Totally, man. That’s why the funding freeze was reversed in less than 24 hours after a lawsuit was filed.

You think no damage has taken place? We're in a thread where FOIA admitted that most of its staff has been laid off. They are trying to get rid of as many departments as they can.

Throughout all of this, I want you to understand one thing: It is easier to destroy than it is to create!

Things can be destroyed instantly. It takes no time to fire an entire department and wipe away centuries of institutional knowledge. It doesn't matter if a lawsuit for a few of these managed to piece through the smoldering ruins and rescue what they could.

Trump himself even had a hard time trying to "unfire" a bunch of nuclear weapons workers.

You need to turn off the TV, stop doomscrolling, breathe, and maybe watch some alternative media.

Stop assuming what I do and don't do. You aren't me, you don't know who I am, what my political trappings are, and what my habits are.

You may need to start.

Open your eyes. All of this behavior is unprecedented. You can't just reference previous years and expect to be a guide.

Congress is too busy shitting its pants, while filling out the paperwork to do so, to matter. I think this opinion piece put it best:

And so we find ourselves in the absurd position where Democratic leadership, in the form of Jeffries and Schumer, treats an ongoing coup like an inconvenient scheduling conflict. Their response to democracy's crisis amounts to little more than checking Robert's Rules of Order to see if authoritarianism requires a two-thirds majority.

While Rome burns, they're busy drafting strongly-worded letters to the arsonists, pausing only to scold the citizens who dare suggest using the fire extinguishers. Their position would be merely comedic if it weren't so catastrophically dangerous—like watching someone respond to a home invasion by suggesting the burglar fill out a visitor's form.
