I’m at minute 12 here, and I’ve got to give you one point of critique that towers above everything:
If you’re driven by an earnest desire to change this system, ditch the partisan vernacular yesterday. Affiliating a program with partisan slogans like “America First” will virtually guarantee that nothing resembling it ever gets durably adopted at the level of federal policy. I’ve worked in and near federal politics for a decade and I’m telling you straight, yours wouldn’t be the first, nor the millionth, good idea to die on the altar of politics.
There is a good 10-20 minute briefing in this. You could provide a lot value by clearly explaining current system's stocks, flows, feedback loops. Happy to help you with that if it's of interest.
Next, try small fixes and see how they shift equilibrium.
Hold off on making Gov Newsom czar via FEMA National Response Framework.
