Now predicting Biden plans immediate flurry of executive orders to reverse Trump policies

President-elect Joe Biden is planning to quickly sign a series of executive orders after being sworn into office on Jan. 20, immediately forecasting that the country’s politics have shifted and that his presidency will be guided by radically different priorities.

Former President Obama pardoned a man who was a FALN terrorist and, in point of fact, invited another terrorist named Bill Ayers to the White House multiple times. Bill Ayers is the lovely fellow who murdered federal government employees in the 1960s and said his only regret was that he didn't kill more of them. Bill Ayers wasn't simply some "unsavory world leader" that former President Obama was forced to deal with as part of his duties as President. The man was simply a domestic terrorist who used murder in furtherance of his brain dead political ideology, which seems to be par for the course for Democrats. I seriously doubt you have an acceptable explanation for that.

One thing that would be helpful if you want to 'buy American' or at least 'not buy Chinese' would be to mandate by law that the origin of products on platforms like Amazon, are clearly stated on the sales page. That way, it is a matter of consumer choice. You don't have to mandate anything, you let Joe Public decide.

Its more than that for buy American as the loop holes exist for assemblies to be finish here and its counts as made in America. There is also the distribution gig where its shipped here unpackaged and put into a box with american labels then passed off as if its the real deal.

Something started that Biden will need to deal with The Taliban have been encroaching on key cities around Afghanistan for months, threatening to drive the country to its breaking point and push the Biden administration into a no-win situation just as the United States’ longest war is supposed to be coming to an end.

The Taliban’s brazen offensive has put the Biden administration into a dangerous political bind. Under the deal struck by President Donald J. Trump with the Taliban last year, all foreign troops — including the remaining 2,500 American service members who support Afghanistan’s beleaguered army and security forces — are scheduled to withdraw by May 1, leaving the country in an especially precarious state.

We should never make deals with the Taliban as they do not keep their word...lest we forget 9/11/01

Senate passes $1.9 trillion Covid relief bill, including $1,400 stimulus checks, with no Republican support

Before it can be signed by Biden, the legislation will have to be passed again by the House after the Senate made changes to its version, which Democrats approved along party lines last Saturday.

How soon might you receive a $1,400 stimulus check?

After the bill is signed into law, the IRS could begin delivering the checks within days to one week, based on the timeframe for the previous round of checks — potentially as early as the weekend of March 13.

Rather than calling it the china virus and slurring a race Trump should have done the investigation that will now take place a year later The Senate on Friday passed a resolution calling for a probe into the origins of COVID-19 amid renewed attention over a theory that the virus came from a lab in China.

Joe Biden Calls On New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo To Resign Tuesday after an explosive report concluded that Cuomo sexually harassed multiple women.

kbd512 · 2021-08-03 19:58:52

SpaceNut,

The Democrats are now concerned that Governor Cuomo allegedly sexually harassed some women, but during the worst days of the pandemic he was putting COVID patients back into nursing homes.

SpaceNut · 2021-08-04 19:24:40

Trump did the same and then some long before being president.

A recent article Andrew Cuomo’s Covid-19 nursing home fiasco shows the ethical perils of pandemic policymaking Feb. 26, 2021

Of course the actions were more than a year ago when the congress passed bills to protect against law suits that would result in what was done being called a crime of which it was and is. As the intent was to not protect those that got the virus maybe he was told that they are not contagious but we all know that covid is different than any form of flu we have ever had.

I think my post was in politics about the giving of immunity and that it was wrong...

Calliban · 2021-08-13 04:08:33

The US does need a sustained programme to upgrade its public infrastructure, roads and bridges in particular. But the world will be a very different place 30 years from now. There needs to be careful thought given to how freight transportation can be sustained in an era of much more constrained liquid fuel supply. I suspect that rail will be a big part of the answer here. This is an existing system that already carries a large volume of freight. How can it be upgraded to reduce the need for long distance trucking? I doubt that this sort of systematic thinking is on the radar of those drafting the legislation. Which is unfortunate. There are electric truck solutions with range 100-200 miles. But further than this is not really practical. So the US needs a rail system that can take freight to and from regional nodes, service surrounding regions of a few thousand square miles or less. This may mean new railway routes and preparing local industries to adapt to conditions where shipping is to and from a rail depot.

Electric heavy trucks are an existing solution. This one has range up to 250 miles. Unfortunately, recharging times mean that this isn't something that can practically carry freight across country. But they would work carrying containerised freight from a factory to regional rail hub 100 miles away.
https://freightliner.com/trucks/ecascadia/

People are more flexible. I suspect that if reduced cost electric vehicles can be produced, with range up to 100km, then coaches powered by fuel cells can transport people along trunk roads. This allows a very dispersed population like the US to maintain a large amount of personal mobility with relatively small reliance on fossil fuels.

There are non-fossil solutions to transportation problems arising from Peak Oil. Unfortunately, most people assume that these solutions need to work in exactly the same way that existing solutions work. But that simply isn't practical.
Batteries, hydrogen, compressed air, thermal energy storage - all of these things have much lower energy density than diesel or gasoline and they take a lot longer to recharge than it takes to refill a gas tank. That means shorter range for a practically affordable solution and a more node based way of working.

waiting for a history correction This tribe helped the Pilgrims survive for their first Thanksgiving. They still regret it 400 years later. Long marginalized and misrepresented in U.S. history, the Wampanoags are bracing for the 400th anniversary of the first Pilgrim Thanksgiving in 1621

kbd512 · 2021-11-06 13:23:48

SpaceNut,

What does the Wampanoag's tribal history have to do with President Biden or President Trump or President Obama?

I'm guessing the answer is absolutely nothing.

SpaceNut · 2021-11-06 16:05:23

In 2015, about 300 acres was put in federal trust for the Mashpee Wampanoag under President Barack Obama. That essentially gave them a reservation, although it is composed of dozens of parcels that are scattered throughout the Cape Cod area and represents half of 1 percent of their land historically.
But President Donald Trump’s administration tried to take the land out of trust, jeopardizing their ability to develop it.
Mashpee Wampanoag tribal officials said they’re still awaiting final word from the Department of the Interior — now led by Deb Haaland, the first Native American to head the agency — on the status of their land.

That good enough

kbd512 · 2021-11-06 16:38:01

SpaceNut,

Feds Drop Legal Battle Over Tribe's Reservation Status

The Cape Cod-based tribe was granted more than 300 acres of land in trust in 2015 by then-President Barack Obama, a move that carved out the federally protected land needed for the tribe to develop its planned $1 billion First Light casino, hotel and entertainment resort.
The tribe learned in March 2020 that the federal government was moving to reverse the reservation designation. The Trump administration decided it could not take the land into trust because the tribe was not officially recognized as of June 1, 1934. That was the year the federal Indian Reorganization Act, which laid the foundation for modern federal Indian policy, became law.
At the time, the tribe’s chair called it a “sucker punch.”
The Cape Cod-based tribe, which traces its ancestry to the Native Americans that shared a fall harvest meal with the Pilgrims in 1621, gained federal recognition in 2007.
U.S. Representative Bill Keating, D-Mass., whose district represents Cape Cod, applauded the decision to drop the appeal.
“The claim that the Tribe of the First Light, the Tribe of the First Thanksgiving was not an original Native American Tribe has always been disingenuous,” Keating said in a statement. “And the Trump Administration’s sudden attempt to remove their land from trust last March — in the midst of a pandemic — was heartless.”

Let's teach you a little bit of history, as it pertains to the laws in questions. For some strange reason, I constantly have to educate Democrats about the laws that their own political party signs into law.

President Trump's administration decided it was obligated to uphold the existing law, which was signed into law by former President. Franklin D. Rooselvelt, Democrat, in 1934, the year the applicable law was signed into law by the Rooselvelt administration. President Obama, decided he didn't have to follow the law and could start making declarations as if they carried the force of law with them, which they do not. That was one of the major reasons that President Trump was elected. Democrats can't seem to figure out that when they enact a law, the law means what they scribble on their paper, and if they later decide that they don't like it, then the proper recourse is to petition Congress to change the law. Again, this has nothing to do with ANY Presidential administration except for that of former President Franklin D. Rooselvelt, Democrat. Your issue is with President Rooselvelt, not with what President Trump's administration was prohibited by law from doing. If you don't like any law, then the legal remedy is to go change said law. It's improbable that anyone would even care about changing the law to give land to the Wampanoag, but the way you go about doing that is with an amendment to the 1934 law, starting in the House of Representatives, which is controlled by the Democrats, and ending on President Biden's desk, someone who is also a Democrat.

This is exactly how you avoid future lawsuits. You have an existing law that the government is obligated to uphold, the government actually does that under Republican administrations, and if you don't like a law, then you amend the existing law or create a new one. It's an exceptionally simple concept, but clearly beyond the comprehension of many Democrats. Either follow the legal process for changing the law, or quit complaining about Republican administrations upholding the law.
