YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSen. Chuck Schumer (DNY) on DOGE"Before our very eyes an unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government...if America retreats from the rest of the world, China will fill the void. Russia's influence will grow...Donald Trump does not have the authority to erase an independent agency created by Congress nor can the Department of State absorb USAID, especially because now there's basically nothing left to absorb...This is just the beginning, if DOGE attacks USAID today then you can be sure they'll move onto another target tomorrow. Who knows, maybe it'll be the Postal Service, or the IRS or the Social Security Administration or national security agencies."
