Lean Mean Agressive Solutions Team

Or, in the DOD vernacular, LMAST. You have to love that Navy training.

I read this description, and it sounds like a well organized, fast moving Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A) Team that hits the ground and swarms the objective, each focused on their tasking.

Mr. Trump’s transition team, like his campaign operation, has had a much smaller staff than previous Republican nominees, and hasn’t produced the voluminous policy proposals and potential legislation demanded by other candidates, including Mitt Romney four years ago.
Instead, their work product is mostly two-page and 20-page memos on specific items: What does President-elect Trump need to know about the Treasury Department? What is the purpose of the National Economic Council? What issues take priority on the first day, the first 100 days, and the first 200 days.
Another benefit of operating in a 24/7/365 tactical environment is you learn brevity, focus, responsiveness. The folks you are working for want clarity, pithiness, actionable insight. ZFG for your intelligence as a wordsmith that waxes eloquent.

In the M&A world, the team was put into play when the deal was taking shape, something similar to a Letter-Of-Intent was signed, and it was time to flip rocks at warp speed to determine what the pig (in the poke) looked like. Health, Potential, and ESPECIALLY Risks and Opportunities.

Spot checking inventory, financial entries, personnel files are the due-diligence side, you earn your keep on the team (and repeat invitations) by finding the nuggets that aren't written down that MATTER.

In similar fashion, this team is flipping rocks, condensing the essentials, and, most importantly, pointing out the Risks and Opportunities.

I love this:
The plan included a hiring freeze on new federal workers, with exceptions for positions in the military, public safety and public health. He promised to eliminate two regulations for every new rule created. He wants a five-year ban on lobbying for officials who leave the executive and legislative branches of government.
What's not to LOVE?

Another hit:
He plans to lift restrictions on tapping energy reserves, approve the Keystone Pipeline, and cancel billions in payments to United Nations climate-change programs.
The New York businessman has vowed to cancel President Barack Obama’s promise to protect from deportation undocumented immigrants brought to the country as children, and start deporting as many as 2 million undocumented immigrants with criminal records.
Can you say MAGA?!!

I saved the best for last .....
A sixth team, run by Ado Machida, a former domestic policy aide to then-Vice President Dick Cheney, is devoted to reviewing Mr. Obama’s executive actions, regulation reform and immigration.
The immigration team is made up of staffers with ties to Sen. Jeff Sessions, the Alabama Republican who has long called for tougher immigration laws, and includes a unit dedicated to figuring out how to build Mr. Trump’s wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
That is enough to give freedom lovers a full-scale stiffy.

Now that the Louey 14 impostor and his shrew are peaceably outbound, the eradication and remodeling can begin in earnest.

There is FAR MORE TO COME .... but this is a HELLEVUA start!

What Does #EWorHW Mean?

It is a tag, short hand for we can do this   " THE EASY WAY or the  HARD WAY " Common phrase, you hear it often in the military. Sometimes it refers to understanding the better technique, "the easy way". More often the phrase is a bit more menacing, it means the subject is going to do it, the ONLY question is which way is it going to be done. Thus, when we talk about Making America Great Again (#MAGA), the Easy Way or Hard Way (#EWorHW).

A Better Way .... Kill People and Break Things

Based on the well documented collapse of the US University system , one of the better (less bad) options is the "Trade School" approach. I say better, because if you end up with a globalist, police-the-world CIC, you run the risk they will get you or your classmates, or your men dead. Yes, I said Men. Like it or not, when it is time to do dangerous things, overwhelmingly, it will be the men who will bleed, be maimed, marred, or dead. Like others, before and after me, I choose to go to a Service Academy. We held up our hands, swore an oath, and gave years of our life doing sometimes dangerous things. Along the way, I got an engineering degree, and a big dose of life. We joked that it was trade school, because our "Trade" was going to far off lands and "Killing People and Breaking Things". That was before the elitists turned the military into  AWWW (Aid Workers With Weapons). As my own grandchildren grow, I'm not sure I recommend that path to them,...

Shock Therapy - the wisdom of Conan

Feeling suddenly afraid because Trump was elected? Is life triggering you? Uncontrollable tears and hysteria? Do you feel like your world is collapsing? Does #MAGA and #DrainTheSwamp make your mind reel? Take comfort in the fact that the strong, determined men millennia ago observed a mindset that struck fear and dread in women and weak men. This is not a new concept, hopefully that historical tidbit will help. As is often (falsely) said, don't worry, you are just going to feel some slight pressure. LOLZ You have to watch Arnold deliver it here Mongol General " This is good, but what is best in life?" Conan  " Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. Hear the lamentations of their women." See, it is really simple, you have been lied to, you have been deceived, and now the light will shine into the darkness.
