#MAGA MACHINE is the #Project2025 #heritagefoundation BS plan to... (see image)

"In practice, Schedule F could easily purge qualified subject experts from advisory positions at the first sign of disobedience and turn federal agencies into ultra-partisan arms of the Heritage Foundation's mission."

Firing disloyal government personnel One of the most concerning expansions of presidential authority would come if Trump found himself in a position to reinstate an executive order titled Schedule F, which is strongly endorsed by Project 2025. Trump introduced Schedule F at the end of his first term and it was quickly reversed by President Biden. If Trump wins this time around, he could use Schedule F to transform the U.S. government into a MAGA machine by reclassifying thousands of nonpartisan federal employees into "at-will" workers who can be replaced via political appointment. Project 2025 suggests that Schedule F be applied to discharge career civil service workers whom Trump deems "nonperforming," or those who get in the way of the administration's attempts at reform.

@6G @stevesilberman T successfully did this in 2018 under the radar. This time he will destroy many agencies and discontinue critical services by separating expert civil servants from jobs whose work product we often ignore and/or take for granted. #education #environment #economy #civilliberties #justice #democracy #transportation #healthcare #snap #childcare #defense #criminaljustice #fda #agriculture #energy #pollution #climatecrisis #fossifuels #socialsecurity #medicare #commerce

Yes and we were lucky that time, because many (slowly) got indicted and some guilty and many resigned, but #Trump did bend things to spend 7 Trillion USD, T hurt the US
