the FBI and fire every employee in the Executive branch hired by either Biden or Obama. This article gives me great hope.

[TheDon]

Agreed. I approve.

[Vaduz]

Working on plans that would potentially strip layers at the Justice Department — including the FBI.

About time should have been done years ago stop the swamp.

[paddles]

The premise of this article is that they’ll actually replace those that they cull. I think the idea is to give the Executive Branch the enema it so desperately needs.

[bobbo666]

Show citizens how their Fed bureaucracies actually work. Move each dept from one city to the next, every year. Like a traveling circus.
Don’t wanna move from Dc to......SantaFe? Tough. Mebbe you will find a job at CNN. Next year, Bismark.

Cull the herd by moving the pasture. Every year for each year.

[Basket_of_Deplorables]

A pretty good article, aside from the obligatory snark. Well sourced and deeply researched.

[upchuck]

I certainly hope President Trump learned valuable personnel lessons from his previous term. Lots a bad choices were made.

[boxlunch]

Finally! So gladto hear Trump learned his lesson from the treachery of theswamp in his first term. He needs to clean house in the military and clown agencies as well.

[1Old Pro]

Eliminate lobbying. Elected officials should represent constituents not lobbyists.

[BiteYourSelf]

It’s what he should have done the first time but the repukes in Congress wouldn’t allow him to.🙄
