I've noticed that all the coverage of the idiocy that is DOGE accepts a set of conservative assumptions: government is too big, bureaucracy is out of control, regulations are presumptively bad, etc. The only question being asked is whether this effort can succeed in its noble goal.
Calling the richest person in the world (who is also a massive racist and far right ideologue)’s attack on the liberal state (worker protections, civil rights, unions, food safety, social security etc) “ambitions to tame Washington’s sprawling bureaucracy” is genuinely evil. We are absolutely cooked
Exclusive: Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are sending representatives to agencies across the federal government, four people familiar with the matter said, to begin preliminary interviews that will shape the tech executives’ enormous ambitions to tame Washington’s sprawling bureaucracy.

A less discussed aspect of normalization of the far right is the attacks on anyone using pre-normalization assessments and terminology.
This has been going on for over a decade, in Europe and the U.S., where the term “far right” is being squeezed tighter and tighter until it only refers to Nazis.
