I believe the paragraph below is a uneducated guess, not withstanding any other part of the piece. Muskrat did not burn out or get thrown out, he accomplished exactly what he wanted and that was complete and utter decimation of all lawsuits and negative regulations against him and his companies while picking up billions in non bid government contracts. He got out when the getting was good because he knows his crimes will ultimately be revealed.
A government-wide restructuring under the “department of government efficiency” (Doge) was led by the billionaire Elon Musk and resulted in mass federal layoffs and the dismantling of agencies such as USAID. But Trump and Musk fell out and Doge burned itself out.
