In just two weeks, Trump has announced most of his important Cabinet nominations. All of them want to fix the government, cut it down to size and end the lobbyist, special interest control of the White House and Congress. The first hundred days will be filled with the announcement of agencies closing, the none spending of corrupt money allocated by Biden, a military that is really a military not a social experiment.
It is even possible to see Mayors and other elected officials, that try to protect illegal aliens arrested for violating Federal law.
We are witnessing a total transformation of our government. The next step is to work for 2026 to solidify our gains.
