Finally: Trump’s EPA director, Scott Pruitt, begins rolling back “weaponization” of his agency that was used to trample property rights

When it became clear that Donald J. Trump would win the Republican Party’s presidential nomination, no shortage of establishment GOP types attempted to convince his supporters that the billionaire businessman and real estate mogul was no Ronald Reagan. Last August pretend conservative Sen. Jeff Flake of Arizona — one of Trump’s most vociferous critics (who […]

So-called “minimum wage” for federal workers hits $100K as bloated government loots America

When a big snowstorm occurs, like the one that hit the East Coast this past week, the powers that be usually put out the word that “unessential” public-sector employees should stay home. That always raises the following question: If they are unessential, why are they on the government payroll in the first place? New data […]

Here’s how the Trump administration is moving AHEAD with health care reform while Congress refuses to act

For seven, long years Republicans in Congress and on the campaign trail promised full “repeal and replace” of Obamacare, but when the time came and voters had given the GOP full control over the legislative process with an unexpected Donald J. Trump win in November, they balked. Far too many Republican members choked. They stumbled. […]

JPMorgan Chase CEO lambasts Congress for stalling Trump growth agenda, says lawmakers too focused on “stupid s**t”

Investigations into ridiculous “collusion” charges with Russia. Backtracking on repeated promises to quickly repeal and replace Obamacare. Dithering on substantial reductions in corporate and personal income taxes. Refusal to adopt regulatory reform. Indifference to the nation’s spiraling debt. These and other issues are emblematic of a dysfunctional Congress in which both Democrats and Republicans (though […]

Team Trump already dismantling Obama’s “legacy” of job-killing rules and regulations

Quietly, behind the scenes, away from the noise and din of the daily media narrative of a “chaotic White House” marred and beset by “problems,” the men and women President Donald J. Trump selected to serve in his Cabinet are doing the work of the American people. Though more Cabinet picks still await Senate confirmation, […]

Dept. of Energy employees “hack” their own internal documents to hide Bureau’s climate change agenda from Trump

Before he actually took office, President-elect Donald J. Trump was very likely under no illusions about the opposition to his policies and views he would face from a sea of Left-wing careerist federal bureaucrats. So it isn’t a big surprise that these careerists would take every opportunity to trip up the president and stall his […]

Gutting this federal law would immediately render the federal bureaucracy largely moot

Few Americans outside of politics have ever heard of the Administration Procedure Act of 1946, but it’s importance on the lives of every single one of us cannot be overstated. That’s because the law, codified in 5 U.S.C. §§ 551-559, marked the growth of the so-called ‘fourth branch of government,’ the behemoth federal bureaucracy, which […]

Anger of Left-wing federal bureaucrats makes it an easy choice for Trump to eliminate incompetence and waste

One of the biggest obstacles President Trump will face when enacting his policies as head of the Executive Branch will be the very federal bureaucracy he manages. That seems absurd to say, given that presidents dictate policy to the bureaucracy, not the other way around. But it really just all depends on who the president […]
