control

  The electorate has spoken and Trump will resume the office of president. If you look at that map of results a red wave did indeed sweep the nation. It's not official yet, but it sure looks like a trifecta for the republicans. All three branches of government holding that majority vote. It needs to be noted however that they will not have a super majority, their decisions will not go unchecked. The senate and the house will continue to operate as usual and the congress will continue in its' function. All of that just the way the founding fathers envisioned it to be. To those on the left I would say, we elected a president, not a dictator. And project 2025 is not the platform of the republicans. No one is proposing a complete and utter ban on abortion, those medically necessary will continue to be performed, as they always have been. Not once in the history of this nation has a doctor faced prosecution for performing a medically necessary abortion. Abortion should not be an "elective " procedure. 

  The governor of Maryland and the mayor of Baltimore where on television outlining their plans to push back on this new administration. They are not looking for ways to compromise or work together they are preparing a battle plan. Amazing to me that they just come right out and state that intention. Perhaps they have never heard of the old adage, you get more flies with honey than you do vinegar. Yes, the inclusive, empathetic and equitable left is preparing to fight! That's the plan because they are concerned that their free ride may be over. No longer will monies simply be handed out without accountability. The rush is on to spend whatever funds have been earmarked before the end of the year. The democrats have taken Maryland from being in the black, with a "rainy day fund" to operating in the red, with a large deficit. A great portion of the "recovery" funds have been spent providing raises and creating new positions in state government. If the government quits giving them money how are going to pay those employees? It's a dilemma. 

  No one is above the law is a a cry I've heard from the left for the last four years. I guess that doesn't apply if you are an illegal alien denied asylum in a court of law. Well over one million of those people have had their day in court, given every legal option and opportunity, paid for with you your tax dollars and were denied. The "sentence" for that is deportation, a return to your homeland. But, according to the left, they shouldn't be deported. The law says they should but the law doesn't apply to them. Why? Because, according to the left it could negatively impact our economy. What are you saying, they are cheap labor? Yeah, you democrats have always been about cheap labor, historically speaking. You did try separate but equal and had to compromise on that policy. Now Trumps promise to enforce that law by deporting those denied is somehow evil. Enforcing the law is wrong? 

  Yes there will be changes made, new policies enacted and old ones rejected. That's the way it works with free elections. The objection here is to do what is best for our country. That seems to have been lost somewhere along the way. While many women are screaming about bodily autonomy the left appears to have abandoned the concept of a national autonomy. That isn't nationalism, that is common sense. America first! Yes, that's how it should be and no one should be surprised or angered by that. A clear majority has spoken. Time to balance the books. You know it isn't about spending money, it is about how that money is spent. That's the big change about to take place. The republicans will have more control over the purse strings, that sure upsets those on the left. I get it, I hate it when that happens. I really wanted that new toy!
