How Much of the Government Can Donald Trump Dismantle? | The New Yorker
The Biden Administration’s recent actions include extending protection from deportation for hundreds of thousands of immigrants, and blocking oil and gas drilling across more than six hundred million acres of federal waters. Donald Trump could immediately move to reverse these actions, but Biden has imposed burdens and costs to deter this. Biden has also been employing the timeworn entrenchment technique of “burrowing in” some of his political appointees, by converting their jobs to civil-service positions so that they can stay on permanently in the administrative state.
And this:
One way to understand the so-called deep state is that it is part of how our federal bureaucracy is supposed to work. The administrative state embodies a constant tension between the democratic accountability that comes with Presidential control, and the political independence of experts, which informs innumerable complicated regulations that govern our lives. That tension is a feature, not a bug. There is a well-recognized trade-off between democratic responsiveness and bureaucratic expertise, which would be terrifying to lose.

What explains the success of these backs are defenses that have grown ripe for them to exploit. A league analysis earlier this year found that teams were placing two safeties deep on 63% of snaps, versus 44% in 2019, in order to counter downfield passing attacks. As part of this strategic shift, there have been fewer players lining up near the line of scrimmage.
