President Biden: “U.S. Plans for Inter-Ocean Railroad”

quote:

Speaking Wednesday night at an event hosted by the League of Conservation Voters Action Fund, nominal president Joe Biden laid out his administration’s “plans” for advancing Green New Deal-related projects not just in the United States but in other parts of the world.

Here’s the transcript:

“We have plans to build a railroad from the Pacific all the way across the Indian Ocean. We have plans to build in — in Angola one of the largest solar plants in the world. I can go on, but I’m not. I’m going off-script. I’m going to get in trouble.”

Oh, yeah, that’s definitely off-script all right. But it just serves to remind us that this guy is totally clueless, perpetually out to lunch, and not really in charge of anything.

But he isn’t the only person at the White House who is perpetually out to lunch and living in a fantasy world. At another point in the same speech, Biden said this about Africa’s growing population:

“Soon, Africa will have 1 billion people.”

He read that directly from his ever-present TelePrompter - it was a completely prepared remark. For the record, the population of Africa exceeded 1 billion in 2009, 14 years ago, and the year Biden assumed the Vice Presidency under Barack Obama.

I don’t know how the Biden administration plans to construct a railroad across the Pacific and Indian Oceans, or what the purpose of doing so would even be. Sadly, no one in our ridiculously useless legacy media has any interest in asking, and the White House hasn’t offered a clarification.

But the fact that the nominal president of the United States obviously believes such a thing is even possible tells us all we really need to know about the direction of energy policy in Washington, DC.
