Part 7/9:
The Path Forward: Purifying Washington
As the conversation shifts toward potential reform, O’Neill discusses various strategies, including measures that former President Trump could implement to help "purify" the bureaucratic system. He expresses optimism about proposals such as offering exit packages to employees willing to resign, which might help to replace those who resist accountability.
Additionally, O’Neill mentions innovative monitoring strategies being initiated within agencies, such as sending small teams from the Department of Justice to various administrative bodies. This approach aims to create a culture of transparency and oversight within a system that has often operated with minimal accountability.
