Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar criticized the Trump administration during a broadcast of CBS News' 'Face the Nation' on Sunday, alleging that the President is using aggressive executive orders to dismantle federal agencies like USAID and the Department of Education because he lacks sufficient legislative support within his own party in Congress. Speaking from Washington, Omar characterized these moves as a strategic bypass of the traditional democratic process, suggesting that the administration's sweeping bureaucratic overhaul is a direct result of being unable to secure a consensus among Republican lawmakers. This push for executive-led restructuring also reportedly includes seeking unprecedented access to Treasury Department records to facilitate a total transformation of the federal workforce. The administrative strategy involves a series of directives aimed at streamlining or entirely eliminating longstanding government departments, a process Omar described as 'steamrolling' through established norms. By targeting the Department of Education and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the administration seeks to centralize control and reduce the footprint of the federal government. Legal experts and correspondents, including CBS News Justice Department correspondent Scott MacFarlane, noted that these actions are being framed by the White House as a necessary step to purge inefficiency, despite the significant legal and constitutional questions they raise regarding the separation of powers. Furthermore, the discussion highlighted a growing friction between the executive branch and the legislative body. Omar’s assessment points to a unique political dynamic where the President is increasingly isolated from the moderate or institutionalist wings of the Republican party, forcing a reliance on unilateral executive action to achieve policy goals. This shift has triggered alarms among policy experts who fear that such measures could permanently weaken the infrastructure of the American civil service and diminish the efficacy of international aid and domestic education programs.
