Trump is literally gutting the Federal Government... Have a friend who has worked for Indian Island Naval magazine as a Waste Water Manager for 20 years.. He told me yesterday that last week every Civil Service employee on the base was sent a letter from the White House requesting that they resign immediately.. The terms of an immediate resignation were to be placed on Administrative Leave until September 1 with full pay and benefits until separation on Sept 1...


Trump froze 3 trillion dollars in grants and loans which probably fund 25% of states and local governments...

Trump is taking away administrative enforcement tools from many federal agencies such as the EPA,, ATF and DHS...

Trumps Federal cuts and reduction of the federal workforce will indeed trickle down to the States,, cities and counties... With DEI,, Climate change Agenda and all the woke crap being purged local agenda's will not survive...

I would think that especially blue states are starting to panic as local governments heavily rely on Grants for basic operation... Non profits have been 100% de funded across the board via the Grant freeze...

Trump is signing executive orders, but Musk looks to be the one who is actually deciding what to cut from the federal government. Trump doesn't have the legal authority to impound federal funds or break up federal agencies. That power belongs to Congress. But the eunuch Republican Congress won't object to any of this, less they incur Trump's wrath. With the Republican Congress afraid of Trump, Congress becomes superfluous if it doesn't exercise its power. With no Congressional power, the US has become an oligarchy.

It's going to be red states that are in a panic when they realize they are larger beneficiaries of federal funding than blue states.

Looks like Musk can't hand out pink slips fast enough at the agencies that are investigating his companies for wrong doing. No, that's not a conflict of interest. Move along. Nothing to see.

Who wants to be sheriff when you would have to arrest most of the local government officials for Fraud/corruption/vaccine homicide?

Looks like some of the red states are losing their sh!t cuz they didn't understand that important services they receive are provided by federal workers. Oh well, at least their billionaire overlords are getting richer.

As for myself, I'm concerned about the NPS and NFS not being able to hire the seasonals who clear trails in the summer and keep the national parks and forests open for public use. I'm a hiker, backpacker, and fisherman who uses these public resources. I hate it when NPS locks the gates, forcing me to trespass to hike on my own public land.
