President-elect Joe Biden will sign more than a dozen executive actions on Wednesday reversing some of President Trump’s signature policy initiatives and setting the tone for the new administration’s focus on COVID-19, the economy, climate change and racial justice.

On Biden’s first day as president, he plans to issue a national mask-wearing “challenge,” stop the construction of the Southern border wall, revoke the so-called “Muslim ban,” and rejoin both the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, among many other things.

And that is only just the beginning of flooding in new democratic voters, getting them on govt assistance (which by the way is taxpayer assistance), and rejoin us to taxpayer waste accords while ending those who are benefiting the American people.


But OMB so here we are.

Watching him bumble through his first appearances is going to be hilarious. He's gonna drool and forget where he is and the media is gonna say he's as healthy as a 25 year old

They want to see a patriot like Dan Crenshaw uphold the dignity of the US Congress

Interesting wording. Challenges can be accepted or not.

I love how he calls it a challenge because he really can’t make us do it.

On his first day, Biden will sign an executive order “embedding equity across federal policymaking and rooting out systemic racism and other barriers to opportunity from federal programs and institutions.”

That order will require federal agencies to “undertake a baseline review of the state of equity” under their purview and to provide more opportunities and engagement with people of color.

That is how you make organizations exponentially worse. Hiring people to meet a quota rather than based on qualifications

“Climate change poses an existential threat not just to our environment, but to our health, national security and economic well-being,” said Gina McCarthy, Biden’s National Climate Advisor. “At this moment of profound crisis, we can build a more resilient economy…that puts us on an irreversible path to achieving net zero emissions economy-wide by 2050.”

It's meaningless word salad but the brunch crowd will eat it up.
