In his first hours as president Friday, Donald Trump ordered federal agencies to “ease the burden” of ObamaCare while his chief of staff directed an immediate regulatory freeze.
Trump was joined in the Oval Office by Vice President Mike Pence, Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and other top advisers as he signed the executive order on former President Barack Obama’s signature health law, which Trump opposed throughout his campaign.
The order directs agencies to “minimize the unwarranted economic and regulatory burdens [of ObamaCare] and prepare to afford the States more flexibility and control to create a more free and open healthcare market.” It also tells agencies to waive, defer or delay imposing any ObamaCare provisions that impose fiscal penalties.
Trump’s order also ordered agency heads to “encourage the development of a free and open market in interstate commerce for the offering of healthcare services and health insurance,” a key component of Republicans’ ObamaCare replacement plan.
In addition, Priebus sent a memo to all federal agencies ordering a hold on all regulations pending review by “a department or agency head appointed or designated by the President.”

In my late teens, we were parked in a suburban neighborhood, as usual, smoking our stuff. Cops pulled up on this rainy night, and got us all out of the car. My buddy had a big 1/2 ounce in his pocket. And a hole in his pocket through which that baggie was clearly visible. The cop told him to take the baggie out of his pocket, while shining his MagLite on it. My buddy said, “What baggie?” The cop said “That one!” and pointed.
They made us tear it up and grind it into the street with our feet.
I’ve got so many good memories of how the cops treated us in the Boston area.
They always let us go. We weren’t the hardened criminals. We were always just smoking and talking, in five cars at once.
One time they caught us doing that, got us all out of our cars, and one of the cops YELLED, “OKAY, HANDS UP!”
We all put our hands up, in a line.
He laughed, and said, “I always wanted to say that! Go home, guys.”
I didn’t pee myself, but I’m guessing a couple of us did.

“There is a buzz in the Border Patrol that we have never heard before,” he rejoiced. “We feel we now have a president who we can trust and who has the political will to secure the border. We expect to see a lot of policies changed that have undermined border security. Right now we just release most of the illegal immigrants we arrest, we are rewarding them for breaking our laws. President Trump’s rise was based on his border security stance.”

A message from OUR Sheriff…
It’s 3AM, Friday, January 20th, 2016. Along with members of the Pittsburgh Police Department, we are being bused into downtown Washington D.C. for today’s Presidential Inauguration. From their digital devices, those around me are watching indelible images of overnight rioting by those we will be confronting in the hours ahead.
We ride quietly, yet anxiously to an undisclosed location on Pennsylvania Avenue where we will remain until sometime Friday night. I’m so proud of the deputies who accompany me on this assignment. Each deputy knows the dangers that lie ahead, yet the enthusiasm in which they accept this particular detail demonstrates their commitment to our country’s democracy.
The black bags strapped to our legs, opposite of our sidearms, contain gas masks that are a startling reminder of a country in turmoil. I’m not naive to believe today’s swearing in of President-Elect Donald J. Trump will immediately reverse this tide. But, I can honestly say we welcome a much needed change in the highest office in the land.
This will likely be my last post of the day. When we chat again, we will do so knowing that we will have a Commander-in-Chief who respects the many sacrifices made by American Law Enforcement across this country everyday. And without the restoration of this law and order, as a society, we are destined for destruction.
God Bless America!!!!

LikeLiked by 3 people
I know a lip reader. We had a deaf guy working on our line, in a busy kitchen, last year.
It’s hard not to try and over-enunciate, or gesture, with this guy, and he understands.
He’s been deaf since a very young age. Best soup cook I’ve ever met: probably because he’s been denied one of his senses, his sense of taste and smell are better.
You don’t treat a guy like that like he’s retarded or something, or even like you were talking to someone hard-of-hearing. You just talk, so he can see you talk. He could say back what you said to him, verbatim.
Even he would say that Michelle said that, because to him it would be obvious. Lip reading is just another sense, one that most of us don’t have. Many people do have that sense, though, because they are deaf.
Aside: he was in my apartment one day, and saw my guitar, and asked if he could play it.
He did, and well. I was astounded, and asked him, pointing at the guitar and my ears, and he said “I just feel it.”
Then he showed me a picture of his wall of guitars and his piano.
A deaf guy is more into playing music than I am. It stunned me, and still does.

I read somewhere that outside of a Trump hotel in DC, one protester was lit on fire yesterday and left burning while the other protesters rang the doorbell and ran to the side of the building. I didn’t hear if the doorman stomped the flaming mess out or ruined his shoes in the process, but I can dream.

Casey at the Bat comes to mind.
Apologies to Ernest Lawrence Thayer:
And now the leather-covered sphere came hurtling through the air,
And Hillary stood a-watching it in haughty grandeur there.
Close by the sturdy batsman the ball unheeded sped-
“That ain’t my style,” said Hillary. “Strike one,” the Law said.
From the benches, black with people, there went up a muffled roar,
Like the beating of the storm-waves on a stern and distant shore.
“Kill it! Kill the Law!” shouted someone on the stand;
And its likely they’d a-killed it had not Hillary raised her hand.
With a smile of pagan charity great Hillary’s visage shone;
She stilled the rising tumult; she bade the game go on;
She signaled to The Donald, and once more the spheroid flew;
But Hillary still ignored it, and the Law said, “Strike two.”
“Fraud!” cried the maddened thousands, and echo answered fraud;
But one scornful look from Hillary and the audience was awed.
They saw her face grow stern and cold, they saw her cankles strain,
And they knew that Hillary wouldn’t let that ball go by again.
The sneer is gone from Hillary’s lip, her teeth are clenched in hate;
She pounds with cruel violence her bat upon the plate.
And now The Donald holds the ball, and now he lets it go,
And now the air is shattered by the force of Casey’s blow.
Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright;
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light,
And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout;
But there is no joy in Progville – mighty Hillary has struck out.

Excellent observation, Cetera.
He knows it’s probably even more boring and exasperating for the baby, and so does what needs to be done, for him and the baby.
I spoke with a friend of mine from my restaurant today, who dislikes Trump to an extreme, illogical, media-fed level. I was telling him about yesterday’s concert and speech at the Lincoln Memorial, and his main beef was that Baron wasn’t present. I don’t know if he was or not, but that’s what he was told, and that’s what his point of contention was. I bet Baron was there, and he was just told that by a network personality, and believed it.
This guy is ten years my senior, and I told him, politely, that his point was rather petty.
He said, “Who knows? Maybe Baron, the little rich boy, doesn’t like his dad.”
I said “Well, that’s a rather petty point to make, bro. The speech was excellent.”
I also spoke of how much damage the Clintons and their staff did on their way out, and he was incredulous, didn’t believe me, and asked me, “If all that theft and damage happened, how come it wasn’t reported?” I referred him to the NYT and WaPo, and he still said, “I watch news all the time, and I never saw it, you can’t believe the internet, and I don’t believe it.”

An American soldier married her, and she was a server at our restaurant for many years.
He came to all the Christmas parties and was the life of the party every year.
She had to quit working last year because of an infection in her foot, which went to the bone. We thought it would be amputated. We prayed, and expected what I saw today. She’s almost spry. She came into the restaurant to eat lunch and bring chocolates. She always brings chocolates.
And she loves America. The 21 gun salute at her hubby’s funeral surprised us all, then brought tears to our eyes.
