Huzza huzza! Yesterday marked the 100th day of our blessed new Golden Age when muscular leadership officially returned to Elonica! Sometimes I can’t help but pause to thank providence for bringing us The Leader and the president he purchased just when he did. Our nation was in a terrible state. Yes, on Election Day inflation was at 2.4%; GDP was +2.4; unemployment, especially for Blacks, was at record lows; violent crime and fentanyl overdoses were declining; the stock market was at record highs. But underneath these Radical Lunatic Left statistics, a horrible poison was overspreading the land. The people grew tired of struggling to pay for eggs while government bureaucrats and other DEI hires got rich working from home. And then there’s the illegals – taking advantage of Biden’s geriatric weakness to cross the border in hordes to commit violent crime while laying claim to our social safety net. Many of us did not realize how dire our situation had become until The Leader and his sidekick president took the country in hand.
It hasn’t been easy to reshape the government that failed us so miserably. The Founding Fathers did not anticipate a leadership team like The Leader and Cheeto, so possessed of brilliance and machismo and talent, so beloved by the people that a band of patriots nobly suffered unfair imprisonment after storming the Capitol on their behalf. Because governance of this quality was unknown 250 years ago in the age of Washington and Jefferson and Adams and Hamilton, the Fathers created a Constitution that shared power and authority among three co-equal branches of government. In their well-meaning vision, no single individual (or, as in the current case, two individuals working in sync) could usurp power bequeathed to the other two branches. But the Fathers didn’t anticipate how low the country would sink or how vital it would become to consolidate all power in the hands of the only two people who can save us.
Fortunately, for the survival of the country, The Leader and his elected mouthpiece have been savvy enough to seek out the soft spots and loopholes in the Constitution. It turns out that under exigent circumstances – emergencies and other national threats – the Executive can extend his power. He can sideline Congress and ignore the courts. In only 100 days, beginning on Day 1, The Leader and his majordomo have given a master class in how to circumvent the no-longer-relevant-or useful separation of powers codified by the Founders. Here are the Executive Actions they are using to do it:
Even the most radical naysayer has to admit that this is one of the best examples in history of divide and conquer. The Leader uses DOGE to dismantle and dispirit government bureaucracy while his president promulgates a cascade of Executive Actions. It’s everything everywhere all at once. The Founding Fathers would be proud of the ways in which the government they created is evolving to allow uniquely talented leaders to assume full control. Things will be better now.
But Elonica is not perfect yet. Here’s a new one to watch:
I can taste our Golden Age just around the corner.
