Let’s Return The Government To The People

On Thursday, The American Thinker posted an article suggesting ten ways President Trump can bring our government back to the people if he is elected (His wanting to do that may be the reason some people are fighting so hard to keep him from being elected.)

Here is the list:

  1. Seal the border and deport all 30 million illegal immigrants.
  2. Resurrect the 10th Amendment.
  3. Restructure the Justice Department, the FBI, the CIA, and the Pentagon. Fire the leadership of all four, up to and including the top 100 senior managers/officers of each, with severance packages.
  4. Ban every DEI program and race- or sex-based program in the United States government. Make it crystal clear to Americans that every single job, scholarship, or contract associated with the federal government is based on one single thing: merit.
  5. Abolish the IRS and the income tax and implement a flat tax or, better yet, the FairTax.
  6. Negotiate a peace between Russia and Ukraine. Neither wanted this war and a month after Russia invaded, there was a peace deal on the table that both sides supported until Joe Biden torpedoed it.
  7. Remove the United States from the Paris Climate Accord.
  8. Craft a plan that sunsets every law and regulation in the federal register within a decade.
  9. Pass a law that explicitly states that it is illegal for government agencies to coerce or motivate private enterprises to accomplish desired tasks that are illegal for the government to do on its own.

Every one of these things will bring us closer to the government our Founding Fathers envisioned. If President Trump really wanted to bring us back to the government our Founding Fathers created, he would find a way to overturn the 17th Amendment.

You Really Can’t Make This Up

Yesterday The Conservative Treehouse reported that Jen Psaki is claiming that the crisis at our southern border began with President Trump and that President Biden is simply trying to clean it up. I wonder if even those who only watch mainstream media believe that.

The article reports:

A remarkable display of Alinsky-inspired hubris today from the White House Press Secretary.

“I wanted to provide an update on the situation at our southern border. After four years of an immigration system rooted in destructive and chaotic policies, President Biden is taking the challenge head-on and is building a fair, orderly and humane immigration system; that’s our objective.  After coming into office, uh, our administration immediately jumped into action to address the influx of migrants at the border, something that began during -and was exacerbated by- the Trump administration; er, and wanted to provide data, pieces of data, you may have seen but they’ve come out since the last time we’ve had a briefing in here”…

The article notes the possible explanation for this bit of fiction:

What this tells me is…. in the background political operatives (and polling) are telling the JoeBama administration the border crisis is a toxic issue that will likely hurt the Democrats in the next mid-term election cycle. The White House response to deploy the Alinsky gaslighting is a very familiar tactic when there is urgency amid the liars to get out in front of a politically damaging position.

Unfortunately for Psaki, the reality, facts and a poor decision to give Biden T-shirts to the illegal alien horde, begs to differ.

I suspect that there are a lot of farmers and ranchers in border states who will be voting Republican first chance they get. They are living with the consequences of the insane border policies of the Biden administration.

Enforce The Current Laws–Don’t Scream For Change

Last night I watched a movie produced by the Tea Party called, “The Border States of America.” The movie is embedded below (taken from YouTube).

One of the important things noted in the movie is the fact that we have turned over control of the border to the Mexican drug cartels. They control who crosses, where they cross, and they make a tremendous amount of money on drug smuggling and human trafficking. The farmers along the border are afraid to call the police when they see illegal activity because the cartels have threatened them. If we are to be a sovereign nation, we had better learn to act like one.

A few years ago, someone introduced me to the Cloward-Piven strategy. This is a strategy first proposed in 1966 and named after Columbia University sociologists Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven, The purpose of the strategy is to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse. When I first heard this, I thought it was far-fetched, but looking at the border crisis has convinced me that it may be something I need to revisit.

Last summer we had tens of thousands of unaccompanied children come across the southern border. Those children brought with them diseases and other challenges. They will be a burden on our school systems, our welfare systems, and unfortunately, our criminal justice system–many of these ‘children’ were not children at all, but members of violent Latin American gangs. This influx of illegals does have the potential to ‘collapse the system.’

Please watch the movie, and if you love America, write or call your Congressman and ask that the government secure our southern border before we even discuss immigration reform.
