If you don't live in Virginia, you may not have heard of or be familiar with Democrat Gerry Connolly, who has almost been in office for 20 years. He's a Representative for Fairfax County, one of Virginia's bluest, saddest, and most corrupt counties.
So, of course, rickety, slippery, ol' Connolly is big mad about Trump shrinking the size of government.
He also doesn't seem to think anyone gave the president authority to do what he's doing ...
Yeah, he's special.
Watch:
Connolly: "There's a difference between cutting waste fraud and abuse, and dismantling whole agencies. No one gave Trump, no one gave Elon Musk that authority. It is unconstitutional. It is unlawful. It is a violation of Article 1. And we're gonna fight it." pic.twitter.com/tqvZugTFij

Gerry, bro, Americans gave Trump this authority when we OVERWHELMINGLY elected him in November.
Take all the seats.
Dept of Ed was created by EO, so it can be shut down by EO.

Democrats REALLY hate being reminded that they work for WE THE PEOPLE, not the other way around.
If dismantling an agency in ot order to cut abuse and waste, then it's fine. Rebuild it without corruption, it is his mandate

Whole agencies are waste and fraud. We have cut whole agencies before. Cry harder.

So many tantrums, so little time.
