Good Points Here - Who Is Really Running Things In The US Government?

Hint - It wasn't Donald Trump, and it isn't Joe Biden, either...

The problem in DC - and the US - is a longstanding structural problem. Neither Biden nor Trump set any kind of real policy - and if they try to, they're reined back in and quickly - note how Biden's statements at pressers, and Trump's "twitter explosions" are "walked back" by "staff". We've got two governments - the one at the White House and Capitol Hill, the not-very-dignified government, but elected by the people with the intent and expectation to set policy and run things - and the actual "efficient" government of the Administrative State, which is permanent and unelected and largely composed of corporatist neoliberals. The Administrative State exists without any Constitutional basis, and has, since its inception. It has subverted Constitutional process since then, and now strives to overtly overthrow Constitutional governance. It is the living embodiment of sedition, and it itself must be overthrown and abolished at all levels.

"The post-New Deal administrative state is unconstitutional, and its validation by the legal system amounts to nothing less than a bloodless constitutional revolution. The original New Dealers were aware, at least to some degree, that their vision of the national government's proper role and structure could not be squared with the written Constitution: The Administrative Process, James Landis's classic exposition of the New Deal model of administration, fairly drips with contempt for the idea of a limited national government subject to a formal, tripartite separation of powers. Faced with a choice between the administrative state and the Constitution, the architects of our modern government chose the administrative state, and their choice has stuck. ... The United States Congress today effectively exercises general legislative powers, in contravention of the constitutional principle of limited powers. Moreover, Congress frequently delegates that general legislative authority to administrative agencies, in contravention of Article I. Furthermore, those agencies are not always subject to the direct control of the President, in contravention of Article II. In addition, those agencies sometimes exercise the judicial power, in contravention of Article III. Finally, those agencies typically concentrate legislative, executive, and judicial functions in the same institution, in simultaneous contravention of Articles I, II, and III. In short, the modern administrative state openly flouts almost every important structural precept of the American constitutional order." https://scholarship.law.bu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1941 context=faculty_scholarship
