Yesterday, speaking from the Oval Office through two masks, Joe Biden declared that his ruling exclusively through executive orders – which he previously claimed would be a comparable to ruling as a dictator – is only to fix “bad policy” leftover from the Trump administration. According to Biden, this means it was “bad policy” for thousands of Keystone Pipeline workers to have jobs. “There’s a lot of talk, with good reason, about the number of executive orders that I have signed,” said Biden. “I’m not making new law, I’m eliminating bad policy.”
It is unclear why Biden believes pipeline workers being employed was bad policy, but one of Biden’s first executive orders was to eliminate the pipeline’s construction, immediately terminating an estimated 50,000 American jobs both directly and indirectly related to the construction.
The job-killing executive order also caused an international incident, as it destroyed thousands of jobs in Canada as well, and led the Permier of Alberta to threaten sanctions against the United States.

A brief review of the seemingly never ending list of executive orders signed by Biden also indicates he was blatantly lying.
To date, Biden has signed a whopping 45 executive orders.
Of these 45, per CNN, only 16 were reversing previous executive orders from President Donald Trump or other presidents.
In other words, while Biden claimed he was only ending bad policy and not writing new laws with his maddening number of executive orders, in reality only 35% of his executive orders had anything to do with existing policy.
Among his executive orders that essentially represent the President writing office with a phone and a pen, one executive order “Elevates climate change as an essential element of US foreign policy and national security and kicks off development of a new emissions reduction target.”
Another allows biological men to play women’s sports.
A third “Directs FEMA to create federally-supported community vaccination centers.”
A fourth represents a national mask mandate, requiring “mask wearing in airports and on certain modes of transportation, including many trains, airplanes, maritime vessels and intercity buses. International travelers must provide proof of a negative Covid-19 test prior to coming to the US.”
Biden may not realize he lied to the American people, however, as he famously was heard on video saying “I don’t know what I’m signing” when an executive order was placed in front of him. Biden signed it anyway.
Can’t he just tell the truth? “Well, it sucks for those guys - but I owed Warren Buffett a huge favor.”
Just looked it up....President Trump signed 204 EO's in his 4 years. That's an average of 51/year. President Dipwad has done 45 in his first two weeks ! !
But the democraps keep telling us Trump was a dictator.......I have a headache now from facepalming so hard....
So much talk about 1/6 “riot”. If this keeps up with Biden and the DNC,1/6 will be nothing compared to what may happen in the future. What is the Republic’s breaking point? Government takes a worker’s job most of whom have families. Government keeps making Americans more desperate and depressed with a society of tyranny. There will be a reaction to government’s actions. 25k NG will not stop it. The government would have to run and hide like the cowards that they are.
“Salute the Marines”
The stupid is strong in this one!
Wished Biden had been sent to a Covid filled nursing home
The terrible tragedy: Democrats already HAD a chance with the shovel ready green new deal jobs package 12 years ago ... and it all went to foreign companies and corruption. Solyndra wasn’t the only billion dollar blow up.
Two faced people always need two masks...
To date, Biden has signed a whopping 45 executive orders.

I can barely even go on the Internet anymore. It is astonishing.
We are watching the Left gaslight an entire country, with no shame, and the full on support of the “opposing party” (they aren’t anymore) media, entertainment, and education.
And yet:
Rassmusen daily polling, Feb. 3, 2021:
Biden approval: 51%
Disapprove: 47%
Strongly approve: 35%
Strongly disapprove: 38%
BS
For some reason I’m thinking of the song Master of the House from Les Mis...
Democrats. Destroy the economy and peoples lives.
Then offer govt programs to make them dependent on those govt programs.
They utterly destroyed black Americans with these policies during the 60’s and 70’s.
Heroin dealers have better morals.
It is going way north of $4
No one person should have this kind of power let alone a demented one.
At least he is not requiring us to wear our underwear on the outside...
I kind of hope to see that the next group that descends on Washington DC are his core voters who want their $2,000 checks and also want their jobs back.
Not the Bee. What a disgusting pile he is.
