Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dropped a bombshell Thursday, declaring that President Donald Trump’s early accomplishments rival only those of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s legendary first 100 days. Coming from RFK Jr.—a man who’s long championed individual liberties against bureaucratic overreach—this isn’t just flattery; it’s a nod to Trump’s breakneck pace in dismantling the deep state apparatus that’s choked American freedoms for decades. RFK’s own perch at HHS positions him perfectly to witness the Trump machine’s surgical strikes on regulatory excess, from slashing FDA red tape that stifled innovation to turbocharging health policies that prioritize personal choice over nanny-state mandates. In an era where government agencies have ballooned into unaccountable behemoths, Trump’s blitz evokes FDR’s New Deal urgency but flips the script: instead of expanding federal power, it’s about liberating citizens from it.
For the 2A community, this comparison is electric with implications. FDR’s first 100 days birthed the New Deal’s alphabet soup of agencies, many of which later morphed into tools for gun-grabbers—think ATF roots in Prohibition-era enforcement and the slow creep of federal overreach that birthed modern infringements like the NFA. Trump, by contrast, is wielding that same revolutionary energy to fortify Second Amendment protections: fast-tracking concealed carry reciprocity nationwide, defunding anti-gun NGOs embedded in federal grants, and signaling ATF purges of rogue elements who’ve weaponized pistol brace rules and ghost gun hysteria. RFK Jr.’s endorsement underscores a rare bipartisan awakening— even a Kennedy sees the tyranny in administrative state gun control. If Trump’s momentum holds, we’re eyeing not just policy wins but a structural firewall against future assaults on our rights, proving that bold leadership can rewrite the rules in days, not decades.
The ripple effects? A revitalized 2A fortress where red tape burns faster than it builds, empowering everyday carriers from rural hunters to urban defenders. Critics will cry authoritarianism, but history favors the disruptors who deliver: FDR reshaped America leftward; Trump could cement it rightward, with RFK as the unlikely bridge. 2A patriots, this is your cue—gear up, stay vigilant, and watch the swamp drain in real time. Trump’s first 100 days aren’t just impressive; they’re a blueprint for reclaiming liberty.
