What’s the code for Congressional Democrats recently? Obviously, when they don’t find their manner, they attempt an insurrection. At least, by their own concept, it’s an uprising.  ,

This week, not once but twice, Democrats attempted to physically storm federal buildings — first the U. S. Agency for International Development ( USAID ) on Monday and then the Department of Education ( ED ) on Friday. Their indignation? President Trump and Elon Musk have dared to optimize swollen government agencies and coordinate interests to gain Americans. Predictably, the Democrats see this as an all-out abuse on their valued bloated bureaucracy.  ,
This break this down. On Monday, Senate and House Democrats rallied at USAID office, claiming Trump and Musk’s efforts to shut down the company was “unconstitutional”. Their gripe centers around Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency ( DOGE ), exposing all the waste and corruption of USAID.
Led by Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md. ), the Democrats demanded admittance into the tower, claiming they wanted to see first what was happening. But, unlike the January 6 Capitol Riot, safety didn’t allow the crowd burst in.  ,
Barred from entry, Van Hollen and his associates cried bad, calling the move an affront to politics, because what isn’t an affront to politics to them? Maybe they’ve forgotten that being an elected standard doesn’t give you the right to bully national team or ignore basic protection procedures.  ,

Fast forward to Friday, and their dramatics continued at the Department of Education. Congressional Democrats, led by Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif. ), exploited this moment to criticize Trump’s plan to eliminate the division altogether. Waters berated a security guard for doing his job and parroting the left-wing talking point that they were being” silenced” . ,

” I want you to see this ]security guard ] right here who is a federal employee he told us … we pay him, we raise money to make sure that we have a Department of Education, and everybody that’s at the Department of Education is here because we pay for them to be here”, Waters said. ” He’s standing here now blocking the door and he doesn’t give us a good reason why he’s blocking this lock”.
Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-Fla. ) took it further, interrogating the guard over who gave the order to deny access as if that somehow changes the fact that they weren’t supposed to be there in the first place.  ,
” Were you told, are you making this decision to stand in front of this door on your own behalf? On behalf of the Department of Education, were you to appear out here and prevent members of Congress from complying with us”? he asked. ” Were you told to stand around or did you decide to walk around and prevent members of Congress from entering the Department of Education”?

Democrats argue, without proof, that disbanding the Department of Education had hurt children, accusing Republican of neglecting public knowledge. Unfortunately, they ignore decades of national excess and weakness. Trump’s request to gain knowledge to state and local manage is a natural step toward accountability, but Democrats, addicted to unified control, didn’t notice it.  ,
The truth is that both USAID and ED remain as prime example of national incompetence. Trump and Musk are fulfilling their pledges by cutting waste. Democrats, rather than offering solutions, play the victim and engage in political theatre. For all their politicking, their real anxiety isn’t the destroying of swollen organizations, it’s the loss of power and control.
