If you are not a DC beaurocrat let me tell you the obvious.

The OMB Office of Management and Budget has become the department in which the White House uses to punish, block, defund and compromise every other department in the government.

It targets the EPA, NIH and has even attacked the GAO.

If you think the justice department is politicized the OMB is far worse.
It is staffed with lots of Regent college 20 year olds who assign entire Federal Departments with catch 22 projects of absolute waste and delay.
