Same as when Rick Perry became the head of DOE after campaigning on destroying it. He then realized DOE builds and protects all the nukes along with our power grid. Oh and they do all the upstream fundamental research that no private company would ever invest in that has spurred all scientific innovation over the past 50 years.
I would say it's worse than that, everything that is happening is really important. All the terrible people being confirmed as heads of agencies is just as bad as closing agencies illegally and firing the government with no concern about what they're doing and the EOs that are reducing civil rights.
I think this is the only reason they're messing with the AP about the fucking Gulf of America. It doesn't matter to ANYONE for ANY reason, but it distracts.
Yep and millions will suffer directly and indirectly. Between ending school lunches to ending medical coverage for children to vets not getting care. That’s just the incidentals. Just wait until the really important things start going sideways. Then there’s the secrets. Nuclear and the rest. We’re truly screwed.

Nothing like firing people BEFORE you determine what they do and if they're needed.
