Well, well, well, here we are two days shy of three weeks into Trump’s second term and the DOGE has hit the fan.

It’s evident that Trump 2.0 is an improved version of the original Trump. Not a day goes by that he doesn’t issue Executive Orders ranging from the silly – like renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, to the important – like “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports.”[1] His ‘Border Czar’ is busy deporting illegal migrants, except for the really bad ones, those get sent to Guantanamo Bay. His emphasis on strict border enforcement has resulted in illegal border crossings plummeting by over 93%. And about those nations who initially refused to take back their citizens illegally in the U.S.? Well they were informed that the U.S. could be difficult too…and just like that, they decided they really would like their citizens back.

The speed that Trump initiated these and other actions took the left by surprise and sent shock waves through the Democratic party.

But it was Trump’s cabinet nominees that got the Democrats and deep state bureaucrats to set their hair on fire and run around screaming the end of civilization is near. The reason for this dire, albeit inaccurate and unhinge shrieking? Trump’s nominees are committed to reining in the unelected deep state by firing those bureaucrats who claim they’re ‘saving democracy’ by unlawfully undermining the democratically elected President. But the thing that scares the left more than all of this is the “Department of Government Efficiency” because it threatens the deep state’s power base – its job security and ability to control spending.
