President Joe Biden's Racist First Year
Townhall.com ^ | January 12, 2022 | Betsy McCaughey

Last January, newly elected resident Joe Biden pledged to fight racism and unify the nation. Instead, during his first year he's imposed a harsh agenda of racism in everything from distributing pandemic-relief aid to allocating scarce medicines for COVID patients. Racial favoritism is affecting every way Americans are treated by this administration.

New guidance from Biden's Food and Drug Administration instructs states to reserve monoclonal antibody drugs for patients with medical risk factors such as obesity and kidney disease. But here's the catch: The FDA is also urging race and ethnicity to be considered risk factors, apart from medical condition. So a Black patient with no health problems automatically will be put ahead of a white patient in the same situation.

Biden's Treasury Department is rolling out a $10 billion program to aid small-business owners with loans and grants. Businesses owned by minorities, women, non-English speakers and ex-cons go to the front of line.

Biden administration regulators use weasel words to obscure the truth about who will benefit from this State Small Business Credit Initiative. Regulators say "disadvantaged" groups, but that's defined by race and ethnicity, not actual hardship.

Eligibility also includes anyone who has had "long-term residence in an environment isolated from the mainstream of American society." Translation: ex-cons. White male business owners who obey the law and have never been incarcerated are out of luck.

It's more of the same. Biden's American Rescue Act, passed in March, is riddled with discrimination. That law divvied up taxpayer dollars to benefit minorities and shortchange white people in the name of equity. Minority farmers were offered no-strings loan forgiveness by Biden's Agriculture Department, but white farmers were ineligible.

Biden's Restaurant Revitalization Fund pushed minority and female restaurant owners to the front of the line for whopping giveaways -- up to $10 million per business owner. Sorry, white men.

Federal judges have suspended these programs until white challengers get their day in court. But Biden persists, pandering to his political supporters. Equal rights be damned.

The infrastructure bill passed in November is chock-full of anti-white racism. It includes grants to install solar and wind technologies in depressed areas. But when contractors bid, minority-owned businesses will get selected first.

The bill also allocates money to improve urban traffic patterns. Contractors and subcontractors get priority only if they're owned by minorities or women. White male business owners can take a hike.

So can Asians, in Biden's view. On Dec. 13, Biden's Justice Department urged the Supreme Court not to hear a challenge to Harvard University's admissions policies, which challengers say deny admissions to Asians who have grades and test scores far higher than Black and white applicants.

The Trump Justice Department was committed to challenging these racial preferences, and the American public agrees. Nearly three-quarters of Americans oppose considering race and ethnicity in admissions decisions, and that includes 65% of Hispanics and 62% of Blacks, according to Pew Research. In November, California, the most left-wing and racially diverse state in the country, voted against reinstating affirmative action in state hiring and admissions to public universities.

Biden's Education Department is dangling federal grants to encourage state education bureaucrats to adopt critical race theory and the factually challenged New York Times "1619 Project."

The indoctrination and racism continue in the workplace. Is this what Americans want? Absolutely not. Three-quarters of Americans oppose using race to decide who's hired and promoted, Pew found.

Biden is ignoring that. He's cynically giving his political backers what they want and, in the process, ripping deep wounds into the nation.

When Black and Hispanic people are ushered to the front of the line for medical treatments, get first dibs on pandemic relief funds or get hired faster or admitted to college more easily, other people suffer. Lives and livelihoods are affected.

Americans want to be treated as individuals and to treat others that way.

What a lying fraud this piece of garbage is. I saw his speech yesterday in Georgia lying his freakin’ butt off about “voting rights”.

Anyone see this with all black people sitting behind him as if he’s the savior of the entire African American community while he made Republicans out to be the KKK. This guy is utter scum of the earth and HE is the racist one, HE is the segregationist! Are black people falling for his crap?? Here it is, if you can take watching it for 3 seconds without vomiting.....

Read this, this is part of what he said yesterday:

“That’s why we’re here today to stand against the forces in America that value power over principle, forces that attempted a coup - a coup against the legally expressed will of the American people - by sowing doubt, inventing charges of fraud, and seeking to steal the 2020 election from the people.”

REPUBLICANS attempted a coup? REPUBLICANS?? For a ONE DAY PROTEST compared three freakin’ years of a fake investigation into Russia collusion? Compared to 5 years of terror attacks in every major city by Antifa?

Republicans allowed Joe to steal the 2020 election. What is the 1st priority to accomplish to correct the disaster we are now in? Purge the Republican party. Otherwise they will continue to stand in the way and allow more destruction. MAGA or death.

Obummer calls the shots.....and cable talk fanatic, Susan Rice, now reduced to being an errand girl, makes sure Joe obeys.

FOR INSTANCE In 2005, Barack Obama argued in defense of the filibuster on the Senate floor and now refers to the tactic as a “Jim Crow relic” ......... a comment that resident Joe Biden echoed on Thursday.

It’s creepy how this guy Obummer thinks he gets two and three bites of the political apple. He had his turn......he should STHU. “Recount your stolen holdings, Bummer, and hope you’re not invested w/ a Madoff.”

Dickens immortalized this “Artful Dodger”....Joe Bidung... his cunning personality and practiced
conniving, escaping responsibility for illegalities by disguising himself as “a man of the people.”
