Mostly performatave shit.  A couple of things stand out.

The Attorney General shall take all appropriate action to create a mechanism to provide legal resources and indemnification to law enforcement officers who unjustly incur expenses and liabilities for actions taken during the performance of their official duties to enforce the law.  This mechanism shall include the use of private-sector pro bono assistance for such law enforcement officers.

a)  Within 90 days of the date of this order, the Attorney General and the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of Homeland Security and the heads of agencies as appropriate, shall increase the provision of excess military and national security assets in local jurisdictions to assist State and local law enforcement.
(b)  Within 90 days of the date of this order, the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Attorney General, shall determine how military and national security assets, training, non-lethal capabilities, and personnel can most effectively be utilized to prevent crime.

Congrats, Skadden and Kirkland & Ellis.  You're going to be providing free legal advice for the next 4yrs (or more) for the most vicious and unrepentant LEOs the country has ever seen.

Somewhere, there are internal discussions ongoing on what the new hourly "rate" will be for this pro bono work.

I mean, holy shit ...

Section 1.  Purpose and Policy.  Safe communities rely on the backbone and heroism of a tough and well-equipped police force.  My Administration is steadfastly committed to empowering State and local law enforcement to firmly police dangerous criminal behavior and protect innocent citizens. 

When local leaders demonize law enforcement and impose legal and political handcuffs that make aggressively enforcing the law impossible, crime thrives and innocent citizens and small business owners suffer.  My Administration will therefore:  establish best practices at the State and local level for cities to unleash high-impact local police forces; protect and defend law enforcement officers wrongly accused and abused by State or local officials; and surge resources to officers in need.  My Administration will work to ensure that law enforcement officers across America focus on ending crime, not pursuing harmful, illegal race- and sex-based “equity” policies. 

The result will be a law-abiding society in which tenacious law enforcement officers protect the innocent, violations of law are not tolerated, and American communities are safely enjoyed by all their citizens again.

Seriously, America, it's time to wake up ...

“I’m a libertarian” may be the biggest political lie of the last 50 years. I haven’t seen a one who has the slightest concern about a right wing authoritarian government.

God isn't this the fucking truth.

None of the “anti-authoritarian libertarian” types are actually against an authoritarian government. They only have a problem with a hypothetical authoritarian government that acts against “real Americans” (good conservative white folks). That government can crush as many minorities and liberals as it wants, and they won’t have a single problem with it.

This is sadly true. Pathetic.

Haha that's basically the only three things anyone could come up with on a Reddit thread I saw the other day. Quite the first 100 days. But of course they are accomplishing all of the insane things they actually wanted to do. They're just not going to list them out for the dumb dumbs to see

That’s because the conservative was supposed to win but since turnip started with his 51st state shit, his numbers have nosedived to the point where he might lose tonight. This was supposed to be a cakewalk for the Canadian conservatives 

Welp…

This exact scenario happened to me, but it was 14 years ago so I was able to have the D and C. If someone had told me I had to wait another week, after confirming that the baby had died, I would have lost my absolute mind and then traveled to another state to take care of it. This is not only dangerous but terribly, terribly cruel.

 

This.  

 

This is what we call penance...

We'll see how performative it is.

A weird amount of suggestions that local and state control of law enforcement will be stripped away and placed under federal control.

Samesies. Always the bridesmaid never the bride. Canadians were sliding right the same way were but threw that lasso around the tree stump just before going over the cliff.

I feel bad for her because you can tell she long since left the ideology(pink hair and arm sleeve out front shoulda told ya). This right here is reason 234 of why we are vacating this state. I cannot and will not watch my daughter suffer like this.

Some of the language like "best practices" is emblematic of performative everywhere it's used.  The epitome of a nonce phrase.

As we have observed, the major federal tool for local law enforcement is money.  So we'll probably get more MRAPs and Stingers and other weapons in the hands of local cops.  That's not good, but probably doesn't change much.

Also, the budget gon' 'splode.
