Pack Up, Bureaucrats: Vivek Ramaswamy Reveals How Trump With Help from DOGE Will Abolish ENTIRE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES and Crush the Administrative State (VIDEO 1:04) By Cullen Linebarger
Nov. 17, 2024 2:20 pm – If the incoming Trump administration has its way, thousands of deep-state bureaucrats who have lived off the U.S. taxpayer will have to find employment in the private sector. The cuts are poised to be so deep that entire agencies will be abolished.
The Gateway Pundit reported last Tuesday that President Trump announced Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will head the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Musk promised that the news “will send shockwaves through the system, and anyone involved in Government waste, which is a lot of people.”
Ramaswamy appeared on “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo to discuss DOGE’s plans for slashing wasteful spending and shrinking government. Bartiromo opened by asking whether they expected to close down entire agencies, such as the Department of Education.
Ramaswamy confirmed that the Trump Administration would eliminate government agencies and make massive reductions elsewhere, including by reducing the number of federal contractors over-billing the federal government.
Ramaswamy then explained to Bartiromo how they planned to achieve such historic cuts when previous presidents had failed. The secret, he explained, was that the unelected bureaucrats who run the government (the administrative state) were created through executive action and could be fired via executive action.
Moreover, the Supreme Court has ruled that many government regulations authorized by the federal government are unconstitutional, which makes it much easier to scale down the size of the administrative state.
The Trump administration will then use the bully pulpit to pressure Congress, which will be controlled by Republicans in the next session, to deliver on other portions of the federal budget that must be addressed one by one.
RAMASWAMY: First, we want to go right through executive action to do the failures of the executive branch that need to be addressed.
The dirty little secret is the people who we elect to run the government, they’re not the ones who actually run the government. It’s the unelected bureaucrats in the administrative state.
That was created through executive action. It’s gonna be fixed through executive action.
Think about the Supreme Court’s environment over the past several years. They have held that many of those regulations are unconstitutional.
Rescind those regulations, and then that gives us the industrial logic to then downsize the size of that administrative state. That can be achieved without Congress.
Score some early wins. Then you look at those bigger portions of the federal budget that need to be addressed one-by-one.
How can the president of the United States, who’s been elected with a historic mandate, actually DO the things that voters voted for?
They haven’t voted for incremental change. We have voted for sweeping change, and the voters actually deserve to get it.
And we’re focused on how to do that as early and as quickly as possible.
