In this week’s Two Brothers Talking, Don Lemon and I dug into the escalating purges across government. We connected RFK Jr.’s takeover of the CDC with Trump’s attempt to oust Fed Governor Lisa Cook and the firing of the BLS Chief — all part of a broader effort to gut expertise, undermine trust in institutions, and replace their leaders with Trump loyalists.
We unpacked how these attacks fit a pattern: Trump and his allies don’t want independence anywhere in the federal government. They want loyalists who’ll validate their false reality, even if it means purging experts, defying courts, or weaponizing agencies against the interests of the American people.
As Don and I discussed, it’s not just dangerous in the abstract — it’s destabilizing the economy, public health, and democracy itself.
