Ron DeSantis Will End the Weaponization of Government
Ron DeSantis has a plan to end the weaponization of government.
“We’re not going to let all this power accumulate in Washington. We’re going to break up these agencies. Some of the problematic components of the DOJ shipped to other parts of the country…We’ve seen, throughout this country, that the DOJ and the FBI are controlled by one faction of our society.” — Ron DeSantis
“If you’re performing poorly, you should be fired. It doesn’t matter if you’re a bureaucrat, or if you’re a political appointee.” — Ron DeSantis
As president, DeSantis will:
• Remove the FBI headquarters and swathes of the DOJ, including the Civil Rights Division, from the District of Columbia
• Bring accountability to the government by firing career employees who perform poorly and revoking the security clearance of those who monetize their information
• Refocus the priorities of the DOJ, FBI, and Intelligence Community to focus on issues matters, such as addressing violent crime, protecting the First Amendment and civil liberties, crimes against children, nation-state threats, and cybersecurity
• Reign in the FBI by moving it under supervision of an assistant attorney general
• Cut the footprint of all agencies in DC by 50%
