The tactical execution unfolding right now is nothing short of fascinating. I really have never paid much attention to politics beyond a few key points, here and there. Today, however, it is impossible to ignore simply because a sheer amount of conspiracies I’ve heard over the years are turning to be flat out true. As Senator John Kennedy of the wonderful Louisiana recently remarked: the conspiracy theorists are up 37 to 0.

For the longest time, I assumed the term “deep state” was just another conspiracy theory—something people threw around to explain away political frustration. But as it turns out, a massive deep state does exist. And it’s not some shadowy cabal in a smoky backroom—it’s hundreds of thousands of people and organizations receiving government funding to remain ideologically aligned despite showing no return on investment for the sheer tax dollars they are milking year after year.

This time around, Trump has recognized that to get anything done, this entire apparatus needs to be dismantled. More importantly, a large number of people across the nation, even like myself, are more awake to it than ever. Omfg it’s real!

DOGE: The Deep State Disruptor

One of the most brilliant moves was repurposing an Obama-era program—originally meant as a bureaucratic patch job for the Obamacare website meltdown—into something entirely new. Yes, you read that right. The team turned an Obama-era program into DOGE.

Back in 2014, Obama created the United States Digital Service (USDS), a well-funded tech initiative buried inside the federal government. By 2025, Trump has rebranded it as DOGE (United States Digital Overhaul & Government Efficiency Service), keeping the funding, staffing, and infrastructure—but giving it a whole new mission:

Find the Receipts.

Because DOGE was already fully funded, staffed, and operational, it was legally untouchable. Trump used 5 USC 3161, allowing him to create temporary hiring authorities, embedding DOGE teams deep inside every major federal agency.

This is 4d chess, my friends.

Each team consists of a lawyer, HR rep, tech expert, and investigator—but crucially, they don’t report to the agencies they are placed in. They report directly to DOGE, effectively bypassing the entrenched bureaucracy.

And here’s where it gets even better. Trump invoked 44 USC Chapter 35, which governs federal IT and cybersecurity oversight. Since USDS was originally an IT oversight body, DOGE was able to access every federal data system.

Yes. Every. Single. One.

That includes agencies handling grants, aid, and foreign funding—the very pipelines that have been feeding the deep state for years. DOGE has just become THE backdoor into every system enabling a quick, easy, and fundamentally flawless audit of everything.

USAID: The First Strike

One of the first major strikes? USAID.

For years, USAID has been a slush fund for ideological operations abroad, funneling billions into NGOs, foreign media, and activist groups under the guise of “democracy promotion.”

In reality, these operations had nothing to do with foreign policy objectives and everything to do with maintaining global ideological influence that aligned with certain political factions. USAID’s network of shadow funding, backdoor deals, and unchecked grants made it one of the most powerful—but least understood—arms of the deep state.

Now, DOGE has full access to USAID’s books, its funding approvals, and its grant structures. They hit it hard and fast.

It’s no surprise that some of the loudest cries against DOGE are coming from the very people who benefited from these secretive funding channels.

But what I find especially fascinating about this is: how did DOGE know to launch such a tactical strike on USAID first? Did they have a tip? Did a whistleblower tell them behind the scenes that huge tax payer funds were going to liberal ideological news orgs? How did they know? Either way, they hit it with precision and exposed everything.

The Transparency Factor: Why DOGE is a Game-Changer

The outrage over DOGE having access to sensitive information is, quite possibly, one of the dumbest arguments I’ve ever heard.

Why? Because before this, who had access to all of this data?

Think about it. Countless bureaucrats have come and gone from these positions. Many of them were hacked. Many went into private business. How much access did they run away with?

We know someone had this data before—but we can’t name them. Because they lurked in the shadows.

This time, however, it’s different.

For the first time ever, we actually know who has access to this information, and we know exactly what they’re trying to do with it.

And that’s way better than anything we’ve had in the past.

DOGE isn’t operating in the dark. It’s not an anonymous network of bureaucrats working behind closed doors. It’s the most transparent process yet. We know the administration in charge, who voted them in, we know the people’s names, and we know the goals. That’s incredible! When have you ever heard similar levels of transparency for this stuff? What’s even cooler is that the DOGE team is sharing live updates on X to showcase how ugly and bad this gets. We need to fix this FAST:

The Treasury does not require outgoing government payments to include a payment categorization code, making financial audits nearly impossible. It also does not enforce the requirement that payments include a rationale in the comment field—currently, no explanation at all is needed. Additionally, the DO-NOT-PAY list, meant to block fraudulent entities, deceased individuals, and those violating Congressional appropriations, is often ignored and takes far too long to update, sometimes up to a year instead of the necessary weekly or daily updates.

4D Chess in Motion

The executive order that made this all happen was airtight—even blocking legal challenges by overriding conflicting executive orders and mandating that agencies comply or risk violating presidential authority.

Congress can’t override it because it wasn’t technically a new program—it was just a repurposed one.

The DOJ can’t sue for overreach because DOGE exists within the exact legal framework that Obama built.

Think about how far ahead this was planned in advance. Anyone who is a management consultant or who has seen large orgs get lazy and stale, is probably watching this in awe. It… it… it’s perfect.

Democrats tried to file legal challenges but ran into standing issues because DOGE was still operating under the original framework.

They literally built the backdoor that is now being used against them.

The Next Move

The deep state can’t stop this without rewriting multiple federal laws. And that would take years.

They’ve legally outplayed the system, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. More importantly, we are not even a full month into this new administration.

Imagine what they have planned next, being this far ahead already.

Buckle up.
