What I want from the next US President.
These are things I can say without allying myself with any one candidate seeking the highest office.
Election season is beginning to winnow down candidates who will carry the agendas of donors instead of the voters.
If I cannot get representation and advocacy from my elected officials, I think they should not tax me to subsidize executive agencies and their government. That, or just don’t tax me and then don’t expect to govern me, because I pay for public service already. It’s included. Change campaign finance laws and stop insider trading necessary to corrupt public officials. Repeal Citizens United because it opened the door to PRC interference and foreign corruption of our public officials. Make K-Street a ghost town. Make K-Street look like Detroit, to the imitation of grand abandoned parking garages.
Enact a public budget that reorganizes government that conforms to the US Constitution and deal with the deficit. We need to get off the International dole, both giving and receiving. Forgive debtor nations with tiny comparative GDPs. No more universal foreign aid to corrupt plutarchs all over the planet.
No more global government encroachment on the US citizen. We already have enough problems with our own US government overreaching into the lives of US citizens without framing the concern of unaccountable global government whom we cannot reach with regulatory enforcement. Likewise, we need to stop geopolitical enforcement of Western rules on countries who can’t or won’t because of civil obligations they possess to their own native constituencies.
Defrock the high priests of foreign policy governance, hand them their hat and send them into the sunset. There are too many foreign policy lawyers advocating ‘for the migrant’ when in fact they are advocating, as the State’s domestic voice, for the interests of transnational drug cartels, external communist governments, active terrorist cells, global monarchies and interests that require zero internal advocate in the US system past 1) the US State Department and 2) their domestic consulates and appointed ambassadors. We don’t need hundreds of different global NGOs subsidized with US tax grants and subsidies to play SME and advocate on our domestic politics, our borders and our family structures. In the United States we are not sold on any one version of public morality, but we are concrete on what immorality is when it plays with the sexes and long term health of children.
Shrink the National Security State to a manageable size, affordable to the accounting of the American people. No more secret programs with bottomless black budgets, playing “hide the UAP” to cover massive graft redirected to ‘other security’. No more payoffs and prop ups of foreign dictators. No more black sites or secret prisons. No more redundant Stasi-derived central planning and informant/extortion farms. No more ubiquitous mass citizen surveillance to keep up with the Chinese. No more repackaged MK-Ultra programs from deep level Hell. No more threats and extortion of US elected officials, their staff or the American people. Finally, no more coups and no more American presidential assassinations, character or in-person or otherwise. No more apologies or spy movie scripts to launder dirty deeds. No more.
Repeal a bunch of laws. Repeal and replace the Homeland Security Act to Emergency Response and Remittance to reorganize agencies, reseat them with other agencies and decentralize law enforcement to make it less onerous and focused on stopping actual crime vs. political enforcement and State sponsored terrorism. Repeal the Real ID Act. Repeal the USA PATRIOT Act. Repeal and replace the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. Repeal Citizens United. Which laws would you like Congress to repeal, which agencies and why? Write a comment or reply with a Note here at Substack.
Make a few new laws. For instance, I’d really like someone to introduce the Pedophile Euthanasia Act, for confirmed jury convicted acts of aggravated child sex assault crime. No death row schedule. They wait for the local hold jail to administer medically assisted euthanasia immediately after the sentencing hearing. No parole. No immunity to pardons - even from the President. Lesser offenses against children commence with the medical removal of sex organs of child sex offenders. OF COURSE, the pro-life caucuses will slow it down and fight with me, but we all need free speech to do that. I invite the debate and continue to urge you to come argue with me.
This is a building document. If I come up with more in the coming months towards the election, I certainly don’t want to limit myself.
Thank you for the benefits of your attention on my personal voting agenda. Let me know what your agenda is too. It won’t be the same as mine perhaps, but we are a big nation filled with amazing people. Each person needs to tell these government employee candidates how to do their job and interview them BEFORE we give them the job for the next four years based on what we need from that position.
Give it your all. After all, it’s your country and your problem. You live with it when it’s not fixed by the person hired to fix it. So fix it.
