He is going to scatter the federal workforce across the country. Placement of the displaced will give senators and congressmen something to fight over to win his favor through their votes and support for the MAGA 2.0 agenda.

I called this in 2017, and the trial run was the Department of Interior move to Colorado. This has mostly made it through the courts, so he will likely move on to Agriculture, Education, and oddball ash-and-trash operations like the Census, Weights-and-Measures, and various Department of Energy and Department of Health and Human Services operations.

The Pentagon will be next since major commands and programs can be relocated to the numerous military bases throughout the country. Make the beltway bandits open multiple offices across the country. Interestingly enough, they will be lobbying hard for these offices to open in low-tax, low-cost-of-living (i.e. red) states.

There is precedent for this. Robert "Sheets" Byrd moved a shit ton of Treasury and the DC prison to West Virginia when he was majority leader through legislation signed by Bush 41.

GEOTUS is going to turn DC into a ghost town, and it frankly could not happen to a more deserving bunch of douchebag fucks. I say this as someone whose net worth will be negatively impacted by all of this. I am cool with it because it's the right thing to do. This area was mostly business-as-usual when the Indonesian Imbecile was doing his best impression of FDR's unnecessary prolonging of the Great Depression after the 2008 mortgage crisis while the rest of the country suffered through ~6 years of recession.

School choice and vouchers for all American parents will take care of that.

Leftists are mostly government sub-humans, they think everyone loves big gov as they do.

Everyone that spent any time dealing with government regulation wish nothing but the complete destruction of every bureaucrat.

Including time in the Army, I spent twenty-five years in and around government.

There are plenty of great, conscientious people working for the federal government. The numbers are comparable with good people in private sector companies that do not exist primarily to do work for the government.

The problem is that there is a ridiculously large minority (~8%) of complete fuckwads who are toxic in the workplace for various reasons who cannot be disciplined because of competitive service rules and merit system protections. It is too much trouble to do anything about these dipshits, so the best strategy is to keep them out of other people's hair and wait them out until they retire or take a promotion into another agency.

The problem is that those great, conscientious people I mentioned earlier would fight tooth-and-nail to keep the same merit system protections that shield these pieces of shit who actually negatively impact their lives.

These same great, conscientious people also live their lives and run their households according to conservative principles proven to lead to success in life but then vote for whatever marxist piece of shit is the flavor of the day. They know who butters their bread.

I too was military, and held a government job. Problem is that the very best public employees all seem to be in the wrong places.
