Is there a synopsis of why this is unprecedented?
The nature of the bureaucracy, especially once they became civil servants. The bureaucracy is supposed to be apolitical and not easily replaced by partisans. The agency heads are political (they are appointed by partisan actors after all), but the line workers are not supposed to be.
Schedule F is meant to change this to permit political appointments.
Project 2025 is non-governmental, but it's purpose is to create a list of partisan actors to fill those roles if they become open (this isn't fear mongering. It's the legit, stated purpose).

This is the answer. Humans are reactionary. Do your fricking job and they won’t have a reason to be.

which is embed party members into high ranking positions within government.
This isn't about "high ranking" positions, which is why it's unprecedented.
Those high ranking positions are appointments and partisan.
This is about replacing tens of thousands of regular workers.

What is factually incorrect in this reporting?
Don't know don't care, it should be a footnote in a local Italian paper that some meaningless powerless youngins were stupid.
It's not like they burned killed and looted over it like the left does globally and regularly and doesn't become an "international scandal everyone of note is reporting on"
Example 1384884771919395 of the world being trash.

Awesome. Can we make it 100s of thousands?

The fact that it's a major international headline (possibly the #1 international headline this morning) should give you pause to ponder why it's not a "footnote in a local italian paper"

What % of those tens of thousands are partisan?

Dc is 95 percent loon. All the positions are partisan appointments.

I don't think Schedule F is going to pass Constitutional muster, so probably not.

Well it's chock full of Marxists now so the system design failed to stop what it was supposed to stop.

It's full of people who want to maintain the size of fedgov, is a better description. In the age of Trump/MAGA, that's no longer a partisan-left position.
MAGA is all about bigger government and intrusion.

Hell, the overwhelming majority of political donations by federal employees goes to the left.
The apolitical arm of the government is highly political, and, once again, you make the argument that the right shouldn’t do what the left has already been doing for years.

Histrionics, especially given the shift in "conservative" politics since 2016
I mean just look at this entire scheme. They're not pushing to get Congress to rescind this power. They are just trying to get their people into the roles to wield the power.
It's standard hypocrisy from the new "conservatives".
If you want to solve the problem of big government, then you have to make government smaller.
Same as the criminal stuff with Trump. If you want to stop wanton and biased prosecutions, strip power from law enforcement and prosecutors and give citizens their freedom (via a more limited government).

Their ignorance and hypocrisy leads to them doing this, I agree

You constantly citing “project 25,” which is a media ploy to distract you from knowing there’s a vegetable in the WH is proof you consume mainstream, leftist news and lap it up like a dog.
