In Taiwan, years back, some civic hackers created the Gov0 campaign (or g0v) in which they got the domain name g0v.tw (it's a zero in the middle) and created alternatives to every gov website of what they would do if they were in charge. Anyone could see the plans by replacing the o with the 0.
Form the equivalent of a "shadow cabinet": have a spokesperson to shadow every significant official in the Administration, and make sure that person speaks out and counters every statement, decision and policy in their "portfolio". Give the media a focus/contact point on everything.
