This time Trump is all, and his only mission is to abolish the basic canons of constitutional self-government.

The initial days of Donald Trump’s first presidential term were mostly adopted by Bakeoone-largely Trump’s determination to reflect the middle inauguration as a scale of the tree and its unrealized promise to build a wall along the southern border of the country.
The initial days of Trump had a completely different and more disturbing, tenor. This time the White House is easy at demonstration and unloading. Ten days in Trump 2.0, scared to Trump and his The internal circle of genuine and ladies This is all and that their only mission is to cancel the basic canons of constitutional self -government.
Trump’s most splashed about the authoritarian executive force was suspension of costs on federal grant—Dana -affiliate illegally usurpation of power by the Oval Service, which violated as the main constitutional doctrine Separation of powers And the Law on Control of the 1974 coating. Matthew J. Waut, acting as the director of Trump management and budget, stated that the note was temporary in the note. After canceling itAlthough the White House then confusedly stated that freezing was still in place. Whatever the wind happens, this battle does not leave.
One thing is clear against the background of the whole chaos. Just like the orderly Trump on emergency executive orders, which attacked everything from the rights to trans -immigration to the Dei’s international environmental commitments in America – throttle of federal expenses allowed by Congress The 2025 project will put the agenda The fact that Trump dishonestly claimed had nothing to do with his plan for the government. Really Metadata from the Vaeth memo It indicates that two of its main authors Peters and James Sherk, who boast the powers of both projects in 2025, and his analytical sponsors, the Heritage Foundation. “Use federal with a fictional project of 2025 war for war.
This unprecedented and unreasonable shutdown of major government operations closes the dizziness series of tyrannical actions during the first 10 days of the Trump administration.
The tags were fixed at the beginning, with Trump sweeping pardon From January 1600, 6 riots – announcement that efforts to undermine elections and unilaterally declare the presidency through violent vigilance was something that did not cause serious legal consequences. In conjunction with the refusal to protect the security of Trump’s perceived enemies, such as Anthony Fus and Mike Pumpo, it was incitement to further violence in the mafia for Maga’s tasks.
Trump has also swiftly moved to revive the stem from the first term: deprivation of the main employment protection against most federal government officers. To take home the true meaning of this step, Trump’s functionaries instantly lit a federal agency to manage Actually loyalty oath and document the Maga conversion reviews. This disk goes the hand in gloves with the grant shutdown; Both radical steps seek to convert federal agencies into mandatory Maga Agitprop outlets at the expense of basic income, emergency assistance and social security network costs.
Other abuse of power, which the author of Trump in the first 10 days serve the same main directive of the maximum magician. That is why acting as Prosecutor General Trump in the cashier of a legal team who worked on the affairs of a special prosecutor Jack Smith against Trump, and why Trump fired 17 inspector generals For no reason again on the brazen contrary to the division of powers. In this Trump’s White House, government officials who have any independent surveillance and opinion regime must be accepted at the exits of all intentional speed as they are obstacles first in the troupe control model that acts on mandates, corruption and ideological Service.
This revolutionary vision of the impunity of the executive power comes greatly from a man for whom Waut holds a place in the director in OMB: Russell Vus, a self -proclaimed Christian nationalist who ruled the agency during Trump’s first term. Vought was the Operational Director of the 2025 project and in the chapter he submitted to the documentHe declared a war with a “widespread federal bureaucracy”, which, he said, “pursues his own plans and benefits of politics – or worse, plans of politics and the advantages of a radical, allegedly” woken “fraction of the country.”
In order to withstand this threat, Vought accepted the false right theory of the “unitary executive power”-Kwasi-monarchial presidency, which gave a one-sided power to rearrange government operations in their own prevailing image, which would make even wildly blush. Like Trump, Vought has made an emergency to justify the power. “The overall situation is constitutionally terrible, unstable and in urgent need for repair,” he wrote. “No less than the survival of self -government in America.” As part of Trump recognized by Vauta, the main Directorate of OMB would be to stop federal agencies “trying to defend their own institutional interests and redeem certain ways based on a simple statement (rather than proof) that the law prohibits it or that and vice versa, an attempt to ignore clear Congress’ statutory teams. ”

The overwhelming goal of rethinking US management as an executive game, unexpectedly rests from the Christian nationalist hero brand, with Donald Trump in the lead role. The presidential task on hand, Wats wrote: “It will take a rare combination of courage and self -denial: the courage to bend or break the bureaucracy to the presidential will and the dedication to use the bureaucratic machine to send power from Washington and back for families of America, the communities of the faith, the local bodies and states. “
Half that prophecy is now going on: Trump flexes and violates the federal labor and major government operations in accordance with its authoritarian whim. However, there is no appropriate transfer of power and resources to smaller control units as a result. Federal grants account for 36 percent of state budgets in the US. Add to the main events in the healthcare and income support such as Medicaid, and the unexpected shutdown of the Trump government is a stunning stroke of the working class that Maga plays in defense.
But none of this is important in the second term of Trump, which was not rejected from the need to support the court in re -election. The White House of Trump is essentially Atlas shrugged-Instead of rallying the conventional creators of wealth at the forefront, he mobilized Christian nationalist bandits and shameless law enforcement officers into the front ranks of nihilist exercises in revenge, independently and oligarchic fantasy at will. John Galt muts the joker before our eyes, and militant gospel apparatus, such as Russell Wuts, died, giving him all the power they can.
