      DeSantis is a Harvard law school grad and Navy lawyer, he absolutely has an idea what all of those governmental entities do, this is just him and the GOP trying to normalize the fascistic accumulation of power, step one of becoming a dictatorship.

      Also this is the GOP's plan to do exactly that:

      Project 2025

      https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/conservatives-aim-to-restructure-u-s-government-and-replace-it-with-trumps-vision

      It's just a step by step to purge the government, then whatever else, of undesirables while making an effort to destroy our government one piece at a time. Fascistic Libertarian hellscape here we come! (Also this is nothing new from them, just more open fascism)

      Yeah, so what does he want to do with nuclear material along with all of the research around the country? I don't think people know that Energy is responsible for our nuclear stockpile. Not Defense.

    This is the problem with a party whose entire political platform is to prove that government doesn't work. It wants dysfunction.

      Come on now, that's not fair, if a wet saltine was my only food, I would choose it over starving. If DeSantis was the only candidate I could put on the ballot, I wouldn't vote.

    IRS. From the party of law and order.

    And with the others, if there was any doubt it should now be crystal clear this is the party of burn it all down.

      It hasn’t been the party of law and order for decades at this point.

      Nixon showed the cracks, Reagan opened the floodgates, and the Twice-Impeached One showed how far they can push people.

      Oh yes, instead of the IRS we get private companies who knock on our doors and harass us, who will take a far larger cut than before for the sake of privatization. Taxes gotta be collected and sorry its pointless to be angry at the IRS when they are just following the laws that congress have established.

    He would be so assassinated, so quickly. The IRS does not fuck around. Neither does the Department of Education.
