Quote of the Day

There are lots of guesses about the order of business on day one, but most agree that Trump will sign orders that include all or some combination of the following: • Reinstitute Schedule F, a job reclassification Trump lackeys put in place at the tail end of his administration to strip federal employees of job protections, and which President Joe Biden rescinded. Maybe for on-brand cruel entertainment, he will announce he’s firing a large number of such employees as well. • Pardon all federally charged and convicted January 6 rioters, effectively putting a paramilitary organization on the streets, answerable to Trump. • Undo Biden’s climate change protections, and instantly reopen federal lands for resource extraction.
Many people believe Trump 2.0 will begin with some orders delivered and carried out at lightning speed. Shock and awe.
