Stories like this are all the same story.

“If you want to change an agency, introduce a bill and pass a law. You cannot wave away an agency that you don’t like or that you disagree with by executive order or by literally storming into the building and taking over the servers,” Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii) said during the rally.
You replied to this post, maybe you should read it again...slowly.

"USAID was subsequently established by the executive order of President John F. Kennedy, who sought to unite several existing foreign assistance organizations and programs under one agency."

(p.s. The president has total control of the Executive Branch, they are his servers)

You see what's going on here, right? The nonpartisan leadership of the agency is being removed so a sycophant like "little Marco" can be put in charge. Meaning trump and Musk are in charge. You get that, right?
Rubio is no "sycophant". The State Department is the same group of professionals that were there under Biden, although with different/better priorities. You should be cheering that USAID is no longer a democrat slush fund, but will now be used in coordination with State Department priorities.

Top F.B.I. Agent in New York Vows to ‘Dig In’ After Removals at Agency

The top agent at the F.B.I.’s New York field office vowed in a defiant email to his staff to “dig in” after the Trump administration targeted officials involved in the investigations into the Jan. 6 attack — and praised the bureau’s interim leaders for defending its independence.

“Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own, as good people are being walked out of the F.B.I. and others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and F.B.I. policy,” wrote James E. Dennehy, a veteran and highly respected agent who has run the largest and arguably the most important field office in the bureau since September.

Mr. Dennehy, through a representative in New York, declined to comment.

The email, viewed by The New York Times, came after the Justice Department ordered the F.B.I. on Friday to collect the names of bureau personnel who helped investigate the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, raising the possibility that Mr. Trump’s political appointees plan to purge career bureau officials, including rank-and-file field agents. That number could reach 6,000 — or about a sixth of the bureau’s 38,000 employees, according to the F.B.I.


We already know about the illegal firing of 17 IG's, and the removal of top DoJ officials in violation of civil service protections. In retaliation for participating in investigations examining various aspects of trump's illegal behavior. We know about the new admin trying to usurp the authority Congress has over spending by freezing funding (then partially rescinding it after a judge blocked it) and trying to shut down the UDAID office.

USAID takeover is unconstitutional, lawmakers say​


Then there was the offer of early retirement to all government employees. Like other announcements this was changed, in this case to exclude air traffic controllers after two airline crashes and three other incidents involving flight safety. Oh, and a new FAA director was named following the first crash after Musk forced the last guy out.

Then there's the story about the new, insidious way PBS and NPR are being targeted.

Trump moves to fire members of EEOC and NLRB, breaking with precedent


Look, I know trump devotees have been told this was all necessary. Vaguely falling under the broad heading "drain the swamp." You've been told the purge at the DoJ/FBI had to be done because holding trump responsible for crimes is inherently corrupt. An Orwellian twist making the perpetrator the victim.

You say, "we told you it was coming" as though that justifies any of it.

So, is the point to highlight trump's vengeful petulance, incompetence, or his violations of law and precedent? Not really. It's a reminder that while you told us what was coming, we also had a warning. What we said was coming has arrived in vivid, unmistakable form.

Ignoring laws, stifling dissent, purging enemies, replacing them with cronies, consolidating power, all under the guise of making the country stronger when it fact it's doing the opposite. It is exactly, exactly the incremental steps the world's autocrats have taken on their way to absolute control of their countries. It's important that you see it for what it is.

The language in your quotes is overblown. How are any FBI agents “targeted?” The DOJ asked for some names is all so far.
FBI agents have been instructed to detail what they had been working on so agents involved in the J6 investigations can be identified.

Seems as though Trump, and Musk are going to pick every scab, scratch every itch, and in the process uncover the way you progressive liberals wield power in or out of office. That scares the hell out of dishonest dems like yourself....

Just face it Berg, the days of graft, and democrat operational control in or out of power is over...The Levithan's days are numbered, and that will make the Trump Presidency possibly the greatest in history.

USAID come in to existence after Congress passed, and Kennedy signed in to law, the Foreign Assistance Act.

 
How is that wrong?
If I have to explain to you why identifying agents who investigated members of trump's violent mob so they can be fired is wrong you are too far gone to have a discussion with.

You just said they are to be identified. Proof that they will all be fired?

Are they not proud of their work? I hope they didn’t send messages over FBI phones about Trump that they would be embarrassed to see on the news.
 
They're in a position where they'll have to lie on the Fuhrer Loyalty™ tests just to keep their jobs.

They're not supposed to investigate the wrong people now.

What a goddamn shame.

Why shouldn’t every FBI agent that signed off on the Hunter laptop Russian disinformation lie be fired?

Why is this necessary?

Names of FBI agents who investigated Capitol riots to be handed over to Trump DOJ officials​

Because it is part of an ongoing investigation. Whoever leaked this should be fired immediately.

By executive order.


Sure, Trump can't do crap about the Foreign Assistance Act, but he CAN roll USAID's duties and funding back into the office of the Sec. of State.
