So, the government funds them, the President issued an order to dismantle them, and now another government agency wants the building? That last part seems reasonable.

Whether dismantling them is right or wrong seems to be the real question here.

Both are wrong. The "real question" just isn't about this specific case on its own. In a vacuum, this wouldn't really be news in the first place.

The problem is the pattern that this is an example of, and together with all the other cases, it starts to reveal an image of the USA turning into a cleptocracy.

A Kleptocracy is when the government takes its own buildings from one department and transfers them to another department?

Where's your creativity? Then the other department sells the building "on the private market" (some Musk company) for a "fair price" (Musk makes an offer he can't refuse to himself) and Bob's your Uncle.

Have some patience, sheesh. Rome wasn't razed in day.

[blatantly]

In what f'ng way does it seem reasonable. That is almost colonialist logic.

They invaded the premises.

These people are probably beoynd saving. Up Musks "shit creek" if you will, with no map and no paddle, nor will to find one.
