I think Karl Koenigs describes the problems America is facing pretty well. Nevada Senator Pat McCarran, with the passage of the Administrative Procedures Act of 1946, was instrumental in reorganization of the federal government during the Truman years. The reorganization created the bureaucracies ruling the US of A today.

ONLY the States, through constitutional State Sovereignty Resolutions with Arrest Provisions, as drafted by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, specifically FOR THIS PURPOSE, can save us Americans from The DEEP STATE now. And, restore all usurpation and spending back as "reserved to the States respectively, or the people" along with our Individual Rights, States Rights, State sovereignty, our wages and salaries, our local hometown economies, our local hometown SMALL Businesses, and the individual wealth and power of the American Middle Class family.
My heart goes out to President Trump, who is being attacked by ALL Federal bureaus including the spy agencies, the "Shadow Government" that exceeds Article I Section 8 limits subsequent to the TENTH Amendment, that the Republicans and the Democrat crime syndicates created in the effort to be able to use our own wages and salaries against us and against the Constitution, in order to buy election votes from THEIR CHOSEN special interest voting blocs, in violation of the Ninth and TENTH Amendments.

State Dept. carries out layoffs under Rex Tillerson (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/state-dept-layoffs-under-rex-tillerson-being-carried-out/)
February 17, 2017, 12:44 AM
While Rex Tillerson (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/rex-tillerson-confirmed-by-senate-to-serve-as-secretary-of-state/) is on his first overseas trip as Secretary of State, his aides laid off staff at the State Department on Thursday.
Much of seventh-floor staff, who work for the Deputy Secretary of State for Management and Resources and the Counselor offices, were told today that their services were no longer needed.
These staffers in particular are often the conduit between the secretary’s office to the country bureaus, where the regional expertise is centered. Inside the State Department, some officials fear that this is a politically-minded purge that cuts out much-needed expertise from the policy-making, rather than simply reorganizing the bureaucracy.
New FBI release on Clinton email probe refers to 'Shadow Government' (http://www.cnbc.com/2016/10/17/fbi-releases-100-new-pages-on-clinton-email-probe.html)
Monday, 17 Oct 2016 | 12:19 PM ET
One revelation in the documents came from an interview with an unidentified person who suggested that Freedom of Information Act requests related to Clinton went through a group sometimes called "the Shadow Government."
"There was a powerful group of very high-ranking STATE officials that some referred to as 'The 7th Floor Group' or 'The Shadow Government.' This group met every Wednesday afternoon to discuss the FOIA process, Congressional records, and everything CLINTON-related to FOIA/Congressional inquiries," the FBI's interview summary said.
That group, according to the summary, argued for a Clinton document release to be conducted all at once "for coordination purposes" instead of on a rolling basis as would normally be the case. But the "Shadow Government" did not get its way, and the agency in charge decided for a rolling release, the FBI summary said.

The 'Deep State' hides in all the unelected agencies, bureacracies and commisions which I believe were/are unconstitutionally created by Congress abdicating its legislative authority to the Executive Branch in the 1946-1948 reorganization of the federal government during the Truman years. Nevada Senator Pat McCarran pushed for the Administrative Procedures Act and in his words 'created the fourth branch of government'.
These nameless, faceless bureaucrats write rules and regulations that have the force of law. These socialist/communists are not replaced when a new administratiin come into power.
The last year of the Obama administration these unelected dictators wrote 81,000 pages of regulations. Most of these bureaus, agencies and departments and their to numerous to count sub-departments have no constitutional authority to exist.
These rules and regulations have been stripping away my and your freedom at a snowballing rate.
The following article breaks down the monetary costs without putting enough emphasis to the robbing of your personal liberties.
Federal Bureaucracies & Bureaucrats: The Enemies Within (http://freerangereport.com/index.php/2017/04/15/federal-bureaucracies-bureaucrats-the-enemies-within/)
April 15, 2017 (http://freerangereport.com/index.php/2017/04/15/federal-bureaucracies-bureaucrats-the-enemies-within/) editor (http://freerangereport.com/index.php/author/editor/) One comment (http://freerangereport.com/index.php/2017/04/15/federal-bureaucracies-bureaucrats-the-enemies-within/#comments)
This could be a great beginning but we truly need to jettison a lot more of our socialist bureaus, departments, agencies, laws and regulations which have been exactly what all this ‘big government in control’ has been striving toward. The federal government was never intended to be in charge and certainly not a creator, fixer, charity house and surely not a referee picking winners and losers in the business community. It was established with enumerated powers, period.

Eliminating Federal Agencies Needs Being Done
However, Nobody Wants Their Ox Gored
Today the United States is 17th in the World Economic Freedom Index.
Economic Freedom defined: The freedom to prosper within a country without intervention from a government or economic authority. Individuals are free to secure and protect his/her human resources, labor and private property. Economic freedom is common in capitalist economies and must incorporate other civil liberties to be deemed as truly free. – The Business Dictionary.com
In a 2015 Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, one senator noted that “The Federal Register indicates there are over 430 departments, agencies, and sub-agencies in the federal government (https://cei.org/blog/nobody-knows-how-many-federal-agencies-exist).”
Obama’s presidency produced 81,640 total pages of regulations (https://cei.org/blog/obamas-2016-federal-register-just-topped-highest-page-count-all-time) and rules for 2016 alone, a record. To put into perspective what type of effect the regulatory state has on the American economy, a 2014 report by the National Association of Manufacturers (http://www.nam.org/Data-and-Reports/Cost-of-Federal-Regulations/Federal-Regulation-Full-Study.pdf) found that regulatory costs on all firms exceed $2 trillion annually and disproportionally affect small businesses.
The English writer G.K. Chesterton stated, “The business of Progressives is to go on making mistakes. The business of Conservatives is to prevent mistakes from being corrected.” 99% of these mistakes all have to do with their transgressions in violation of our blessed Constitution.
“The Tenth Amendment (http://constitutioncenter.org/interactive-constitution/amendments/amendment-x) emphasizes the belief that the federal government holds only those powers and responsibilities specifically discussed in the Constitution, and that all others are reserved to the individual states, and to the people. This amendment does not give new powers to the states, but specifically safeguards their authority over all matters that are not specifically granted to the federal government.” – The Legal Dictionary.net
WHY WE’RE IN THE MESS WE’RE IN
Unconstitutional subsidies, grants, loan guarantees, tax deductions, foreign aid, stimulus plans, regulations and unconstitutional agencies, therefore, shouldn’t exist in the first place. All these actions by our government for citizens, corporations, financial institutions, states, counties, cities and other countries are not what our federal government was set up to do. It has morphed into a giant good will endeavor purporting to enrich and improve life for the benefit of all while in fact, it has been expropriating power to itself, charging it all to taxpayers and businesses while unsettling our true ‘competitive’ business dynamic in what should be a free marketplace. Most of this was created at the direction of the establishment (CFR). (http://gemstatepatriot.com/blog/who-the-establishment-really-is/)
Free people prosper. Restrained people… not so much. Nothing spends like someone else’s money, especially when that someone else is utterly inattentive and over trusting. American citizens have been tuned out and too trusting of politicians that are naïve, deluded or eaten up with $PECIAL INTERE$T greed.
And guess what? Not one of these bureaucratic departments or agencies want their ox gored!
WE DON’T HAVE A BUDGET PROBLEM
We have a spending problem! A budget’s total of expenditures is not ‘the problem,‘ it is the itemizations!, or the ‘devil in the details’ that create the total to be balanced. Our list of expenditures is the root problem. Like itemizations such as our government spending more on corporate welfare subsidies than social welfare (http://thinkbynumbers.org/government-spending/corporate-welfare/corporate-vs-social-welfare/) programs in 2006. And that is particularly outrageous when you consider that billions of those welfare expenditures are illegally being paid to non-qualifying illegal aliens which actually now is the greater of the two expenditures.
In FY 2016 total US government spending on welfare (http://www.usgovernmentspending.com/welfare_spending) — federal, state, and local — was “guesstimated” to be $1,032 billion (that’s over $1 trillion), including $591 billion for Medicaid, and $467 billion in other welfare. There are 70 Federal Domestic Assistance agencies with 2306 programs listed here (https://www.cfda.gov/?s=main&mode=list&tab=list&tabmode=list).
LET’S TALK JUST SUBSIDIES
Philip Mattera in his report, “Subsidizing the Corporate One Percent (http://www.goodjobsfirst.org/sites/default/files/docs/pdf/subsidizingthecorporateonepercent.pdf)” reported that $110 billion was given to 965 big business parents of subsidy recipients. He also stated that the total number of these awards were over 25,000 and all this accounts for a 75 percent portion of the total value of the Subsidy Tracker universe.
He stated, “Berkshire Hathaway, a company with $485 billion in assets and $20 billion in profits, received over $1 billion of that money. Its chair, Warren Buffett, is worth about $58 billion. Buffett, by the way, is still a darling of the left. He has some nerve to call for higher taxes. The billion dollars his companies took would pay for a lot of teachers, healthcare, and other public goods.” (His alternate recipients would also be receiving the money un-constitutionally.)
From Tom Coburn’s Milking Taxpayers (http://www.economist.com/news/united-states/21643191-crop-prices-fall-farmers-grow-subsidies-instead-milking-taxpayers) at the Economist.com in 2015, “American farm subsidies are egregiously expensive, harvesting $20 billion a year from taxpayers’ pockets. Most of the money goes to big, rich farmers producing staple commodities such as corn and soybeans in states such as Iowa.
“To this day, to be treated as a farmer in America doesn’t necessarily require you to grow any crops. According to the Government Accountability Office, between 2007 and 2011 Uncle Sam paid some $3m in subsidies to 2,300 farms where no crop of any sort was grown. Between 2008 and 2012, $10.6m was paid to farmers who had been dead for over a year.”
These links are sure to further stir your ire: NFL gets billions in subsidies from U.S. taxpayers (http://money.cnn.com/2015/01/30/news/companies/nfl-taxpayers/), 10 Taxpayer Handouts to the Super Rich That Will Make Your Blood Boil (http://usuncut.com/class-war/10-corporate-welfare-programs-that-will-make-your-blood-boil/), Should Washington End Agriculture Subsidies? (https://www.wsj.com/articles/should-washington-end-agriculture-subsidies-1436757020), American taxpayers give an $18 billion gift to the post office every year (http://fortune.com/2015/03/27/us-postal-service/), and Despite $39 billion in Annual Gov’t. Subsidies, Solar Produced 0.5% of Electricity in US (http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/barbara-hollingsworth/despite-39b-annual-govt-subsidies-solar-produced-05-electricity). Also for some insight and inspiration see: Downsizing the Federal Government, YOUR GUIDE TO CUTTING FEDERAL SPENDING (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/federal-worker-pay).
RON PAUL PROPOSED SAVING $1T BY SCRAPPING 5 FED. DEPT’S
Stephanie Condon with CBS News reported (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/ron-paul-proposes-saving-1t-by-scrapping-five-federal-departments/) in 2011 that Ron Paul during his presidential campaign “unveiled a plan to cut $1 Trillion from the federal budget within one year by cutting a handful of federal departments.
“Paul’s plan would shape the federal government to fit the Texas Republican’s small-government, federalist views, slashing remaining department budgets, immediately ending all war spending, eliminating programs viewed as unnecessary, sending control over programs like Medicaid to the states, scrapping significant regulations and cutting taxes.
“Along with the Departments of Energy and Education, Paul also proposes eliminating the Departments of Housing and Urban Development, Commerce, and Interior. Paul would also abolish the Transportation Security Administration, leaving security at airports and other transportation systems up to the private sector.”
TRUMP SPENDING CUT IDEAS
Writing for the Cato Institute (https://www.cato.org/blog/trump-spending-cut-ideas), Chris Edwards says, “So let me suggest some wasteful spending that the new administration should tackle, and the annual savings from terminating each:
K-12 school subsidies (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/education/k-12-education-subsidies), which generate bureaucracy and stifle innovation ($25 billion).
Farm subsidies (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/agriculture/subsidies), which enrich wealthy landowners and harm the environment ($25 billion).
Rural corporate welfare (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/agriculture/rural-subsidies), which is handed out by the Department of Agriculture ($6 billion).
Energy subsidies (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/energy/energy-subsidies), which have been one boondoggle after another ($5 billion).
TSA airport screening (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/homeland-security/tsa), which Trump has said is “a total disaster” ($5 billion).
The war on drugs (https://www.cato.org/research/drug-war), which wastes police resources and generates violence ($15 billion).
Excess pay for federal workers (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/federal-worker-pay), especially gold-plated retirement benefits ($33 billion with a 10 percent cut).
Housing subsidies (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/hud/public-housing-rental-subsidies), which distort markets and damage cities ($37 billion).
Community development aid (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/hud/community-development), which is corporate welfare used for buying votes ($11 billion).
Urban transit (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/transportation/urban-transit) and passenger rail funding (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/transportation/privatizing-amtrak), which are properly local and private activities ($12 billion).
Obamacare exchange subsidies and Medicaid expansion (https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/plan-to-cut-federal-spending), which should be repealed along with the overall law ($225 billion a year by 2026).
TOP 10 EXAMPLES OF GOVERNMENT WASTE
Josh Guckert at Libertarian Republic.com cites what he calls his Top 10 Examples of Government Waste (http://thelibertarianrepublic.com/top-10-government-agencies-we-should-eliminate-immediately/), “Government Agencies Are Out of Control. When George Washington became President, his cabinet consisted of only an Attorney General and the Secretaries of State, War and Treasury. Needless to say, in the two centuries since then, government bureaucracy has gotten completely out of control, and it has become nearly impossible to keep track of all of the country’s departments and agencies. While there are entire departments that should also be discarded, here are 10 agencies which we could easily do without. Because there are so many which are ineffective and intrusive, this is certainly not an exhaustive list:
National Security Agency
Food and Drug Administration
Environmental Protection Agency
Amtrak
Internal Revenue Service
Federal Emergency Management Agency
Transportation Security Administration
Drug Enforcement Administration
Federal Communications Commission
Federal Reserve
Also, see the GAO report about how the federal government wasted $45 billion in redundant programs (http://www.thefiscaltimes.com/Articles/2014/04/09/45-Billion-Wasted-Redundant-Federal-Programs-GAO).
It’s interesting that the Government Accountability Office’s 2016 report (http://www.gao.gov/duplication/overview) presents: “ 92 actions that the executive branch or Congress could take to improve efficiency and effectiveness across 37 areas that span a broad range of government missions and functions.
GAO suggests 33 actions to address evidence of fragmentation, overlap, or duplication in 12 new areas across the government missions of defense, economic development, health, homeland security, and information technology.
GAO also presents 59 opportunities for executive branch agencies or Congress to take actions to reduce the cost of government operations or enhance revenue collections for the Treasury across 25 areas of government.”

This could be a great beginning but we truly need to jettison a lot more of our socialist bureaus, departments, agencies, laws and regulations which have been exactly what all this ‘big government in control’ has been striving toward. The federal government was never intended to be in charge and certainly not a creator, fixer, charity house and surely not a referee picking winners and losers in the business community. It was established with enumerated powers, period.
FINALLY, ELIMINATING THE SOCIALIST AGENCIES PROCESS HAS BEGUN.
Bill, H.R. 861, was just introduced by Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) to abolish the ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (https://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/congress/item/25468-bill-to-eliminate-environmental-protection-agency-introduced-in-congress) (also known as the EPA (https://www.epa.gov/)),
Bill, H.R. 899, to shut down the controversial and unconstitutional U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION (https://www.thenewamerican.com/culture/education/item/25345-bill-shutting-u-s-education-department-introduced-in-congress) was introduced in Congress by Congressman Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), a leading constitutional conservative.
In re-introducing the ATF Elimination Act (https://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/constitution/item/25187-atf-elimination-act-re-introduced-in-the-house) on Thursday, January 12, Representative Jim Sensenbrenner (R- Wis.) explained one of the primary reasons why: “The ATF is a scandal-ridden, largely duplicative agency that has been branded by failure and lacks a clear mission. It is plagued by backlogs, funding gaps, hiring challenges, and a lack of leadership.” – Unquote The New American .com’s Bob Adelmann
That’s a beginning. Then we need keep going and gore the oxen of the BLM, USFS, Fish and Wildlife, US Parks Dept., etc. while at the same time getting our western states’ land back. The Fed’s shouldn’t control any of our states’ lands.
The Federal Government should be about nothing except its enumerated powers!!! IT’S A STATES’ RIGHTS THING. States should control land, water, air and parks. Check the Constitution and awaken and threaten your legislators with retirement should they not start the hard job of reclaiming our Republic as it should be. This can and needs being done.
It should be pointed out that former government employees would evolve into vibrant jobs in the expanding commerce of the healthier private sector and be just fine. As Americans, the good ones will appreciate their new freedoms and the whiners will have to attend to some growing up. America isn’t about guarantees. It is about the freedom to grow and succeed and learning valuable lessons that can be built upon when attaining less.
States Bob Adelmann of the New American .com (https://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/item/24799-trump-s-plans-to-cut-government-coming-into-focus), “The one thing that would work best at reducing government: following the limitations placed on the federal government by the Constitution. Under Article 8, the duties have been enumerated, limited, and then guaranteed under the 10th Amendment: ‘The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.’ Just following the Constitution would, it has been estimated, cut the government by at least 80 percent.” Think of the good that money could do working in the private sector.
America isn’t about government freebies, it’s about freedom, personal responsibility, morality and limited government.
Ox goring season is open year round. There are so many oxen to gore, whose protection will be vehemently fought for by LOBBYI$T$, their ‘client’ corporations, supported legislators, Presidents and judges. Patriot Up!

Synopsis: Oh no! The poor deep state! Morning Joe MSNBC invites a The Atlantic writer to simp, with dupers delight, for a stressed "civil service bureaucracy- deep state”, about bad mean President Trump and can't cope childlike government employee culture.
MSNBC (video): Trump winning his war on U.S. institutions: The Atlantic (https://www.msnbc.com/morning-joe/watch/trump-winning-his-war-on-u-s-institutions-the-atlantic-79812165508)
The Atlantic's George Packer interviewed officials within the Trump administration along with those who have been fired or have left for his article on the impact Trump's WH has had on the government.
