There will be, but you have to understand that a lot of it will be things that you won't learn happened until years later.
Sometimes that will be because the captive media refuses to report on it. A lot of the time it will be because in order for it to happen, no one can talk about it.
Here's an example I learned about recently. Back under Bush, the Patriot act made it legal for the government to grab your reading history from any library, without a subpoena. Libraries were required to appoint a Patriot Act compliance officer to handle these requests.
Must libraries did two things in response to this. The first was to stop tracking reading histories. The other was to appoint their compliance officers as demanded... And to make sure that those appointments went to the employee who most recently left.
"Oh, I'm sorry officer, we don't have any way to access that information. No, Jeremy had all the passwords and he quit recently. I've emailed him but he still hasn't gotten back to me. I'll let you know as soon as we can get that information, absolutely."
The thing is, for this to work, no one could talk about it. Library employees discussed it with each other, they shared the idea between libraries, using back channels, but no one made a big song and dance about it because if they did then the jig would be up.
AOC recently commented that a lot of organized resistance is happening that people can't talk about online. That's exactly the sort of thing she was talking about. A lot of similar stuff happened when Trump came into power the last time around. Some of it was reported on, a lot of it wasn't.
It will be happening this time too. Just because you don't see it, don't assume it isn't there.
That's a very good point.
Hence, the plans in Project 2025 to remove people who resist their plans in most bureaucracies and replace them with loyal followers. While they may not be as effective at running the bureaucracy, they will be very effective informants. And the bureaucracy being effective isn't high on their priorities. And on top of all that, their base will approve of the bureaucracies running poorly because they've been taught that they represent government waste. At least until they learn about all the things they do that they never thought about until they stop being done right, on time, or at all.
