Summary
House Speaker Mike Johnson plans to cut 75% of federal agencies, reducing them from 428 to 99, in collaboration with Elon Muskās āDepartment of Government Efficiencyā (DOGE), led by Vivek Ramaswamy.
Johnsonās agenda includes defunding PBS, Planned Parenthood, and curbing the āadministrative stateā through legislation and executive orders under Donald Trump.
Critics warn such cuts would impact jobs, healthcare, and essential services.
Backed by recent Supreme Court rulings limiting agency authority, Johnson and DOGE aim to reduce federal regulations, sparking significant debate over these drastic proposals.
The private sector is not equipped to absorb millions of people. Most of these government workers are highly educated and highly specialized. These people arenāt going to just replace the millions of jobs Trump is planning to deport from the labor force.
You know that, I know that and Iām sure the people calling for these cuts know it. The difference is they donāt care.
