Guantanamo Bay to Shut Down, Terrorists Brought to Mainland
January 20th (Miami, FL) – Just minutes into the beginning of this administration, the new President issued the first of what would end up being ten Executive Orders. While it is traditional for the White House to provide the press with the text of such orders with detailed explanations and examinations beforehand, this President opted to surprise everyone and only produce that information after announcing them to the world. With the ink of the President’s signature still wet on the official documents, many questions remained about not just the logistics of the President’s actions, but on the legality.

254 Days to Impeachment
Just because the President of the United States is unaffiliated, it does not mean that the rest of the Federal Government has suddenly given up all of its partisan favoritisms, partialities, and biases. What happens when an idealist sits in the most powerful chair on Earth while an entire bureaucracy fights to stay relevant?

Vote with your Hate
» KEY POINTS A ranked point system should be created in voting for the Presidential ticket where the people have up to 3 candidates they can select in order of preference. The people should also have a negative vote to remove points from the candidate they do not want to win. Netting the ranked choice points and negative points will determine the next President and Vice President of the United States.

Graduation Day from Electoral College
» KEY POINTS Issues with the Electoral College started to come to a head all the way back in 1796, the 3rd Presidential election and the first after George Washington. The Electoral College was created as a compromise to get more States to sign off on the Constitution and not because it is particularly beneficial or fair. It is very straightforward: all people of the United States — whether they live in the States or Territories — should vote for the President and Vice President directly.

What is the President's Job?
» KEY POINTS Almost all of the promises Presidential candidates make cannot be kept because what they say they will do is the job of Congress. The Legislative Branch has illegally and un-Constitutionally ceded power to the Executive Branch. Each Branch of the Federal Government needs the proper barriers and checks enshrined in the Constitution.

It's Past Time for Term Limits
» KEY POINTS Being a Congressperson was never meant to be a full-time job, nonetheless one that people make a career out of. No person should be able to serve in the House of Representatives or Senate for more than two terms. Term limits should extend to the entirety of all governments where no person should be able to spend more than 25 years at any level of government at any elected, appointed, or confirmed position.

Sorry, we're going to have to cut your hours
» KEY POINTS Having a part-time legislature is very common in the United States and is what the founders envisioned for Congress. Limiting the days, hours per day, and times that Congress can meet will force our representatives to be efficient. Part-time legislatures have exponentially less costs than full-time ones because the latter feel they must always justify their existence.

Payroll Reduction for Congress
» KEY POINTS Congress needs a regular schedule that limits their days, times, and hours that they can work so that speech and rules cannot be used as weapons. While debating and voting, Congress should be able to use any available technology so as not to have a need to always be in Washington, DC. All non-monetary costs like housing should be covered, but pay should be reduced to Living Wage levels and aligned with fewer hours worked.

Real Law about Onion Rings Made From Diced Onions
» KEY POINTS Before any bill passed by any legislature (State or Federal) becomes law, it should be reviewed by the Courts for Constitutionality and alignment with existing law without the need for anyone to sue. All laws should expire after 20 years so they must be re-approved by the current legislature. Existing laws older than 20 years would need to expire on a special schedule until all laws are in regular cycles.

Radical Plan: Make Congress Actually Vote!
» KEY POINTS Many Amendments to the Constitution are needed in order to force bills to be discussed and voted upon in a timely manner. The leaders of each chamber must have their power to control the legislative process severely curtailed so that minority voices can be heard. Legislation must be clean and single clause in order to avoid pork and allow each element to be reviewed and approved on its own. All Congresspeople must vote and cannot avoid their duty to do so.

How to Force Congress to Do Some Work for a Change
» KEY POINTS Legislative rules have not created an easy flow of discussion and movement of bills. Congress has instead unintentionally built weapons to be used against each other. The silence of the Constitution is hindering progress towards an effective Legislative Branch.
