This includes “shadow banning” which is currently used to pressure private companies to ban individuals from banking, social media, etc.

1. Eliminate Drug Enforcement Responsibilities From the FBI

The FBI must be more focused and accountable. That does not mean that it should be eliminated, but it’s overall mission should be reduced.

All drug enforcement should be transferred to the DEA.
