Trump And Musk Out To Destroy Federal Government!

Ronald 58 Comments

Donald Trump and Elon Musk have declared war on the federal government and its multitude of agencies, a totally destructive and dangerous move that will undermine economic, social, and political stability, and threaten American national security.

Among the government agencies being attacked and damaged are, in no special order:

Federal Bureau of Investigation
Central Intelligence Agency
US Agency For International Development
Department of Justice
Department of Defense
Department of the Treasury
Department of Labor
Department of Veterans Affairs
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services
Centers for Disease Control And Prevention
Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
Federal Aviation Administration
Federal Emergency Management Agency
Food and Drug Administration
Immigration and Customs Enforcement
Office of Management and Budget
Office of Personnel Management
General Services Administration
Social Security Administration
The Department of Education
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
Environmental Protection Agency
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
Consumer Product Safety Commission
National Labor Relations Board
Public Broadcasting Service
National Public Radio

These agencies were created under many Presidential administrations, both Democratic and Republican, since the time of Franklin D. Roosevelt more than nine decades ago!

Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation plan to promote massive right wing government in America, is a direct attack on crucial government agencies:

Eliminate the Department of Energy
Eliminate the Department of Education
Eliminate the Department of Commerce
Eliminate the Food and Drug Administration
Eliminate the Environmental Protection Agency
Eliminate the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
Eliminate the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
Transform the Department of Justice to an agency controlled by the White House
Radically Change the Federal Bureau of Investigation
Radically Change the Department of Homeland Security
Repeal Dodd-Frank Financial Regulations
Reduce Business Regulations
End Funding of National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting System
Privatize the Federal Aviation Administration

The whole concept of an “Administrative State”, which has been part of American government since Theodore Roosevelt onward, and with both parties, Democrats and Republicans, is under threat, as it is also due to recent Supreme Court decisions!

The Symbolic Decline Of Labor: Thirty Years Ago Today, Ronald Reagan Fired The Air Traffic Controllers For Going On Strike

Ronald Leave a comment

On this day in 1981, President Ronald Reagan fired the air traffic controllers for going on strike, and this marked the symbolic decline of labor unions in America ever since, with Republican governors now having declared war on public workers in labor unions in 2011!

Ironic that a former labor leader as head of the Screen Actors Guild became the image of an anti labor President, and even more ironic that tens of thousands of workers working for the Federal Aviation Administration are now out of work over a funding dispute between the Republicans in the House and the Democrats in the Senate. There is absolutely no concern by the Republicans over workers not getting paid, losing their homes, and disrupting the economy, as long as they win the point that only big business matters, as under Calvin Coolidge in the 1920s.

The coming to power of Calvin Coolidge to the Presidency on this day, a leader who thought big business corporations were not “special interests”, but that labor and farmer and small business were such, and did not deserve any government favoritism, demonstrates that the Republican Party has not changed its image despite it being nearly a century later!
