Miss President wants to talk to you

But what if we take a different approach?

Instead of establishing a new organization, expanding the powers and responsibilities of an existing one will encounter far less resistance.

The Norton Bureau of Investigation would perfectly fit Louise's requirements.

"no problem!"

Louise immediately made a decision, "I will inform Edgar and have her fully cooperate with you. But what topic would you like to discuss?"

"I"

Before Eleanor could finish speaking, someone knocked on the door again.

“Come in!” Rosef said.

The door opened, and a tall woman in an army uniform walked in.

"Madam President! Army Staff Officer Gloria Maitherin reporting for duty!"

Maiceline stood at attention with her hands behind her back.

Then he said, "We just received news that those veterans have once again formed a relief expedition team and are heading to Washington, D.C."

Chapter Thirty-Five: The Veterans' Expedition

"Veterans' Expeditionary Force?"

Louise felt a headache coming on after hearing Maiceline's report.

What's meant to happen will happen.

The so-called expedition team is a group of retired veterans demanding back wages, with a number of about 2 people.

They adopted a nonviolent non-cooperation approach, setting up a sit-in in Washington, D.C., to exert pressure.

The demand is to receive the government's promised subsidies in advance.

The Hoffer government dealt with a similar situation last year by sending troops, including this Mascheryn, to suppress the protests and drive the people away.

Now, she finally faces Rosef.

What should I do?

First and foremost, it is certain that we must not imitate Hoffer's approach, as he was already in the later stages of his term and had a kind of "giving up" mentality.

It's a completely reckless and self-destructive act, with absolutely no regard for public opinion.

Rosef's rule has only just begun, so it's impossible for her to resort to such methods.

Moreover, even a white hamster wouldn't give such a command.

"The first expedition team is expected to arrive in Washington, D.C. within two days, and veterans from other places will follow one after another."

Maiceline reported, "This expedition will be no smaller than last year's 20,000 people."

After the report, Maiceline looked at President Roseve.

The other person rested their chin on their hand, lost in thought.

There was no panic on his face, but rather a calm and composed demeanor.

"As expected of the president," Mascheryn nodded to herself.

Remain calm and composed in the face of adversity.

The president must already have a solution in mind, right?

This shows that Maiselin has absolutely no idea what Miss Rosef is like.

She had no idea how to deal with it.

He was so shocked that he was paralyzed with fear.

There's a sense of relaxation, like your soul has ascended to heaven but hasn't yet flown back.

"Mr. President, how should we respond?"

Maiceline asked, "Should we mobilize the army first, just in case?"

She has developed a path dependency.

She was in charge of the crackdown last time, and with experience, Maiceline is confident she can handle it even better.

Rosef did not answer.

She was still deep in thought.

Louise could tell that the Miss President was completely bewildered.

We need to save the day quickly!

"I see."

Louise nodded and said, "Our staff will discuss this matter thoroughly with the President and then give specific instructions. Staff Officer Maserene, thank you for your hard work. You can go back and wait for instructions."

"understand!"

Maiceline stood at attention, saluted, and then left.

Once the door was closed, there was no one else in the room.

Rosef finally revealed her true colors.

"Damn it!!!"

She was completely shocked, as if she was just beginning to realize what was happening.

"Twenty thousand people! Are they coming for me? What do we do? What do we do?!"

"Xiao Fu, calm down!"

Louise stepped forward to try and calm the president down, but it was completely useless. Instead, Rosef grabbed her and hugged her tightly.

"Mom! Help!"

No one knew where Rosef got her strength, but Louise, despite her best efforts, couldn't break free.

"Calm down, Xiao Fu! You're the president!"

Louise was truly at her wit's end and could only keep trying to persuade her.

"Twenty thousand people is a serious number, but it's not the end of the world yet!"

"But they came for me!"

Rosef became increasingly horrified at the thought, "What if they suddenly surround the White House and steal my wheelchair? I won't even be able to run away!"

"No way!"

Louise finally understood what Little Fu was worried about.

She solemnly assured them: "Those expeditions will never get close to the White House; they will only camp on the outskirts of Washington, D.C., and will not even have the chance to enter the city center."

"Really?

Rosef was skeptical, but at least she calmed down.

She released Aunt Louise and asked repeatedly, "They really won't take my wheelchair away?"

Rosef is genuinely guilty.

Because she always felt that she was in the wrong for cutting government spending, the veterans organized an expedition to cause her trouble.

Even if you get punched a few times, you deserve it.

"will not!"

Louise was both amused and exasperated; what bizarre reasons were these people worrying about?

At this moment, Eleanor finally found an opportunity to interject.

"Ahem, Miss President, Ms. Louise, may I say a few words?"

Rosef's eyes lit up.

Oh right, how could I forget Eleanor?

With him there, I can escape even without a wheelchair.

Louise breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "Eleanor, just say what you're thinking."

"Then I'll just say it directly."

Eleanor organized her thoughts and expressed them.

"Ms. Louise, we actually anticipated this would happen when we were pushing for the Federal Expenditure Savings Act, and we were mentally prepared for it."

"I just didn't expect them to arrive so quickly."

Louise nodded: "That's right, but there's nothing surprising about it. It must be Wall Street and the Prohibition Association pulling the strings."

"After all, these three bills were passed at the same time. If one of them has a problem, there won't be much resistance when they oppose the other two."

It must be said that Louise's political acumen is indeed very sharp; she can instantly identify who the real enemy is.

Eleanor continued, "I promised Miss Rosef that if these veterans came to Washington, I would step in to help her resolve the situation."

Correct!

Rosef remembered that Eleanor had promised to do so.

However, Louise raised objections.

"no!"

She said, "Those veterans are too unpredictable. If you get involved, you might encounter some danger."

Many veterans harbor resentment, especially after the last crackdown.

It's completely unpredictable what they'll do.
