Great point.
Hey Sport,
Think of it as “a sport”.
Compare it to a team that has been rotten for decades and never won a game, never mind the play-offs. All of a sudden, we have a great team that brutally strikes damaging blows on the opposition players with vigor and regularity.
(actually it’s only a debate team, but they’re killers)
Woot woot woot!
This has to make the hard left go crazy.trump is now using their own rules and regs to counter stuff they did.Hes obamaing obama.Tell me if it gets any better!
Fr mail bud
I HATE McCain’s politics, but I am hesitant to disparage anyone who served.
From where do you get the info that he was never in a Hanoi prison?
If it’s from Gerard “Jerry” W. Kiley, I believe McCain’s account over his.
This is long but im gonna do it anyway its everything already pointed out and does include all eight years!!!

CRA: The “Regulatory Game Changer” That Could Wipe Out 8 Years Of Obama Regs In An Hour

After a pompous, liberal agenda was crammed down the throats of the American people during his first two years in office, President Obama suffered staggering losses in Congress for the next six years that cost Democrats control of both houses. But, heavy Democrat losses, courtesy of an electorate that vehemently rejected a far-left agenda, didn’t stop Obama from continuing to push through countless new rules and regulations from the White House all while pushing his authority to the brink of every Constitutional boundary known to man.
Of course, the problem with “legislating from the White House” is that all those rules and regulations can be undone by the next administration. And, as Kimberley Strassel points out in a Wall Street Journal Opinion piece today, a little know tool within the Congressional Review Act could allow Republicans to wipe out 8 full years of Obama’s liberal agenda, with a simple majority vote, all while preventing similar rules from every being recreated by future administrations.
Todd Gaziano on Wednesday stepped into a meeting of free-market attorneys, think tankers and Republican congressional staff to unveil a big idea. By the time he stepped out, he had reset Washingtons regulatory battle lines.
These days Mr. Gaziano is a senior fellow in constitutional law at the Pacific Legal Foundation. But in 1996 he was counsel to then-Republican Rep. David McIntosh. He was intimately involved in drafting and passing a bill Mr. McIntosh sponsored: the Congressional Review Act. No one knows the law better.
Everyone right now is talking about the CRA, which gives Congress the ability, with simple majorities, to overrule regulations from the executive branch. Republicans are eager to use the law, and House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy this week unveiled the first five Obama rules that his chamber intends to nix.
Obama
So, here’s how it works:
But what Mr. Gaziano told Republicans on Wednesday was that the CRA grants them far greater powers, including the extraordinary ability to overrule regulations even back to the start of the Obama administration. The CRA also would allow the GOP to dismantle these regulations quickly, and to ensure those rules cant come back, even under a future Democratic president. No kidding.
Heres how it works: It turns out that the first line of the CRA requires any federal agency promulgating a rule to submit a report on it to the House and Senate. The 60-day clock starts either when the rule is published or when Congress receives the reportwhichever comes later.
There was always intended to be consequences if agencies didnt deliver these reports, Mr. Gaziano tells me. And while some Obama agencies may have been better at sending reports, others, through incompetence or spite, likely didnt. Bottom line: There are rules for which there are no reports. And if the Trump administration were now to submit those reportsfor rules implemented long agoCongress would be free to vote the regulations down.
But, it gets even better:
Theres more. It turns out the CRA has a expansive definition of what counts as a ruleand it isnt limited to those published in the Federal Register. The CRA also applies to guidance that agencies issue. Think the Obama administrations controversial guidance on transgender bathrooms in schools or on Title IX and campus sexual assault. It is highly unlikely agencies submitted reports to lawmakers on these actions.
If they havent reported it to Congress, it can now be challenged, says Paul Larkin, a senior legal research fellow at the Heritage Foundation. Mr. Larkin, also at Wednesdays meeting, told me challenges could be leveled against any rule or guidance back to 1996, when the CRA was passed.
The best part? Once Congress overrides a rule, agencies cannot reissue it in substantially the same form unless specifically authorized by future legislation. The CRA can keep bad regs and guidance off the books even in future Democratic administrationsa far safer approach than if the Mr. Trump simply rescinded them.
As Strassel points out: “The entire point of the CRA was to help legislators rein in administrations that ignored statutes and the will of Congress. Few White House occupants ever showed more contempt for the law and lawmakers than Mr. Obama. Republicans if anything should take pride in using a duly passed statue to dispose of his wayward regulatory regime. Itd be a fitting and just end to Mr. Obamas abuse of authorityand one of the better investments of time this Congress could ever make.”
Well, they have reasons, but they're all bad.
First they were the party of slavery, then Jim Crow, segregation and the KKK.
Then, in the 60s they were co-opted by the Soviets to divide and conquer, with the likes of Abbie Hoffman, Bill Ayers, Hillary Clinton (and others)...the Black Panthers, the Hippies, Women's Rights, queer rights, baby-killing rights, the green-weenies, anti-war, anti-nukes, anti-God etc.
And that's where they remain today, controlling every city, by hook or by crook (vote early and often) propagandizing lower and higher education (corrupting our children) controlling the news and entertainment.
Of course the Soviet Union crashed to Earth a long time ago, so they muckled on to the next handy group of authoritarian tyrants, the Maniacal Murdering moslems.
So now their main agenda continues to be destroying Christianity, promoting disgusting sexual-perversions, killing babies and destroying all US-cultural conventions and institutions.
I don't know where they were thinking they would go should they manage to turn the US over to the murdering rapists. (of course thinking is not their forte)
The towelheads would kill them first.
>I don’t know where they were thinking they would go should they manage to turn the US over to the murdering rapists. (of course thinking is not their forte)
>The towelheads would kill them first.
They’re nothing but short term thinkers. Such people should never be allowed in power or near a voting box.
Ditto from me.
I hope Trump takes the opportunity to flesh out why he said McAnus is no hero.
The emails implicate...one high-ranking Democratic Senator
Yeah, Shoomuh looks like a child-molester.
Here’s a guy that actually believes we have a “free press” in the US.

Well let's hope. This double standard from Obama's AG's Holder and Lynch undermines the credibility of the Justice System.

I just watched Kellyanne beat the crap out of Wall Ass and tell him why she was kicking his butt as well.
She is tired of the obvious double standard and she told him "there is no difference in the presses' treatment of Trump while he was a candidate or now as President and that is just plain wrong."! She's tired of the double standard and she will not let the msm/dbm get away with it. Poor Chris he was unlucky enough to be there when she unloaded and unload she did.! Her monologue should go down in TV history as the best of the best.

Bill Clinton wanted to build a Wall ......and he called them ILLEGAL ALIENS.
Thunderous applause from the whole Congress

I must have read this article before the election, or one with similar information. A friend on Facebook tried to claim that Trump was a dangerous loose cannon and he must be defeated. I made the point that he had things backwards and Hillary was dangerous and evil. I chose not to go into detail, because the poster is a church organist and I didn’t want to go into the sordid details in front of the type of audience he had. Needless to say, my post did not go over well. Hillary was good and kind and philanthropic, Trump is a misogynist, and anyone who believes otherwise is getting their news from Mozambique, or some such place. (I stayed off Facebook for at least a week.) I hope, eventually, that people will see I was not crazy to post what I did.
More winning.
I heard a report on Rush (I think) with Buck Sexton, and a woman who had written a book on the topic.
It looks like, due to incompetence of the Obama Departments and agencies, that much of the weird “rule-making” can be undone in a matter of hours, and prohibited forever.
Talk about “over-reach”.
Yeah, go ahead, blurt it out.
They need to know that she's a baby-killing lesbian, a murdering communist...and a "congenital liar".
There's plenty of proof, and I have no doubt more will be coming out.
