On the road back to sanity.

The first month of the second Trump Presidency has been a whirlwind return to common sense and the restoration of traditional values. For four long years the Biden administration intentionally incorporated woke insanity into the fabric of society. Now it is finally being unraveled. Love him or hate him, Donald Trump is leading the charge to re-normalize accepted “pronouns” instead of overemphasizing they/them. He is delivering on his promises, with a mandate from the majority that voiced their displeasure with the Biden/Harris administration on November 6^th. Our forebears entered into a covenant with God to instill Judeo/Christian values into this newly formed nation. Rejecting the evil that is paramount to the woke culture and reinstituting that which God approves, is long overdue.

The rollback of woke ideology is occurring at break-neck speed, and the people approve. Unfortunately, the woke leftists that apparently dominate the democrat party are doubling down on the absurdity of it all. Maine Governor Janet Mills preens to her woke audience, defies President Trump at a White House meeting of Governors, while threatening to see the President in court over her stated disregard of his executive order upholding Title IX and protecting women’s rights. Polls indicate that this is an 80/20 issue with a vast majority of people agreeing that biological boys should not compete against girls and that biological boys should be barred from using women’s locker rooms and bathrooms. Yet, the democrats persist in supporting the insanity that is the transgender agenda.

President Clinton and Obama, both democrats, tried to rein in the outlandish spending of our federal government by streamlining the bureaucracy. Clinton eliminated over 300,000 Federal workers and balanced the budget. Obama eliminated over 39,000. There was no hair on fire, assertions of threats to democracy, claims of benefits being denied, or accusations of violations of the rights of Federal workers. There really is no bias in the media, is there? By their actions, democrats support government waste, fraud, and abuse while they decry the Trump administration’s attempt to create a more efficient government that uses your tax dollars appropriately. Not what I would call a winning issue if they ever hope to regain power.

It has become all too apparent that democrats prefer to defend federal employees that deliberately undermine the current administration, and by doing so, oppose the will of the electorate they are charged to serve. Fraud, waste, and abuse of taxpayer’s money is a personal affront to all citizens of this great nation. Those enriching themselves, their families, and friends should be prosecuted to the greatest extent of the law. The love of money is the root of all evil and those that fall prey to that proclivity will be identified, investigated, indicted, thrown out of office, and learn what life behind bars is all about.

Interest payments on our national debt exceed the annual budget of our national defense. Trillions of dollars are spent without justification or records to where the monies went. Taxes continue to pay for a bloated bureaucracy that continues to grow and siphon the nation’s money that would be spent to positively grow the economy, create wealth, and jobs. This must end. Government must only provide the necessities, efficiently and cost effectively. That is not the case as our government has run amok, ruling rather than serving the people. Those who steal from the people are simply criminals, enriching themselves at other’s expense.

Ronald Reagan famously said, “In this present situation, government is not the solution; government is the problem.” In the forty years since he said this, government is not only the problem, but it also hinders the very structure of this nation. It has metastasized like a cancer leaving surgery as the only option. Government must be cut down to size and begin to function as the founders intended. If the democrats refuse to conform and serve the people, they will be left behind as an insignificant minority that they truly have become. Get on the train or it will pass you by. The people are watching and waiting for a return to sanity from the “loyal opposition.” Unfortunately, I only see democrats doubling down on insane leftist ideology, making them prime candidates for the next species facing extinction, and rightfully so!
