…that if I voted Republican, then wannabe tyrants would have the President on speed-dial.

And they were right:

Some people are now calling you a “lame duck” president — but then it occurred to me today: You’re not done. You’ve still got 100 days left in office! And the Supreme Court has just granted you super powers — AND immunity! You don’t answer to anyone. For the first time in over 50 years, you don’t have to campaign for anything. You are the opposite of lame, Joe. And you are not a duck. You, sir, are the President of the United States of America, and for the next 100 days, you have tremendous power. The only people you have to answer to is us. The people who put you there. You have an extraordinary opportunity to make a whole bunch of things happen. Great things. Important things. With a simple stroke or two of your presidential pen, you can make life better for millions of people in ways you never would’ve dreamed possible. You will leave the White House a hero.

So I’ve put together a list — a Bucket List for Scranton Joe — of executive actions that you can legally take today or any day until January 20, 2025. 

 

It’s Michael Moore – Flint Michigan’s own wannabe Mussolini.

And in case you didn’t want to read the whole piece (it’s probably the right call, other than sociologically), here’s where he wants POTATUS to wave his magic wand and do, via executive order, before leaving office, Constitution be damned:

1. Declare the ERA the 28th Amendment.   I never knew the President could unilaterally do that…
2. Cancel all student loan debt, now. SCOTUS be damned.
3. Cancel all medical debt.  Hey, why not unilaterally repudiate all national debt?
4. Close Guantanamo Bay.  OK, that’s something he could legally do.  Not that it’s a good idea, but he could .
5. End the embargo on Cuba.  It’s “to free our souls”.   Because the UN General assembly demanded it – and who has a better hotline to “our souls” than the body where Sudan lectures the US on human rights?
6. Force a truce in Israel:  It’s only sporting to give Hamas time to re-arm, after all.
7. End the war in Ukraine.  Hey, there’s an idea.  As Moore says, Biden should “use” his “foreign policy knowledge and prowess“. Where was this advice three years ago?
8. Empty Federal Death Row. . Note:  Suddenly, Moore cares about what Popes say.
9. Free Leonard Peltier.  You’d think the Innocence Project would tackle that case.  And yet they have not. 
10. Pardon Edward Snowden.   Huh.  You mean, expose Obama-era misconduct?  Remember, fat boy – drapes don’t have shoes.
11. Pardon the self-rightous “nuns” who vandalized a Minuteman missile.  See #9, above.
12. Ban Spam texts.  Eureka!
13. Grant clemency to non-violent drug offenders.  Now he’s starting to sound like Trump.

Hey, at least it’s not another documentary.
