Maybe his objective is to empty the government of workers.

Period.

I had this realization yesterday when someone typed about Bannon's stated intention to shutter government. Here is what I typed:

"And cabinet members are only "acting" as they are appointed?

I realized today that he/they are emptying out the government of workers, and filling only a few--but with non-confirmed acting employees to circumvent Congress.

A skeleton government.

Another way of decimating the structure of government is by the appointment of grossly unqualified workers. It's happening.

Wake up America!!

Look what's going on!!

And now the shutdown. He shut the government down.

LOOK!! "

God almighty. A stealth way to break a country.
