The Washington Times reports that Biden’s budget plan continues one of the fastest expansions of the federal bureaucracy in U.S. history. They are adding about 75,000 more non-defense employees this year alone. That’s a 5% increase.
These are all union jobs.
“The Imperial City on the Potomac keeps growing larger and larger,” said Chris Edwards, editor of DownsizingGovernment.org and an expert at the libertarian Cato Institute.
According to the Washington Times, President Trump left office in 2021 with 2.183 million executive branch employees, excluding the U.S. Postal Service. Mr. Biden oversaw an increase of just a few thousand positions in 2022. He has since kicked things up by adding 88,400 employees in 2023 and asking for 81,700 more in 2024.
His spending plan needs the approval of Congress, but should it hold, it would mean the Treasury and Labor departments will have grown more than 20% over two years. Agriculture, Energy, Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Development, Interior, and Veterans Affairs would have grown by 10% or more, says the Times.
All the departments have increased, but those are the worst. We know the IRS will have 87,000 new employees over ten years.
Despite the open borders and millions of anonymous people pouring through, the Department of Homeland Security only went up 2.8%.
Biden is the worst administrator in US history. He appears to be growing unaffordable union jobs and destroying the private sector. Every one of these expansions represents a loss of freedom. The government is too big. This is why we have unelected bureaucrats running government more than our elected representatives do.

The big fight which McCarthy will likely fail at is to restrict government growth.
Our government grows at >7% a year.
The corrupt senate RINOs oppose cutbacks. And McCarthy does not have the guts or ability to fight.
If Seniors don’t wake up they will be in Soup Lines before 2025. The Government MUST be cut 75% or we will be plunged into Depression and Social Security will be Pillaged to keep all the Illegal Aliens on the Democrat Plantation. If we go into Depression, Social Security and Medicare will be depleted in a year.
There is no Social Security Lock Box, Social Security come out of the General Fund and is just a Book Keeping Exercise. In a crash, the Government won’t be able to borrow any money to pay any benefits. The Government will throw Seniors under the Bus because they are the least likely to take up arms against the Government. Seniors MUST act now while they have Political Power!
As I remember Obama’s solution to the recession we were in when he took office caused by economic factors such as sub prime mortgages put in place by Democrats, was to increase government hiring by 17% while private business was laying off. Later we hear these new hires and many other government employees spent their work days surfing the internet because they had no work to do.
Yes, the intention was and is to starve the private sector and collapse the system with the public sector.
If America is to survive, the Federal Government Bureaucratic State needs to be cut by 75% in October. The Government is sucking up over 20% of the GDP and only should be about 4% with half of that going to the Military. Social Security should not be part of the General Budget and needs to be put back in a Lock Box protected from Deep State Bureaucrats and Politicians.
Traitor Joe is raiding Social Security and doling it out to Illegal Aliens which is why the System is now failing.
One BIG Cancerous Government with mega tumors.
“Biden is the worst administrator in US history.”
Disagree: He is incapable on administering anything.
