"The next presidency is going to have to embark on a sweeping de-Trump-ification of the entire federal government"

"The next presidency is going to have to embark on a sweeping de-Trump-ification of the entire federal government to purge it of the culture of abuse and lawlessness that has taken hold, and there are few more vivid examples than ICE."

Article about the need to abolish ICE in the next Democratic administration. It is well worth reading.

You got to go deep down into the federal government to fire all Trump supporters in even the most menial jobs.

If the MAGA crowd wants to go back to a 19th century spoils system, we can definitely give them that.

Even if we can overcome the courts, the media and the rigged election and somehow right the ship, there are so many things that will have to be done. It boggles the mind. Decades of damage already done.
