Topic: Cigie

The discussion explores how the "New Left" shifted from class struggle to identity politics, using race and religion as unchangeable points of friction. The guests identify the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE) as a "sui generis" entity that answers to no one. They note that the Supreme Court's recent overturning of the Chevron doctrine is a critical step in clipping the wings of this administrative state.

The guests explain that career civil servants who attempt to do their duty are the primary targets of the Inspectors General. They argue that the collaboration to subvert government policy is a criminal offense under 18 USC 1505. The proposed solution is the elimination of the CIGIE to restore the original function of Inspectors General as advisors to agency heads rather than an independent cabal.
