We are less than two weeks into this presidency and I can feel and see the dramatic changes that normalcy bring. Last night I heard the former head of the FDA who is now in charge of the Covid response saying how many shots have been administered. Real data! OMG.
Did you see President Biden’s signing ceremony? Yeah. Him, at a small desk. His Vice President standing to one side. That was it. No big show. He had a stack of orders. He signed them and then went back to work.
And Jenn the Press Secretary? OMG. A true professional, when she was asked could she say more on a particular topic, and it was obvious to me that she couldn’t and would have to give a bland response what did she do? She said, “Sure,” and then gave a bland response.
Meanwhile the forces of darkness are gathering. White supremacists held a rally in Washington. Trumpers are posting denials on line and attacking the new President. Biden signed an order halting the implementation of any bills the past president signed in the last 60 days of his administration, as his his right under law. What are the Trumpers doing? Talking amongst themselves about how they can’t believe that Biden would deny this or that. This is, of course, not what The President has done. He hasn’t denied any of it. He’s looking at those last sixty days to see if the laws make sense or were they an attempt to screw up the government, in which case he will repeal them.
I now understand “budget reconciliation.” Everything in the Senate under current rules has to pass with 60 votes. Budget reconciliation says you only need 50. You can only do it once a year. It wasn’t done last year so the current Senate can do it for two bills, provided they are tied to the budget. Biden has four big things he wants to get done, one of them is the Covid Relief bill.
I say put the Covid Relief Bill up in the Senate under regular procedures. Let the Republicans in the Senate stand up and say they don’t want to get their constituents vaccinated. If it gets voted down then put it and the other three bills in one super bill and pass them all with one vote on budget reconciliation.
On to future things I’d like to see. I’d like to see traitors to this country rounded up and dealt with. I’d like to see those in Congress who opposed a peaceful transition of power thrown out of Congress and never allowed to run for office again. I’d like to see those who advocated the violent overthrow of the government put in jail.
I think it’s time we address symbols of hate. I don’t think they should be allowed to be displayed in public. If you want to display them in your home that’s up to you, but they should not be visible. In India you can not smoke in public – same idea here.
I think we should ban the ownership of various types of weapons. If you own them and they are used in a crime you pay the price, regardless of who did the crime. As an intermediate step if you want to parade around with AR-15s and the like I think you should realize that authorities will be following and tracking you and if you so much as raise that weapon you will be shot dead, because after all why are you raising the weapon? Obviously to shoot someone. I don’t think the weight should be on the person who is going to be shot to have to wait for you to pull the trigger. This should be especially true on government property. There is a problem with who is doing the tracking and pulling of the trigger. Therefore, let’s have robots do it. See? Simple solution.
And Kevin McCarthy went down to Florida to see what’s his name in his gold gilded home. Did he go down to kiss the ring? To beg him not to do this or that? Who cares? McCarthy is a fool. It doesn’t matter why he went down. He went down. That’s bad enough. The only reason I would let him off the hook was if he was serving papers on Satan.
Now for some good news. A Republican group is taking out billboard ads against Senators Cruz and Hawley plus various House members for inciting the riot of January 6th and or voting against the Constitutional process of certifying the Electoral College votes.
In bad news – the idiot Q-anon woman who is in Congress has been put on the Education Committee. This is the same woman who said that one of the California wild fires was started by aliens shooting lasers from space. This is the same woman who stalked one of the students who survived the Parkland shooting and wanted to know why he wanted to take away her second amendment rights. This is the same woman who has threatened members of Congress and wants to bring her loaded weapon onto the floor of the House. This is the same woman who side stepped the metal detectors in the House.
I say we should start out small with this woman. The next time she sidesteps the metal detectors in the House I propose she be thrown on the ground handcuffed with her wrists behind her back and told that when the police come they can determine what to do. I would suggest the police respond in two hours or so. Then when they do show up maybe she should be taken behind a screen and strip searched.
Then we kick her out.
