I like that one. And then go through ALL the EOs... every single one of them for every President and revoke a minimum of 90%. There are bound to be some that are essential, however even those can be sent to the Legislature for enactment.
If they are not enacted there, they should also be revoked.
Next, FIRE PEOPLE. Every attorney general, every politically fillable position you can fill. It may be impossible to completely root out the Leftist machine that has been growing in our federal bureaucracies, but we can at least rip out most of the brains by filling those posts with good Conservatives.
One of Bush’s major mistakes, in my view, was he did NOT do that, instead he played Mr. Nice Guy, and vast numbers of Clinton appointees were allowed to stay in their positions, where they cheerfully worked against his policies at every turn! Clean sweep! Everyone must go! This is no time to play nice. If Mitt does not have a dedicated team actively working NOW to identify those positions and select candidate replacements, he needs to get off the stick and do so.
Those two policies, actively and aggressively implemented, will cripple the Leftist apparatus.
THEN, it’s time to tame the bureaucracies. Regulations to on the chopping block. Again, no mercy. Rein in the TSA, downsize the EPA, eliminate the DOE... send all the bureaucrats packing. Get out of the way and American business will get things steaming again.
Real America is like a stallion ready to explode out of the paddock. Give us our head, and hang on....
Agencies not explicitly associated with Articles of the Constitution or the national security interest need to go!
