The Devil’s In the Details

Rick Moran asks in https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2019/02/state_power_now_being_used_to_force_parents_to_transgender_their_kids__or_else.html

…How have we descended so far down into the rabbit hole so quickly when there is no scientific evidence to buttress the arguments of transgender activists and their allies in the judicial system? How can parents be allowed to determine the gender of their child? How can they be punished for refusing to accept this nonsense?…

The problem with the answer he provides in his following paragraph is it is false and in it’s falsity it is too easy to accept. Does he really think LGBTQ activists have that kind of power? Or does he think we think they have that kind of power?

There is power involved but like every dark turn our Country takes the power behind the vile attack on the American family is the Democrat leadership.

The Clintons specifically in this case and it was preventable.

Back in the 1990’s there were some big stories… Princess Diana’s death, OJ and Y2K but none of them bigger than the on-fire financial market or the Clinton impeachment.

The not so funny thing about the impeachment was Clinton’s ratings. From https://news.gallup.com/poll/4609/presidential-job-approval-bill-clintons-high-ratings-midst.aspx

6.Bill Clinton’s average job approval rating for 1998 was 5.7 points above that of the previous year, 1997, which in turn was higher than that of any of the four years which preceded it.

The impeachment story should have left America with at least a sense of the Clinton’s criminal propensity which should have prompted a one and done term limit for them but by golly, general consensus was greedily looking the other way.

The U.S.A. re-elected the UNindicted crime family and the cost of that was heavier than anyone ever thought possible. People still vote democrat so they haven’t yet figured it out.

Maybe a comparison of how good and evil works will help those who hate President Trump and his supporters get a better understanding of what’s at risk.

Back on September 2, 1987 President Reagan issued Executive Order 12607 he titled “The Family”.

In it he outlined requirements to be met in order to ensure that the autonomy and rights of the family are considered in the formulation and implementation of policies by Executive departments and agencies. Those rules were:

(a) Does this action by government strengthen or erode the stability of the family and, particularly, the marital commitment?

(b) Does this action strengthen or erode the authority and rights of parents in the education, nurture, and supervision of their children?

(c) Does this action help the family perform its functions, or does it substitute governmental activity for the function?

(d) Does this action by government increase or decrease family earnings? Do the proposed benefits of this action justify the impact on the family budget?

(e) Can this activity be carried out by a lower level of government or by the family itself?

(f) What message, intended or otherwise, does this program send to the public concerning the status of the family?

(g) What message does it send to young people concerning the relationship between their behavior, their personal responsibility, and the norms of our society?

The last sentence of EO 12607 read, This Order is intended to improve the internal management of the Executive branch and is not intended to create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law by a party against the United States, its agencies, its officers, or any person.

Almost ten years later, Bill Clinton signed Executive Order 13045 entitled, “Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks”.

In it he ordered:

Section 1. Policy.

1-101. A growing body of scientific knowledge demonstrates that children may suffer disproportionately from environmental health risks and safety risks. These risks arise because: children’s neurological immuno- logical, digestive, and other bodily systems are still developing; children eat more food, drink more fluids, and breathe more air in proportion to their body weight than adults; children’s size and weight may diminish their protection from standard safety features; and children’s behavior patterns may make them more susceptible to accidents because they are less able to protect themselves. Therefore, to the extent permitted by law and appropriate, and consistent with the agency’s mission, each Federal agency:

(a) shall make it a high priority to identify and assess environmental health risks and safety risks that may disproportionately affect children; and

(b) shall ensure that its policies, programs, activities, and standards address disproportionate risks to children that result from environmental health risks or safety risks.

1-102. Each independent regulatory agency is encouraged to participate in the implementation of this order and comply with its provisions.

Sec. 2. Definitions. The following definitions shall apply to this order.

2-201. “Federal agency” means any authority of the United States blah blah blah

(b) concern an environmental health risk or safety risk that an agency has reason to believe may disproportionately affect children.

2-203. “Environmental health risks and safety risks” mean risks to health or to safety that are attributable to products or substances that the child is likely to come in contact blah blah blah

Sec. 3. Task Force on Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks to Children.

3-301. There is hereby established the Task Force on Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks to Children (“Task Force”).

3-302. The Task Force will report to the President in consultation with the Domestic Policy Council, the National Science and Technology Council, the Council on Environmental Quality, and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).

3-303. Membership. The Task Force shall be composed of the:

(a) statements of principles, general policy,

(b) a coordinated research agenda for the Federal Government, including steps to implement the review of research databases blah blah blah

(c) recommendations for appropriate partnerships among Federal, State, local, and tribal governments blah blah blah

(d) proposals to enhance public outreach and communication to assist families in evaluating risks to children blah blah blah

(e) an identification of high-priority initiatives that the Federal Government has undertaken or will undertake in advancing protection of children’s blah blah blah

(f) a statement regarding the desirability of new legislation to fulfill or promote the purposes of this order.

3-305. The Task Force shall prepare a biennial report on research, data, or other information that would enhance our ability to understand, analyze, and respond to environmental health risks and safety risks to children. For purposes of this report, cabinet agencies and other agencies identified by the Task Force shall identify and specifically describe for the Task Force key data needs related to environmental health risks and safety risks to children that have arisen in the course of the agency’s programs and activities. The Task Force shall incorporate agency submissions into its report and ensure that this report is publicly available and widely disseminated. The Office of Science and Technology Policy and the National Science and Technology Council shall ensure that this report is fully considered in establishing research priorities.

3-306. The Task Force shall exist for a period of 4 years from the first meeting. At least 6 months prior to the expiration of that period, the member agencies shall assess the need for continuation of the Task Force or its functions, and make appropriate recommendations to the President.

The National Science and Technology Council shall review the plan.

4-402. The plan shall promote the sharing of information on academic and private research. It shall include recommendations to encourage that such data, to the extent permitted by law, is available to the public, the scientific and academic communities, and all Federal agencies.

Sec. 5. Agency Environmental Health Risk or Safety Risk Regulations.

5-501. For each covered regulatory action submitted to OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) for review pursuant to Executive Order 12866, the issuing agency shall provide to OIRA the following information developed blah blah blah

(b) an explanation of why the planned regulation is preferable to other potentially effective and reasonably feasible alternatives considered by the agency.

5-502. In emergency situations, or when an agency is obligated by law to act more quickly than normal review procedures allow, the agency shall comply with the provisions of this section to the extent practicable. For those covered regulatory actions that are governed by a court-imposed or statutory deadline, the agency shall, to the extent practicable, schedule any rulemaking proceedings so as to permit sufficient time for completing the analysis required blah blah blah

The last line…

7-702. Executive Order 12606 of September 2, 1987 is revoked.

If you think the democrat party and their quisling republican cohorts have your best interests in mind, if you don’t understand why the global elite’s moles are taking a stand against a President who is defending the safety and well-being of the American people when they (the moles) never made an effort to stop the criminal Clinton Executive Order wars you ought to ask yourself how much deeper into Third World perdition you are willing to let them take you before you accept delivery of understanding.

Easy answers from hand wringing social media commentators are not providing a path out of the real danger we are facing. Not knowing how far down the rabbit hole we are is a terrible acknowledgement. Not knowing how we got there is a portent of disaster for a nation that is supposed to be free. For all the sacrifices Americans believe they made in defense of our Country we should be able to smell the tyranny the democrats are constantly working to replace our Republic with.

Do you think the tyranny is going to stop if they successfully overthrow the President?

If you are unable to see the difference between the words of Ronald Reagan and the out of the can totalitarian edict of the Clinton’s that replaced them you deserve what is coming. Hurry to get your place in any welcoming city in any sanctuary state you find most comfortable.

Your mind has already found a place in the Gulag of Fools.
