As President Joe Biden assumes the Oval Office, The Federalist will continue its rigorous coverage of the new White House, keeping the administration accountable with substantive fact-checking throughout Biden’s tenure.
When Trump implemented a travel ban on China in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, then-candidate Joe Biden railed against the executive action as “xenophobic” claiming such restrictions do not work.
Less than a year later, Biden has implemented his own travel bans on South Africa, Brazil, Great Britain, and 26 other European countries in the second week of his presidency.
Biden's tweet about Xenophobic & fear mongering was not about the Muslim country travel restrictions. It was about COVID, in March of last year. Biden also stated travel restrictions won't work. https://t.co/v6PNl5ILOb pic.twitter.com/SRj8Wtq2oR

After Biden staffers lied telling CNN there was “nothing for us to rework” in terms of a vaccination distribution plan, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki admitted there was a plan at the podium during a Jan. 25 briefing they just won’t give credit.
Psaki told reporters the plan from the Trump White House was “much worse than we could have imagined.”

The plan inherited by the Biden White House however, has already put the new administration on trajectory to reach its goal of reaching 100 million vaccinated within its first 100 days.
Below is the chart outline for the distribution process under Operation Warp Speed, which produced not one, but two coronavirus vaccines in record time.
President Biden spent the entire campaign last year running on a platform to shut down the novel coronavirus, only to back away from the signature pledge on day three of his White House tenure with a bold admission.
“There’s nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic in the next several months,” Biden said on Jan. 22.

Not only did Biden’s official campaign promise acknowledge that “the trajectory of COVID-19 in America is headed in the wrong direction” and that his administration would be the solution, but Biden also pledged numerous times to “immediately put in place a national strategy that will position our country to finally get ahead of this virus and get back our lives.”
Joe Biden claimed the federal government failed to “act with the urgency” that was necessary to combat the coronavirus pandemic, apparently neglecting to mention the Trump White House’s Operation Warp Speed that produced two viable coronavirus vaccines by the year’s end.
Texas Republican Sen. John Cornyn also pointed out that Congress passed trillions in stimulus, providing funds for pandemic efforts and economic recovery.
Fact: A series of bipartisan COVID-19 relief bills passed last year totaling more than $4 trillion, as recently as last month.
Fact: About 1 million Americans being vaccinated daily

Sources within the Biden administration told CNN they inherited no vaccine distribution plan from the previous White House.
“There is nothing for us to rework. We are going to have to build everything from scratch,” one source reportedly told CNN’s MJ Lee, except there was, as outlined in Trump’s Operation Warp Speed, included below.

The Biden team’s statements were also contradicted by the National Institutes of Health Director Dr. Anthony Fauci the same afternoon.
“We’re certainly not starting from scratch, because there is activity going on in the distribution,” Fauci told reporters.
White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki justified Biden’s decision with his family to forgo face masks at the Lincoln Memorial after signing an executive order requiring them on all federal lands.
“He was celebrating a historic day in our country. … We have bigger things to worry about,” said Psaki, whose dismissal of the face mask as an insignificant issue was contradicted by the White House edict passed hours earlier.

Though Biden has received both shots of the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines stipulate that vaccinated people are to continue wearing face masks, citing a lack of research showing whether those vaccinated can still spread the virus. While Biden likely did not need to wear a face mask, considering he was outside and adequately distanced from others, the absence of a mask flies in the face of Biden’s executive order, in which “celebrating” is not listed as an exception.
Joe Biden defended his administration’s goal to vaccinate 100 million Americans within his first 100 days in office after a reporter questioned whether the target was too modest.
“When I announced it, you all said it wasn’t possible. C’mon. Gimme a break, man,” Biden snapped.

While few articles at major publications have voiced some skepticism, they remained rare, undermining Biden’s claim that “all” media had been overwhelmingly pessimistic of the Biden administration reaching the 100 million mark by the end of April.
Biden launched his first term as commander-in-chief by branding himself as the unifier-in-chief while aggressively pursuing a partisan progressive agenda promoting left-wing ideas of “social justice” after smearing two Republican senators as Nazi collaborators.
“To all those who did not support us, let me say this: Hear me out as we move forward. Take a measure of me and my heart,” Biden pleaded with the American people.
Less than two weeks prior, however, the “unity” president smeared Republican Sens. Josh Hawley of Missouri and Ted Cruz of Texas as Nazis.
Fracking. Said he wouldn’t ban it and the. Now he’s banning
Oil and gas. Said he’d keep those jobs. He’s destroying them in New Mexico and all down the Keystone line.
He’s worse than Obama and we are in week one.
Lies list....
Next time you may be asked to register as a high user of bandwidth as the list will get out of control.
In print it will look like a printed Los Angeles phone book.
“I won” would be the BIGGEST lie.
ba ba ba baby you aint seen nothing yet!
I think that was to excite the voters of Pennsylvania.
After leaving the state Biden figured he doesn't have to give a frack.
Might be easier to keep a list of the promises he hasn’t broken. It’ll be a blank list by the end of the winter no doubt
Joe doesn’t lie...
He just misremembers things, and believes in so many things that are just not true. Other people lie for him, and put the words in his mouth.
It is not that Joe tells the truth or or that he tells a lie, but he cannot tell the difference. His opinions are pretty much the same as the last person he talked to.
War is Peace. Lies are Truth. You will believe or its off to room 101 for you.
The average Biden voter is too stupid to keep track, and will never hear Biden lied.
Time to dust off and update what I used to say about obama...
EVERYTHING obama biden does either:
a) Weakens America/Americans
b) Distances America's allies
c) Strengthens America's enemies
d) Attacks Christianity
e) Serves islam
f) Harms Israel
Or some combination of the above.
While Biden likely did not need to wear a face mask, considering he was outside and adequately distanced from others...
the states bungled the vaccines,
because of this, the .gov wants to run the elections for them going forward..
It’s only natural he would lie, after all he himself is a lie.
Can anyone name just ONE Joementia EO that benefits the average American Citizen?
Can anyone explain why there have been no appeals of the Legality of ANY of Joementia’s EO’s while nearly every one of POTUS Trump’s EO’s were immediately challenged in Court?
How is Joementia able to reverse POTUS Trump’s EO’s when there is precedent that POTUS Trump could not reverse many of Obama’s EO’s, I.E. DACA?
Let’s keep a running list just like the Dems did.
Please, don’t worry about making them any more accurate than the Dems, either.
How about the biggest one of all, the one he based his whole campaign on - that Trump said there were “good people on both sides” at Charlottesville without in fact condemning “neo-nazis and white nationalists, we never support them”......
