Well, this sounds just spectacular:
The text of the BREATHE Act is available HERE. It calls for some interesting things, including but not limited to:
- Abolishing the Drug Enforcement Administration
- Abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement
- Abolishing funding for drug interdiction efforts
- Slash the budget of the DoD by 50%
- Slash the budget of the Department of Energy by 50%
- Eliminate the Space Force
- Eliminate all modern fighter jet programs
- Unilateral nuclear disarmament
- Withdraw US military forces and assistance from everywhere in the world
- Prohibit Federal police forces from using “less than lethal” systems, “military grade” weapons, drones or BODY CAMERAS
That last one there is interesting. At they same they want to stop Federal police from using “military grade weapons” (which in modern progressive parlance means any semi-automatic weapons) as well as tasers and pepper spray. This will make them *incredibly* vulnerable to criminals armed with little more than ball bats, never mind the automatic weapons that will be available to criminals in abundance. And they want to eliminate body cams, which will show how the federal cops are being set upon by the now-empowered criminals who do not have to worry about actually facing real resistance.
The BREATHE Act also repeals:
- Laws against the material support of terrorism
- Laws against conspiracy and gang offenses
- Laws against prostitution
The Act would raise the minimum age to be tried as an adult to *24*
It would end both the death penalty *and* life sentences
End deportation of illegal aliens who also commit violent crimes
Basically end all bars to immigration
And here’s the really good part: within 5 years of the Act, prison population would be reduced 50%, and by 10 years, *all* prisons would be emptied.
There are 126 pages of this gibberish and I could not be bothered to read all of it. So go ahead and imagine how much of it will be read by those genetic defectives in Congress who will vote for it. Will this pass into law? Almost certainly not. Even as addled as he is, Biden is probably goign to realize that this Act, were it to become law, would result in the prompt destruction of the United States as a going concern. Very few republicans would be stupid enough to vote for it, and a bunch of Democrats would likely realize how nonsensically destructive this BS is. Still: this is the sort of thing that some “mainstream” Democrats such as Pressley and Tlaib are pushing for.
