(48,955 posts)Bannon said some crazy shit at CPAC today. Made me think (again) they don't know what the f*ck they are doing, but they "KNOW" it is right and big - and they have no idea the kind of damage they are likely to wreak. Then I peek in here and see this video. The metaphor is Going full steam ahead/full bore when you have no f*cking idea about what you are dealing with.
Here's the excerpt from an excerpt from TPM: http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/bannon-priebus-at-cpac
"I break it out into three verticals, he said. The first is national security and sovereignty, and thats your intelligence, the Defense Department, Homeland Security.
The second line of work is what I refer to as economic nationalism, he continued, and that is Wilbur Ross at Commerce, Steve Mnuchin at Treasury, Lighthizer at Trade, Peter Navarro, Stephen Miller; these people are re-thinking of how were going to reconstruct our trade arrangements around the world.
The third, broadly, is deconstruction of the administrative state, he said. Later, Bannon expanded on that point: If you look at these Cabinet appointees, they were selected for a reason, and that is the deconstruction. The way the progressive left runs is if they can't get it passed, theyre just going to put it in some kind of regulation in an agency. Thats all going to be deconstructed.
