You know, I really would have thought that the Trump administration would have represented the "deconstruction of the administrative state": https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/top-wh-strategist-vows-a-daily-fight-for-deconstruction-of-the-administrative-state/2017/02/23/03f6b8da-f9ea-11e6-bf01-d47f8cf9b643_story.html https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/top-wh-strategist-vo.... This is the common framework that justifies reducing the activity of the US State Department, generally relinquishing the status of the USA as world police, and a sort of libertarian view of personal liberties. In that framework, you'd think the administration would be very against the government monitoring all financial transactions. Trump himself you'd think would greatly enjoy legally being able to anonymously move any amount of money around. Trump can personally direct FinCEN policy as it's part of the executive branch. Yet here we are, the policy is undistinguishable from the Bush or Obama years. There could have been silver linings for personal liberties to this administration if they actually stuck to the principles they claimed.
