The Trump administration is aggressively pursuing a three-pronged strategy against what it deems the 'deep state' within federal agencies. This includes a series of executive orders reducing civil-service protections, a significant budget reconciliation bill aimed at cutting federal employee support, and the establishment of the Department of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk. Such moves are designed to dismantle bureaucratic power, facilitate Trump's agenda, and appeal to conservatives seeking to limit federal size and influence, while also provoking some bipartisan discussions on governmental efficiency reform.
Many conservatives desperately want to reduce the size and power of the federal government based on the theory that Washington's hirelings unduly restrict private enterprise.
The ongoing wave of executive orders is paring back civil-service protections for federal employees, signaling a fundamental shift in federal governance.
