DeSantis says as US president he would eliminate IRS, DoE (Energy & Education) & DoC(Commerce)

Doesn't DoE like do nuclear shit?

Feudalism. We already live in a system of neo digital feudalism where you own nothing. DeSatan master of the Dick Handle state is aiming to bridge our digital and analog feudal future faster than it is happening without him.

Maybe he thinks that it’ll just work like an honesty box. That would level things out actually because it does act like an honesty box for the super rich already.

We all buy guns and ammo and go mad max. DOJ exists but if there are enough crimes, it won't be paid enough to handle them all. Also, people would just kill cops with ACAB mentality. They'll run out eventually.

DeSantis is a Harvard law school grad and Navy lawyer, he absolutely has an idea what all of those governmental entities do, this is just him and the GOP trying to normalize the fascistic accumulation of power, step one of becoming a dictatorship.

Also this is the GOP's plan to do exactly that:

Project 2025

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/conservatives-aim-to-restructure-u-s-government-and-replace-it-with-trumps-vision

It's just a step by step to purge the government, then whatever else, of undesirables while making an effort to destroy our government one piece at a time. Fascistic Libertarian hellscape here we come! (Also this is nothing new from them, just more open fascism)

No idea what DoC does either, clearly. This is the problem with these people- no idea WTF they're talking about and nobody holds them to account for that.

Most people don’t and it makes me sad. Our National Labs are fucking treasures but so few people know how much of an impact they have on our technology and lives.

Yeah.. same exact thought when I read the article.

Yeah, so what does he want to do with nuclear material along with all of the research around the country? I don't think people know that Energy is responsible for our nuclear stockpile. Not Defense.

Naw he'll just make the military responsible for all the nuclear stuff. It's the standard GOP response.

It's more that he wants to destroy the regulatory systems that prevent companies from doing anything they want. This is a big step for fascism. Hitler and Mussolini both deregulated the markets and privatized everything they could. Fascism is simply Capitalism run rampant. After that they usually invade another country and create a slave labor force, which is why he wants to "go to war with the cartels."

As president I promise there to be no president.

Finally, a president true to their word

I've seen over 200 PragerU videos and they literally believe that it was a better time back then, and would actively invite a lower quality of average life if it meant they could execute the gays/asians/blacks

They miss it

Rule as* corporate barons

It's right on-brand for the Republican platform.

I mean that's been their goal for decades. You see it plainly in their attempts on the Post Office and Social Security. They want to privatize everything. Strip the government for parts and sell it all to private corporations. No Department of Energy? Guess we'll have to just let the power companies manage our grid with no oversight. No Department of Education? Guess your only options for education are for profit private schools if you can afford to attend them. No IRS to collect those pesky and complicated income taxes? Guess we'll have to switch to collecting everything via sales tax. Oh what's that? Not enough money? Good thing we have this Social Security trust fund that's just been sitting here not being used for Wall St speculationcollecting dust.

"I like him because he says what he means, unlike other politicians" -too damn much of the voting population

Come on now, that's not fair, if a wet saltine was my only food, I would choose it over starving. If DeSantis was the only candidate I could put on the ballot, I wouldn't vote.

But he'll have the backing of the entire Republican party once Donny passes away.

If I can't get my social security I'll substitute robbing banks to support my retirement.

Remember when forgetting an item on a list would get you kicked out of the running for president?

And, fiscal responsibility!

It hasn’t been the party of law and order for decades at this point.

Nixon showed the cracks, Reagan opened the floodgates, and the Twice-Impeached One showed how far they can push people.

Shhhh. Hes brilliant and should keep telling the general public what they plan to do to make their lives incredibly worse, lol.

So... the GOP base, then.

The aim is to starve out communities that rely on it, and sic the military on dissenters

As there were none before Jekyll Island it would be entirely possible to not have it again. But it's too late and your country will go bankrupt most likely by the end of this decade.

Yeah and with no taxes the government would have no money and default within a month and the country would crumble within a year and be conquered by Russia of all places within two.

There are reasons we pay taxes. Taxes are not bad. Tax rules where the rich don't pay ARE bad

Just have the nuclear weapons program under the department of housing and urban development.

Yep.. More evidence, not that we needed it, that he is a complete moron

Some are able to write as well. Not all, really 😅
