A regulatory pause is a common tradition among incoming presidents to ensure that the unfinished policies from the prior administration align with the new one. In many cases, there are no substantial disagreements among the two administrations and the policies can continue on their normal path. But the pause gives incoming officials a chance to weed out the actions that go against the current president’s stance.

Oh I would agree that is so.

But I also believe that there are people who want to come to the USA and here in Canada because they want to go where there is a Capitalist free market economy. They want to be successful entrepreneurs and business owners. They want their children to have those opportunities as well. And of course many are escaping an certain type of political system for what we can only assume is, to them a better political system.

Do you miss Trump yet?

Most of this has already been debunked, but ok, thread moves quickly, is split in two on top of that and you might have missed... well... everything.

How much of this can you back up, I dare you

[Moonlight]

Unfortunately no one has to back anything up in this era of fake news.
Is Biden going to get the same treatment from the right wingers now because the lefties sure stuck it to Trump didn't they?.

[Skybird]

For a start I give Biden the same that I gave his predecessors: 100 days. That his imminent successor did not take even 100 days to unmask himself, is not Biden's fault.

That style and tone have changed dramatically, can be seen already now. And I like this moderaterness and decency in manners much better than the brutal proletarianism of the now gone one.


Manners are social grease. They make things and interactions easier.

It appears to me that the US has plenty of oil independence.

That is fair and I am willing to wait and see. But if the Executive Orders signed by Biden on his first day are not an anomaly then we don't have to wait 100 days. Biden's policy plans are pretty obvious.

Are you gonna go right to the triple dog dare?


1. He revoked the Keystone XL permits - that's roughly 11,000 direct jobs that would have been created, plus approximately 60,000 indirect jobs (i.e. in related industries such as the companies that make the pipes, make the tools, etc.)


The UAG union (who endorse Burden last summer) apparently is having buyer's remorse:

As is the AOPL:


https://aopl.org/stories/aopl-lament...s-on-first-day




2. Women's sports?


https://nypost.com/2021/01/21/bidens...eld-for-girls/


I think I'll see if my high school football lineman and lacrosse playing son wants to throw on some lipstick and compete against the girls in girls lacrosse...


3. Invading Syria: You don't have to believe that a "large" convoy means hundreds of vehicles. You just have to understand that sending *any* convoy into Syria is a bad idea.



https://www.bizpacreview.com/2021/01...power-1020071/


Discounting that the Syrian government are garbage humans, the *only* reason for this escalation is for this (going hand-in-hand with cancelling of the Keystone XL pipeline project):

4. National Guard - I'm not gonna bother linking to any stories - you can do the google yourself to see that they kicked the guard out of the Capitol - a 40 degree F garage is no place for them to rest and sleep - its not as if they are in a foxhole in the Ardennes...


5. No plan to fight COVID.



https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/22/bide...al-months.html


Of course - Fauci went off-script just prior to this:


https://news.yahoo.com/fauci-refutes...223548275.html


6. Mask mandates:


https://www.newsweek.com/joe-biden-m...morial-1563657


7. Energy independence:


https://framinghamsource.com/index.p...crisis-issues/


There's a lot there - but note the revocation of Trump EOs in Section 7 - most importantly - right there in black and white at the top of the article is the attribution to the Burden administration.


8. Killing diabetics:

You really think Burden is gonna last 100 days? We've already got proof that he has handlers feeding him info in an earpiece. We've had proof all year long that he is suffering from some form of mental degradation. We have a whistleblower who worked on his campaign claiming they "called a lid" so often and so early because they didn't want people seeing his dementia, not always successfully - at one point he thought he was campaigning against Gary Hart in the 1980s... This same whistleblower claims that interns would be sent to pick up his Namenda prescription under false names and that staffers actually sat around a conference room table to discuss which adult diapers he should wear - so that they were less visible, would be least likely to leak, and least likely to make crinkle-crinkle noises while he moved.



Face facts - Burden is exactly that - a Burden on Americans who are already suffering under his first batch of EOs; a burden for his handlers who are doing the bidding of an unelected communist oligarchy; and a burden on Heels Up Harris who is visibly champing at the bit until they can 25th Amendment him.

And?

I know what an EO is Skybird. I don't understand the link.

Yes, I expect that Trump will be vindicated in the end just like he has in every other Democrat witch hunt these past four years.

Likely as not but he better find some better lawyers than Rudy and Cohen.
