January 20: A partial wish list
By Todd and Erik Gregory

Supreme Court justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, both of whom belong on the Mount Rushmore of Supreme Court justices, have earned a well-deserved retirement. (Preferably, Chief Justice John Roberts retires as well). Let’s get three young constitutional conservatives confirmed to the SCOTUS while we still have a majority GOP senate.

Have Elon Musk, Ron Paul, Vivek Ramaswamy, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and others take a hatchet to the U.S. federal government and its various redundant, nonperforming, and outright destructive bureaucracies. Lay off as many federal employees as possible, and take away their undeserved pensions. Eliminate whole cabinets where possible (the morally noxious, fiscally incontinent, and gender dysphoria-promoting Department of Education is an excellent place to start).

Build a real wall along the southern border; we want deliverables this time, not more excuses about how Congress can’t appropriate the funds or how the chamber of commerce says it can’t be done.

Voter ID/paper ballots/same day voting/citizen only voting on future election days. Make election day a federal holiday, if necessary.

Fire every single U.S. attorney in the U.S. attorneys’ offices of the corrupt and ideologically weaponized Justice Department. Take away their taxpayer-funded pensions, and prosecute the many who torpedoed democracy by engaging in insurrectionary lawfare against a duly elected president and many of his voters from 2016-2020, and in the years since then as well.

#1  -  BALANCE THE BUDGET

[DefiantMassRINO]

1.) Rescind all Obama/Biden Executive Orders.

2.) Clawback any unspent Covid-19 Emergency and Inflation Reduction Money before Dems waste it on more nonsense.

3.) Lock House Members and Senators in the Capitol until they pass a FY2025 Budget with reduced spending.

4.) Proclaim the depleted Strategic Petroleum Reserve to be a "national security crisis"; Declare an "national security emergency" to deal with this "crisis"; Invoke the Defense Production Act using "emergency" powers to expedite the completion of unfinished pipelines.  Maybe slip some power generation and trasnmission assets, too.  We need more electricity to win the AI race.

5.) Have all Federally funded Solar Farm and Wind Turbine Farm projects audited, and cancel those that will not be profitable nor provide a positive return on investment.

6.) Pursue an "All of the Above" domestic energy policy focused on profitable projects with positive return on value.

Taking away civil service pensions is one thing that will not happen.

Only on a case-by-case basis for some pretty extreme fired for cause stuff.

#1 Secure our borders and start mass deportations.

#2 Audit the fed and balance the budget.

True enough.

Stuff like a FEMA official ordering relief workers in North Carolina to skip houses with Trump signs? It doesn't get much lower than that if you ask me.

At least they didn't break out their windows and set fire to their synagogues this time.

That one (or those ones) should leave a sonic boom on the way to the unemployment line.

“This time” being the operative phrase.  They’re working themselves up to it.
