The blueprint is set to end Joe Biden’s shaky reign in the White House

Stein’s Law holds that “If something cannot go on forever, it will stop.” 

*** and ***

Meanwhile, Dems could have an open primary, with Calif. Gov. Gavin Newsom, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Sens. Amy Klobachur, Elizabeth Warren and Cory Booker, and Pete Buttigieg and other dreamers free to pick up where they left off in 2020. 

Even Sen. Bernie Sanders would probably try again and why not Hillary, too? 

It all sounds far-fetched — until you imagine a Trump-Biden rematch, with Biden hobbled by a terrible first term and both candidates accused of crimes. 

If Democrats stick with Biden under those circumstances, they’ll be inviting the second coming of Trump.

Sounds like we need to put a mandatory retirement age along with term limits amount some of the other changes need to cut the Gooferment down in size and intrusiveness.

At the very least repealing the Seventeenth Amendment would put the State Legislatures back in charge of Senators and eliminate “carpet bagging” individuals from buying seats to the big graft bonanza.

A mandatory retirement age tied to the Social Security “full benefit” retirement age might be a nice touch.

Then kill many if not all of the TLAs (i.e., three letter agencies).   If we do need a small Department of Agriculture to help the States coordinate, then they should reside in the State they are coordinating for but I bet the States could figure out how to do it faster, cheaper, and easier.

Argh!

GOVERNACIDE: The Gooferment should never have the power of life and death

The heinous Buffalo supermarket massacre screams for the death penalty

Politicians, the media and citizens across the nation are united in denouncing the white man who slaughtered 10 black people at a Buffalo supermarket. There is also fury at how he was able to buy the rifle he used months after cops ordered a mental-health evaluation following an earlier threat to carry out a ­shooting.

Yet despite the anger and wall-to-wall media coverage, largely unsaid is what the punishment should be. That’s at least partially because New
York doesn’t allow the obvious answer — the death penalty. 

Although the Empire State has not carried out an execution since 1963, it had the law on the books for many years until 2007. So even if a
county district attorney wanted to seek the ultimate punishment in this case, the state legal code doesn’t allow it.

But federal law does. And if President Biden considers the massacre to be as heinous as he claimed in his Tuesday remarks in Buffalo, he will direct Attorney General Merrick Garland to have federal prosecutors take over the case and, if they win a conviction, seek the death penalty. 

*** end quote ***

I don’t care how “heinous” the crime, and I find this one to be abhorrent, I NEVER want the Gooferment to kill people.  

As a pro-life pro-choice little L libertarian, the Gooferment is immoral, ineffective, and inefficient. As well as untrustworthy. How often do we find that the Gooferment gets things wrong? 

In this particular case, the Gooferment and its “systems” failed to detect and stop this killer. 

Personally, I’d like to have an investigation of when drugs, if any, he was taking. SSRIs?

Let’s lock him up forever, but keep him alive to be studied.  And, as a constant reminder of the evil that he represents.

Besides capital cases, cost a small fortune and take decades. 

I’m only for the death penalty when a “Hannible Lector” type is too dangerous to keep alive.
