Mandate for Leadership

2025 - The Conservative Promise.  That's the official title of the publication everyone is talking about, and which I've read so that you don't have to.  You can thank me later.  

Reading the Mueller Report was riveting, a binge-worthy true story of fantastically evil characters, horrifying, and anything but boring.  This thing is a screed written by those evil characters and is equally horrifying.  It was boring, repetitious, and lie filled.  Its terrifying specificity repelled me.  I wanted to stop, and, eventually, I did. 

We really must win this election.

The lies (well, a few of them... you'll see where this goes pretty easily)

The Federal Bureau of Investigation, knowing that claims of collusion with Russia were false, collaborated with Democratic operatives to inject the story into the 2016 election through strategic media leaks, falsified Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant applications, and lied to Congress.

I'll spare you the 5 Hunter Biden laptop/salacious/Burisma/FBI coverup references; I'm sure you can fill in the pieces yourself. 

 The terrifying stuff

The great challenge confronting a conservative President is the existential need for aggressive use of the vast powers of the executive branch to return power— including power currently held by the executive branch—to the American people.  (Is this gobbledygook... folding onto itself and going nowhere?)

Or this one; just substitute any other Department's name and you'll find the same thing.  They each have their own chapter.

At a practical level, not reforming the Department of Justice will also guarantee the failure of that conservative Administration’s agenda in countless other ways. Successful reform will require more than minor peripheral adjustments.  
After that, there are pages and pages about the need to rescind damaging guidance on this that and the other, especially those pesky rules about diversity, education, and inclusion. 

Intelligence and national security will have to be delved into later.  This part has me scared enough.
In organizing (by means of Presidential Directive31) an NSC staff that is more responsive and aligned with the President’s goals and empowered to implement them, the NSA should immediately evaluate and eliminate directorates that are not aligned with the President’s agenda and replace them with new directorates as appropriate that can drive implementation of the President’s signature national security priorities

The Kinder, Küche, Kirche theme runs through it all.  The Comstock Act gets half a page or more, live birth abortions have their place, as does birth control in general.  Here's just a sample.
Marriage, healthy family formation, and delaying sex to prevent pregnancy are virtually ignored in terms of priorities (in grants designed to reduce poverty in teens), yet these goals can reverse the cycle of poverty in meaningful ways. CMS should require explicit measurement of these goals.
Anyone else wondering how they're going to obtain explicit measurement of delayed sex among teens.

There's more.  This is enough for now.

It's not about individuals at this point.  Anyone who thinks the Republicans have nominated a worthy candidate, anyone who thinks the Democrats' guy is old --- there's no reasoning there.  Those facts have been there forever, and the Democrats who are eating their young by going after Joe at this late date are deserving of their own special place in Dante's ninth circle of hell... that reserved for treachery.

What we're voting on is a direction for America.  Whether it is Joe Biden or Kamala Harris or Gavin Newsom, reproductive rights will be safe.  If it's the Lying Liar and any of his minions, women had better watch out. 

Issues not personalities.  What kind of country do we want to be.  I'm going to try that on for a while.
