Education Secretary Linda McMahon said the federal shutdown offers evidence that her agency is “unnecessary.”
In a social media post on Wednesday, McMahon said the shutdown has forced agencies to evaluate what work is really needed. She made the comment days after her department started firing hundreds of workers amid mass layoffs across the government.
“Two weeks in, millions of American students are still going to school, teachers are getting paid, and schools are operating as normal,” McMahon said.
So, you think that Russia and China won’t step in and grab up the spoils and keep the system going? There are plenty of billionaires who aren’t in the US.
There are so many hypotheticals involved in any plausible scenario where the United States government ceases to exist in its current form that it’s pretty worthless trying to guess what other countries or actors will do in response.
I can’t think of one plausible scenario where the US government ceases to exist that doesn’t involve mass death. Think all those aircraft carriers and atomic subs are just going to be quietly decommissioned? I strongly doubt that the Left that couldn’t push past the DNC is going to be able to take control.
