So many lefties on here already licking their wounds. Who cares, shove the porn ban and social security strip mining in everyone's face. Old people only care about their social security checks and young people dont want porn to be banned.
Yeah, dude wants to ban porn when he’s been banging pornstars left right and center for decades. Shove that into people’s faces. Where are the PACs when you need them?
People's Action Committee, I'm right here, hanging fliers in old people neighborhoods and any other surface I can find.
Care to link to the flier PDF or image? Would love to look at it.
Its just someone else's picture in a word document with the social security pointed out
Putting political appointees in place of today's career civil service would be terrible. We live in a technological world and neither lawyers or judges can understand the finer points of things like environmental degradation, rocket science or brain surgery.
When I buy food, I'm one of the label readers. A minority perhaps, but with food allergies it's important for me to know what I'm eating. One of the proposals is to change federal labeling requirements to a voluntary system.
Well if they somehow manage to get rid of food labels I guess I'll just die. I always imagined it would be my food allergies that get me in the end.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
I will, however, make one observation: Some on the political right are using the attack to imply that the criticism of Trump’s past efforts to overturn the results of the last election, and any suggestion that he poses a threat to democracy, is now out of bounds.
Earlier this month, Kevin Roberts, Heritage’s president, said that the country is in the midst of a “second American Revolution” that will be bloodless “if the left allows it to be.”
There are many, many things to object to in Project 2025, but I’d argue that the most important thing is right at the front, in the section titled “Taking the Reins of Government.” There’s a lot in this section, but it basically calls for replacing much of the federal work force, which consists mainly of career civil servants somewhat insulated from partisan pressures, with political appointees who can be hired or fired at will.
Trump actually made a significant move in this direction near the end of his presidency, issuing an executive order that created a category of political appointee, Schedule F, which would have allowed the replacement of many career officials with partisan loyalists.
This system had big problems: Many appointees lacked the experience and competence to do their jobs, and the constant turnover was an open invitation to cronyism and corruption.
Remember, during the early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic, Trump openly suggested that he might not help states whose governors didn’t support him: “It’s a two-way street.
The original article contains 958 words, the summary contains 248 words. Saved 74%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
“second American Revolution” that will be bloodless “if the left allows it to be.”
That's such a classic movie scene
"Give us the country and I promise nobody gets hurt."
"Okay, okay. Here you go. Hey, why are you pointing that gun at us? You promised nobody would get hurt!"
"I lied."
