WHAT TO EXPECT FROM UNELECTED AGENCY HEADS

Call me cynical, but I cannot but believe that the President has ulterior motives behind his decision to allow a certain "Native American" tribe in Wyoming, to kill the American symbol; the Bald Eagle, as a religious right.

He intends to honor a request by this tribe because of their "deeply held religious beliefs" concerning the Eagle.

Well, this Eagle killing religious activity the President has "signed-off" on is the stepping stone which will be used as a leverage for other religious requests.

Federal law prohibits the killing of bald eagles in almost all cases. The government keeps eagle feathers and body parts in a federal repository and tribal members can apply for them for use in religious ceremonies.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has given the OK for an American Indian tribe to kill two bald eagles for religious purposes.The decision comes after the Northern Arapaho Tribe in Wyoming filed a federal lawsuit alleging that the agency‘s refusal to allow them to do so was a violation of tribal members’ religious freedom,
(be certain the President was contacted concerning this matter).

For the Arapaho, this is an annual Sun Dance ritual; the operative word is annual. This precedent will recur each and every year; it has to; how can the federal government deny an identical request in the future?

If there is no way to stop this President or any other President from allowing a group of people to violate federal laws because of religious beliefs, we are on a slippery slope. And it is an even worse problem if Congressionally approved organizations have such autonomy that they can make these decisions on their own. What will be the argument against the same thing happening in the future, for similar reasons?  This "religious action" may find its way into our lives and the eroding of the Constitution in a very serious way: Picture this; One day in the future, a Muslim wants to enact Sharia Law in his community or dare I say the state he governs, and the precedent will find its roots in this Eagle killing religious "waiver" the Fish and Wildlife Service has handed out. THAT'S THE WAY PROGRESSIVES WORK!
They take a hold of a situation that has no reason for change, demonize it and make changes to "fix" the "problems" they manufactured, then impose "improved" rationale; VIOLA, a new way of life for America: no Constitutional Amendments required, just a department the lazy, gutless Congress produced to do their dirty work, which now is autonomous and cannot be stopped without eliminating the department...and when was the last time you heard of a governmental agency being dissolved?

This isn't just about killing eagles. It may be for the Arapaho, but for Progressives.....they never miss an opportunity to make changes to this once great nation, into something we senior citizens have never seen nor could have imagined was coming.

I'm certain there is more to come, but as naive as I am, I cannot even imagine or predict what Progressives will do, or are willing to do.
