The audacity displayed by entrenched federal officials is truly remarkable, defying adequate description. Similarly, the establishment media—wrapped in its cozy bubble—plays the role of obedient lapdog, dutifully regurgitating the talking points of these bureaucratic bigwigs. However, there is a glimmer of hope in President Donald Trump, his skilled representatives, and the legion of patriotic supporters who recognize these officials for what they really are: members of a sprawling criminal enterprise, busily lining their pockets while contemptuously disregarding the hardworking American citizens who foot the bill for their lavish lifestyles.
Take the recent drama surrounding the former Coast Guard Commandant Linda Fagan, who, according to the media mouthpieces at NBC News, was treated poorly by the Department of Homeland Security. The narrative pushed forward by NBC paints a picture of a victimized Fagan, claiming she was evicted with only three hours’ notice, yet conveniently sidesteps the fact that her dismissal occurred weeks prior. It seems that NBC believes a bureaucrat should hold onto government housing indefinitely, even after being shown the door.
Trump Delivers Hilarious Punishment to Woke Admiral Who Refuses to Leave Government Home: It sounds as if she wasn’t making significant progress on moving, given that it’s believed all of her household goods were still in the home. https://t.co/fFOyPH00qc pic.twitter.com/hLG4a38qPu

Notably, one of the so-called “friends” of Fagan bemoaned the purported pettiness of the situation, clearly expecting sympathy for someone who had overstayed her welcome. Meanwhile, amidst the empathetic musings, it slipped NBC’s mind to make clear that Fagan had already been terminated with cause, a crucial detail buried deep in the article. To top it off, an unnamed official described her continued occupancy of the admiral’s quarters as akin to squatting, raising eyebrows about the propriety of her demands for special treatment.
The situation escalated hilariously when DHS officials demanded that Fagan vacate her government-provided digs, leaving the door unlocked for them to inspect. Her response? A classic display of bureaucratic bravado, asserting her claim over a residence funded by taxpayers. The sheer entitlement is astounding, as she insists on calling it “her house,” despite it being a government property occupied long after her exit.
Tricia McLaughlin, an Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs at DHS, didn’t hold back on social media as she took aim at both Fagan and NBC’s sensationalist reporting. In a swift takedown, she highlighted the outrageous mischaracterization of the admiral’s quarters as Fagan’s personal residence and pointed out the egregious omission of her dismissal details, which was tucked away in the seventh paragraph. McLaughlin also addressed allegations of incompetence and inappropriate conduct under Fagan’s command, further adding fuel to the fire.
In a world where federal law certainly doesn’t seem to favor the average citizen, it remains to be seen if Fagan will face any repercussions for her extended stay in a house meant for an actively serving commandant. However, one thing is abundantly clear: the entrenched bureaucracy and its allies in the media will go to great lengths to shield their own—fighting tooth and nail to maintain the status quo while ordinary Americans continue to struggle with the ramifications of their decisions. As Trump continues his relentless campaign against the deep state, the absurdity of Fagan’s entitlement only underscores the urgent need for reform.
