In this Labor Day episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano exposes how America’s federal bureaucracy has been hijacked by ideology and activism. From DOJ employees throwing food at National Guard troops to a CDC official resigning over politics disguised as science, Professor Giordano reveals how unelected bureaucrats increasingly see themselves as policymakers rather than civil servants. Backed by studies showing overwhelming partisan bias and donation data proving federal employees lean almost entirely in one direction, he connects the bureaucratic takeover to the same ideological capture we have witnessed in America’s schools. The result is a dangerous cycle of government weaponization and cultural indoctrination that undermines trust, accountability, and the very foundation of our Republic. Episode Highlights DOJ and CDC employees choose ideology over duty, exposing a weaponized government. Studies reveal a partisan imbalance among federal bureaucrats, 95% liberal views, 84% of donations to Democrats. The parallel between bureaucratic activism and the ideological takeover of America’s schools and universities. 📲 Subscribe, listen, and share The P.A.S.
