Another objection is that it relies on the great man theory, which ignores the real history and contributions of the many because it’s too much causal information to process.

One year after Trump and Vought tried to dismantle the CFPB, it still stands thanks to the nonstop fighting from CFPB workers and advocates. This Valentine’s Day, tell Congress to show working families some love, not Wall Street. Restore CFPB funding now!

The Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act of 1883 created the Civil Service. The great thing about that is you can adopt empirically-based regulations instead of politically motivated kiss-up graft. It’s crazy that in the 21st century we’re adopting non-realism.

The point of a civil service was to avoid the kind of criminality Trump brought to the executive branch. Every single political appointee and DOGE operative who broke federal law must face justice.
