Don’t forget everyone that on March 15th that the Debt Ceiling is back after Ryan, Reid, and Obama crafted a “deal” to suspend the Debt Ceiling until after the new President (which they thought would be a Uniparty loyalist) takes office. Well that day is coming soon and the President will be Donald J. Trump. If the Debt Ceiling is going to be raised then we first need to see the Swamp Drained for real. And even if its raised it won’t need to stay raised for long because once the budget is balanced and the surpluses start piling up then the National Debt will go down, down, down, and our country will be saved for another 100+ years :)

Trump should make it clear to every cabinet member that grant funding to Colleges and universities for research will not only be “peer reviewed” but administratelynreviewed to ensure relevance to advancing hard science and useful contributions for the nation.

Want to affect how universities operate, hit them where it hurts. If research is not funded then faculty are not rewarded.

If Mr. Ebell is going to be the top EPA bureaucrat, then why doesn’t Trump say so?

Regardless, it looks like Mr. Ebell is a step in the right direction.

Otherwise, since the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to address environmental concerns, Trump needs to do one or the other of the following. He needs to lead Congress to successfully petition the states to ratify an environmental protection amendment to the Constitution so that the feds actually have the constitutional authority to do so, or he needs to get the feds out of the business of policing the environment and let the states do it.

He’ll become a lightning rod to occupy the leftist idiots, while Trump gets down to business with real issues like tax reform.

Bernie Sanders, soviet era useful idiot that he was and remains, should be a sober reminder of the fact that there is nothing left of the old lunatic left that is now considered fringe by the left anymore.

The left basically now insists that the center is to the left of LBJ! It’s how they manage to describe any Alinskyite as “right of center”.

Judging themselves and the world with only themselves as a reference they proceed from one madness to the next, ever greater, and it seems the only thing they understand about “progress” is it must mean change from what we were to something else (that they know not what it will be).

Except liberal believers. They’d be hypocrites if they did.

1978 is right about the time the old Vietnam War-protesting hippies decided to “work within the mainstream” and inflict their juvenile BS like burrowing, soul-sucking bugs. They’re getting old now, like Hillary! and John Kerry, and their crap won’t work without “The First Black President” providing them cover. They need to be summarily “retired” and the younger acolytes they’ve infected need to be given the boot. The aims of the Obama Administration have been like a week of “All in the Family” reruns: Racism, gay rights, anti-war, marijuana legalization, environmental “crisis.” It just goes on and on, the old hippies using “The First Black President” to achieve all their goofy goals from 1973. It’s patently obvious.

I’m sure Trump will do more, much more, but ridding us of the 1970s is a HUGE start.

They can reclassify the EPA as a subdivision of the Interior Dept., then eliminate the redundancies.

“Ebell appears to relish criticism from the left.”

Sounds good! This is what we need and Trump is delivering,

Go, President Trump!
