PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN is reportedly planning to push his police reform agenda via an executive order as early as this month.

Some (many) years ago, in reading about the Spanish Inquisition, I came across the statement "We're going to have to kill you to save your soul." More recently a similar statement, “We had to destroy the village in order to save it” was used in reference to the Vietnam war.

Both, apparently, are falsehoods which over time have a memorable phrase taken as fact, and I'm reminded of them every time the Biden administration tries to use executive orders to accomplish his destructive goals.

[Related] Sarah Hoyt has coined a new phrase in response to the Biden administration's overuse of executive workarounds: JUST GO, BRANDON.

I like it.
