Although this started as a meme, itโs the single most important thing to understand about our politics. When Democrats say that DOGE is a โthreat to democracyโ, what they really mean is that itโs a threat to bureaucracy. When Democrats say that they want to โprotect democracyโ, what they really mean is that they want to protect the bureaucracy. 92% of Washington DC voted for Kamala Harris. The Democrats are the party of bureaucracy, and they use that bureaucracy to fund aligned NGOs, media groups, and ultimately themselves. Their goal is to make the bureaucracy immune from democratic transparency and accountability. The last thing they want is to see corruption exposed because it can only lead back to them.
