Music to my ears.  If we got rid of the EPA and Department of Education, in two weeks we'd have a cure for cancer and be flying around in anti-gravity vehicles.  These two departments have spread mass stupidity and have wrecked our culture and economy.  They really do need to go.

QuoteFormer Secretary of Education Betsy Devos believes that the department she once led should be abolished.

Devos, who spent four years as the Education secretary during the Trump administration, made the remarks at the inaugural Moms for Liberty summit on Saturday, according to the Florida Phoenix.

"I personally think the Department of Education should not exist," Devos told the mostly conservative crowd in Tampa, Fla.

Devos was a leading proponent of "education freedom" during her time in office, promoting vouchers to allow families to choose their children's school.

In a speech in 2020, she said, "I fight against anyone who would have government be the parent to everyone."

I am so looking forward to the return of sanity.

I have been saying this since the department was founded by Carter. I think Devos was a very unappreciated member of Trump's cabinet.

Excellent.  And after we wipe our hands o fthese 2 scourges, could we PLEASE totally eliminate the Federal Reserve and the IRS?

Pretty please?

Cut the strings on all federal monies sent whether to states or schools or highways, etc.  I can not help but feel if the feds lose that bit of control maybe there will not be so many handouts.

The Fed uses it like a blivit to hold States in control. No road improvements if you don't do as we demand.

Annnnnddddd, while we are doing housekeeping... (I'm on a roll now)...

How about we shut down ALL immigration for the next 10 years while we attempt to clean up the mess we already have.

How about we cut off ALL money sent to other countries...ALL ALL ALL foreign aid, and let the chips fall where they may.

Term limits for all state and federal Congress critters.  I'm open to how many years someone should be allowed to serve.  What say you?

Age limit on ALL Supreme Court Justices, state and federal.  Forced retirement.  These people are appointed, not elected by We The People.

Eliminate ALL Affirmative Action programs and requirements in government jobs, military, college admittance, and any company that takes money from the federal government.  By the way, if a company can't survive without the money from the government then let them fail and be replaced by companies that are owned/headed by people who know how the hell to run a successful business.  Affirmative Action should have had an expiration date to begin with.  It has now been 60 years, for Pete's Sake.  Three generations of false favoritism.  If people are too stupid to have pulled themselves out of chronic poverty by now, why should we continue to be their crutches?

Did I leave anything out?

I've actually converted on this one.  I used to be a big proponent for term limits, but as time passes and we've learned about the commie-controlled election system, it makes sense to me that term limits would be a band-aid.  The people should be who determines term limits, and that can only happen with secure elections.

I'm OK with keeping in line with the founders on this.

I'd vote for you.

Hint, Hint......get out of the United Nations

      This one needs to be near the top of the list.

Bronx!  Thank you.  GOOD ONE!

And get the UN out of New York.  Implode that asbestos-laden structure and rebuild another skyscraper...low-rent retirement community ONLY for American Veterans and/or their spouses. Owned and operated/managed by Veterans ONLY.  Employing Veterans ONLY. 

Make the first 3 floors retail space, and the next 2 floors Medical offices, open to anyone.

Never served in the military? You can still shop there or go to a doctor there.  But only Vets can live there or be employed from the 4th floor up.
