CALIFORNIA EXODUS: Blackouts, wildfires, homelessness, high taxes and far left politics are driving people out of California.

WUHAN FLU [CORONAVIRUS] UPDATE for September 25, 2020:
The 'pandemic' remains basically stable. Daily deaths remain in the mid-700s, showing that last week's spike has stabilized. I'm still suspicious of reporting, however; the two sites I use for data reporting are still not correlating well.
Moreover, the COVID Tracking Project, from which this graphic is taken, has both changed its format so that the reporting is no longer consistent, and now seems to revise earlier days' data over and over in the following days. I can understand occasional revisions, but not when data a week old is revised over and over. Something's fishy....
But never mind. Trends -- which is what I track -- remain positive, meaning continuing to decline at both sites, and the death rate expressed as a percentage of confirmed cases and total tests performed continues to decline.
In Georgia, confirmed cases, daily deaths, and hospitalizations remain stable or declining.

BREAKING THE ADMINISTRATIVE STATE is key to a successful second term.
After Trump is reelected, he should fire as many as he legally can, and starve the rest. And from the comments:

There are concrete steps that must be taken to bring the Administrative State to heel, if not outright extinction.And that's just a start. Read it all, including the comments.
One is to outlaw all public employee unions. The rationale for this was blatantly obvious even to FDR in the 1930's. Eliminate defined-benefit retirement programs for all federal employees so they have the same retirement planning obligations borne by the rest of us.
The other is to limit the duration of tenure for all federal employees. This is imperative to prevent the emergence of the "in crowd" informal organizational structures that emerge when people in large organizations enjoy long service. This must apply doubly to the Senior Executive Service (SES), which is near the top of my list for outright elimination. There is little doubt the SES is one of the more "swampy" edifices in the federal bureaucracy. This reform becomes even more important as the move to limit the tenure of members of Congress gains traction, because a term-limited Congress would be even more incompetent to control bureaucracies staffed with entrenched bureaucrats who have rigged the system to suit their convenience. At one time, I thought the military might be exempted from such constraints, but the purposeful politicization and corruption of the senior ranks of the military by the Obama Administration and the Swamp at large has prompted me to think these constraints should apply to all federal employees, including the military.
I would also greatly limit the scope of sovereign immunity to bureaucracies and their functionaries, granting individuals standing to sue, with associated costs to be borne by the government, thus moderating the "Process is the Punishment" model so perniciously rampant nowadays.
The nail in the coffin of the Administrative State would be to outlaw agency rule-making that applies to citizens not in the direct employ of the federal government, and abolishing all Administrative Law functions. A salutary side effect of this would be to oblige Congress to busy itself overseeing the bureaucracy and actually crafting self-actuating legislation instead of gassy platitudes thrown over the transom to be made actionable by un-elected bureaucrats. The overt message would be that if Congress itself is not competent to create such legislation, it has no business holding forth on issues to ostensibly be addressed in a given situation.
TRUMP’S NEW COVID-19 ADVISOR cites research showing widespread immunity!
And called out CDC director Robert Redfield as a liar.
Read it all. Carefully. Then read it again.
If the election goes as I hope, Redfield -- and Fauci -- will be (deservedly) kicked out of the Administration and on to the street on November 4th.
