Ten Commandments in class rooms
Redistricting
Licking Donald Trump’s a-hole
Hanging out with his trial lawyer friends

Not on the list:

Raising the base flood elevation and putting everyone in a "special high risk" flood zone to save the mismanaged flood insurance program probably contributed to foreclosures.
