It's been a busy week for the new President.

If you followed Trump, even a little bit, in the two years leading up to last week - nothing he did should be a surprise to you. That is, unless you took him and his rhetoric metaphorically. Or even figuratively.Apparently, no one took himObamaCare D.O.A. - new plan TBD.Federal hiring freeze.But not the military. That's going to get bigger.A whole pile of State Department folks quit/fired ... it was a race to the door.Tears at the EPA, PBS and NPR.No more regulations. Or, you can have a new one, but you have to take 2 away.No more abortion talk for global health assistance groups.TPP is just T.P. (that's Toilet Paper for you folks not into acronyms) now.Green light for the Dakota and Keystone Pipelines.Domestic Steel for those pipes.Green light for new manufacturing facilities.Sanctuary Cities are on notice, but it won't matter too long...He's going ahead with the wall. Yes, that's a physical wall.And there's "Extreme vetting" - in case you made it over the wall. Maybe in an airplane?That last one might be the brick too far for some folks. There's still a judiciary branch of the government, but apparently it's no longer a page in the White House.gov's website. There's a few other pages missing now. Some people noticed these omissions.And no one has noticed how busy the Pentagon has been this week... And they've been really busy.It's been a good week of fundraising at the ACLU and Planned Parenthood though. And folks who make signs for protesters. A banner year. Pun unexpected.
