Evidence is building that the incoming president of the United States plans to expand his powers over government agencies so he can control all their actions.
He has named his choices leaders of those agencies only those who are fully loyal to him, and not to the principles of the agencies they would lead. That includes loyalty to the traditions and principles of America.
Rather, their loyalty should be to their leader, the incoming president, and not to American principles.
All of this assumes that their nominations are approved by the U.S. Senate.
But to bypass that dangerous assumption, the incoming president is encouraging the Senate to take a recess, so he can appoint his favorites directly, and without their input, much less their approval.
Whether the senators take a hike -- even briefly -- remains to be seen.
