In less than 72 hours, Beijing Biden:

—Killed 70,000+ jobs
—Eliminated women's sports
—Invaded Syria
—Admitted he doesn't have a plan to fight COVID
—Broke his own mask mandate EO
—Ended US energy independence

And has the lowest approval rating
of any first day president in modern
history.


1. Don’t know enough to comment. Wont there be other ways the oil gets transported, and those ways require jobs?
2. While I 100% agree with you that if you are born with an XY set of chromosomes you in no way should be allowed to participate in women’s sports, I doubt there will be more than a few that make it to a high enough level to move the needle.
3. Wasn’t aware. Is that bad?
4. Not exactly true. He has a plan. He just admitted it is not likely to work. I can assure you he will take all credit once vaccines/herd immunity bring the infection rate way down
5. If you are expecting ANY politician to not be above the rules he sets for the proletariat you haven’t been paying attention the last 70 years. Denver Mayor travel. News on party. Pelosi hairdo. Too numerous to mention jumping the line to get a vaccine.
6. I am against virtually any policy which has us dependent on imported oil.
7. I don’t care about some poll of his approval rating.

To me you missed his worst decision... allowing unemployed workers to turn down jobs and still keep getting both state AND Federal unemployment benefits.

So you think invading other countries
with our military is a good thing? No
wonder you hated Trump, he pulled
troops out, he was a peace maker.
Something totally alien to Dems.
They line their pockets with Fed
weapons contracts money from
lobbyists. Dems love wars, it makes
them privately rich. How do you
think they come to DC with nothing
and leave 25 years later worth worth
millions.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

How did Biden invade Syria? There are no changes to personnel levels or actions in that country.

Though personally I wish that he would, we need serious increases to presence in Syria and many other countries. I wish that your conspiracy theory was accurate (though shockingly, it is not).

President Trump was weak (in many ways) and scaled back a lot of oversees presences and bases.... Hopefully in time Biden will reverse this weakness and ineptitude (though as of yet he is focused on domestic matters, with the exception of some treaties like the Paris Climate Accord).

The 11,000 keystone pipeline jobs were temporary, and not expected to last a full year.

Quote:
the agency wrote that 10,400 estimated positions would be for seasonal construction work lasting four to eight-month periods. Since the State Department defines "job" as "one position that is filled for 1 year," that would equate to approximately 3,900 jobs over a two-year period.


After that? 50 jobs.

Quote:
The State Department forecasted that no more than 50 jobs, some of which could be located in Canada, would be required to maintain the pipeline. Thirty-five of them would be permanent, while 15 would be temporary contractors.

Those videos are from 2014 and 2013 respectively. I am not sure how this shows what Biden is doing now?

As for the second video "This was with such secrecy that not even his daughter knew he was there until she saw him on Twitter" lol what?

They have to take this down, I can't
see them leaving it up all weekend.


I knew it, lol. They turned off the
comments when the negs hit 50K.
It's at 52K now.


Last night I started seeing it
go from 55K negs back to
50K. Then later it went from
54K back to 51K. They were
manipulating the results
just like they did in the election.
Childish and pitiful, I was
embarrassed for them.

Then today I read an article
that the WH is doing it on all
the videos since Wed. Reducing
the negs to make themselves
look better. Everyone is appalled
but not surprized. This is why they're
doomed for failure, you cannot
run an organization this way.
When you're this crooked people
see thru it because everything you
do is under scrutiny 24/7. This
kind of thing only works if you're
in the shadows. Every admin has
a spotlight shining on it every
minute of every day.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

What should be our Middle East policy?
We should have never invaded Iraq
That's now water under the bridge
No doubt the region was a clusterf**k and now more of a clusterf**k because we invaded Iraq.
What should our policy be?
