Commentary: The Key to Defeat the Democrats’ Weaponization of Government Lies in Radical Decentralization
Reading Matt Taibbi’s summary how the Democrats weaponized the government against Donald Trump, starting before the election of 2016 and proceeding right up to the present moment, I am reminded once again that the issue is not democracy but “Our Democracy™.”

He's got the resources to start now. Put a team of lawyers digging into laws, regs and codes. Find every way the president can abolish, remove, defund and/or close every single govt employee and agency. So on day one, off to the races.
ReplyDeleteA flurry of activity starting with the ones that can be fired immediately, followed up with the ones the process has to begin.
Sadly, this won’t work. The courts, and those who enforce the courts decisions, are on their side.
DeleteThe biggest truth I saw in that article was ,
ReplyDelete>>There is a good chance that Michael Anton is right. “They Can’t Let Him Back In,” he wrote in July 2022. “The people who really run the United States of America,” he noted, “have made it clear that they can’t and won’t, if they can help it, allow Donald Trump to be president again.”<<
There were other unpleasant realities pointed out too...
A big RIF to reduce the Fed workforce overall, like Ramaswamy said. We can bicker over the number, but not doing that was Trump's 1st mistake in 2016. Lay off a big number and make the remainder do the work. If they don't like it they can quit too. After all, they say the economy is strong and there's plenty of job openings. 1 in 7 of current workers are govt. tax eaters supported by taxing the other 6. And surely 400-500 agencies could be reorged into a smaller number too.
ReplyDeleteWe live in a "could, may, possibility should" fantasy land of hope, but it's simply arm chair quarterbacking. Most Americans are more concerned about the "possibility" of Travis Kelse proposing to Taylor Swift on bended knee while on an elevated platform during the Super Bowl half time.
ReplyDeleteTINVOWOOT. Right Wing, Left Wing, same chicken. And that chicken hasn't given a shit about the average American for a long time. It's taken one hell of a lot of social engineering to get to this point and they're damn sure not going to let go of the reins now. Fat, lazy, stupid and compliant is a hell of a way to end this grand experiment, but here we are.
ReplyDeleteHere we are..
DeleteNot that it will ever happen, but I think there should be a law that doesn't allow government employees to vote.
ReplyDeleteAnd if you don't pay net positive taxes...or maybe own property.
DeleteAin’t nuthin’ gonna happen
ReplyDelete"The Key to Defeat the Democrats’ Weaponization of Government Lies in Radical Decentralization"
ReplyDeleteThe key to defeat Demonrats weaponization of .gov is to kill them all and let God sort'em out. These people, if one can call them that, are parasites in the strongest connotation of that word. They produce nothing yet consume vast amounts of resources that would be better applied elsewhere.
There's going to be a reckoning coming in the next several years as the Nat Debt, already unsustainable, climbs so high that the interest consumes the entire tax revenue collected by .gov. Even today we are having to borrow more fiat bucks to pay that interest nevermind pay down any of the principle or fund any of the rest of most .gov programs.
That's just talking about the debt. Then there's all of the unfunded obligations, like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid and now the once again ever growing Welfare so that people that don't belong in this country can eat and have shelter.
The above is just a small microcosm of the perils that will do us all in no matter what happens in the next election or any subsequent election.
...and those fuckers Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates and Tony Fraudci need to be the first to go and everyone associated with the WEF; Captains of Industry and "elected federal government officials", shortly followed by the entire executive branch to include all of the White House Staff, State Dept., the See Eye Aaa, Eff Bee Eye, the Joint Chiefs and most of the officer corps down to O-3 in all branches. By the time this is all over, Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot will look like amateurs.
Why? Let's remember the words that formed this nation: "When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
These words so eloquently put to paper are even more true today than they were in 1776. They were denied to us on January 6th 2020. Daily, since, we have been subjected to the most incredible idiocy of any government to date. it needs to end and the survivors made aware that it's not going to happen ever again without severe penalty.

Social Security & Medicare have been paid for my whole working life and most people working today continue to pay for it.
DeleteIt pisses me off when I see people roll something I PAID FOR into the free pot they want to see stopped!
