Hear me out.

We should have one ruling body at the Federal Level, and it should be the Senate. There should be no President and no Supreme Court. The body which writes the law should interpret and enforce the law. duh. they are the ones who know what it means, since they wrote it.

Every 4 years, we waste billions and billions of dollars on campaign spending for President, and we have stupid Supreme Court rulings such as the courts saying the Senate couldn't ban abortion by Constitutional Amendment with the Roe vs Wade ruling, which was itself Unconstitutional.

I'm 42 years old, and ever president in my lifetime has been an unqualified LOSER. It's time we completely abolish the office of President.

Some laws which should be fundamental in a proposed new constitution:

1) All provably false religions are banned. You can be a Deist, but you cannot be a Polytheist nor worship a man-god.

2) Abolish the Double Jeopardy clause from the constitution. If new evidence or a later admission shows you committed a crime after you were falsely aquitted, you should go back on trial and go to prison or be executed as your crime deserves. (O. J. Simpson et al).

3) A federal law requiring both State, Local, and Federal budgets to be balanced regardless of circumstances. If they fail to balance the budget they must immediately raise taxes to balance the budget.

4) A federal law limiting military spending to 2 percent of GDP unless engaged in a fully declared war.

4b) A Federal law making it illegal to declare an offensive war without some benchmark of a degree of risk, such as having already been attacked on homeland, but limiting counter attacks to those nations and terrorist organizations directly responsible. This would have prevented the Iraq and Afghan wars, and would pretty much require that we declare war on Saudi Arabia and Pakistan instead, if any war should have happened at all.

5) A Federal Law giving control of Energy Infrastructure to Congress.

Chris Christie Spills The Reason For 'Absurd' Trump Crowd Size Claims

Chris Christie pushed back against claims that “tens of thousands” of people show up at Donald Trump’s rallies, adding that the claims are “all about” the former president’s ego on Sunday.
The former New Jersey governor and ex Trump ally, in an interview with Fox News’ Shannon Bream, called into question the “absurd” estimated number of people at the former president’s rallies.

“Tens of thousands don’t show up anymore, that’s another one of the big lies that happen. Look, all you have to do is look at the pictures,” Christie said.

Christie went on to reflect on how Trump “droned on for an hour and a half” at a recent Iowa campaign stop, adding that his claims about a deal with China was a lie and declaring that he spent “the rest of the time” discussing his indictment.

“This is not somebody who’s fighting for the American people and their future. This is all about his ego.”

Christie, who has taken aim at Trump several times on the campaign trail, added that the former president cares “the most” about undoing his 2020 election loss to President Joe Biden.

CPAC 2023: Kari Lake leans into Trump and stolen election claims during gala

Former Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake heaped praise on former President Donald Trump as a "bull in a China shop" during a gala speech in which she repeatedly rejected the legitimacy of her electoral defeat last year.

Lake contended that there is a battle between the "globalists vs. we the people" and characterized Trump as the great champion on behalf of the people during a keynote address to hundreds of VIP guests at the Ronald Reagan dinner for the Conservative Political Action Conference. Her speech illustrated Trump's dominance at CPAC.

"Donald Trump not only warned us about it — he started to dismantle that entrenched globalist machine," she said. "That man was a bull in a China shop. And I missed that man so much. That's exactly what we need right now."

Harkening back to the American Revolution, she suggested that the country was founded through a fight between "globalists vs. the colonists" and that "we still have that DNA from our founding fathers."

She juxtaposed Trump with President Joe Biden, decrying the latter as weak. At one point, she suggested Biden had "blood on his hands for this young generation" due to the border crisis. She later postulated that Trump could've brokered a peace deal in Ukraine in "24 hours."

Hundreds of people attended the gala at the Potomac Ballroom located in the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center. Attendees were served steak and salmon.
Tickets sold for about $375 apiece but did not appear to fly off the shelf, with some remaining available a few days before the dinner took place. Guests largely dressed more formally than at the run-of-the-mill CPAC events, which were laxer in attire.

'A vital role:' Donald Trump endorses the idea of national abortion restrictions

Before an adoring crowd of religious conservatives, Donald Trump marked the one-year anniversary of the end of Roe v. Wade by adopting new language and endorsing the idea of national abortion restrictions.

Trump, who has previously discussed abortion as more of a state issue, told the cheering members of the Faith and Freedom Coalition "I will fight for you like no president ever" on the abortion issue.

'I'm being indicted for you'
Beyond faith issues, Trump again spent much of his speech asking supporters to stick with him in the face of criminal indictments and investigations.

Telling the pro-Trump crowd that the indictments are aimed at his campaign and its voters. Trump said "I consider it a great badge of courage... I'm being indicted for you."

A federal grand jury in Miami indicted the ex-president on obstruction of justice charges stemming from his removal of classified documents from the White House.

In late March, a state grand jury in New York indicted Trump on charges of falsifying business records to shield hush-money payments.

Trump could face two other trials. He is the subject of investigations in Atlanta and Washington, D. C., concerning efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss to President Joe Biden.

Trump also protested the plea bargain of presidential son Hunter Biden, and accused Biden himself of corruption.

Chris Christie Booed After Criticizing Donald Trump At Conservative Event

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) received a frosty reception Friday at a conservative confab after he criticized former President Donald Trump, one of his rivals in the 2024 White House race.

“I’m running because he’s let us down,” Christie told a crowd of several hundred social conservatives gathered at the Faith & Freedom Coalition conference at the Washington Hilton hotel.

“He’s unwilling to take responsibility for any of the mistakes that were made, any of the faults that he has, and any of the things that he’s done.”
Several angry Trump supporters in the crowd jeered, and one woman yelled, “We love Trump!”

“You can boo all you want, but here’s the thing: Our faith teaches us that people have to take responsibility for what they do,” Christie said in response, drawing a smattering of applause from the audience.

Christie launched his presidential campaign earlier this month, positioning himself as someone who isn’t afraid to call out Trump over his actions as president, including his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U. S. Capitol. The former governor had been an early supporter of Trump but has since said that he made a “fundamental judgment error.”

Moments after leaving the stage Friday, Christie walked into a lobby outside the hotel’s ballroom, where he was greeted by a small crowd loudly cheering him on.
“Christie! Christie! Christie!” chanted a group of about 10 people. It’s unclear if they were part of his team or just a random assemblage of supporters.
“My favorite governor!” one shouted.
