"
Reports began to surface this week of potential cabinet appointments and priority government projects for Democrat Party presidential challenger Joe Biden should he take office in January.
Many of these, both the individuals and the policies, are not new – they are vestiges of the departed Obama administration that Biden was part of as vice president. In foreign policy, particularly, Biden has promised a return to a status quo under his former boss that fueled global instability, wasted American tax dollars, and hurt the American worker.
Below, five policies Biden has promised to resurrect from their political death under President Donald Trump and the setbacks they represent to policies that, for the past four years, have helped make the world a more peaceful place."
1. Returning to the Iran Nuclear Deal
2. Returning to the Paris Climate Agreement
3. Refunding the World Health Organization
4. Reverse Trump’s Policy of Withdrawal from Afghanistan
5. Rejoining the U.N. Human Rights Council
6. Restoring Friendly Trade Ties with China
I can think of nothing "progressive" about the Biden regressive vision...Right down to recycling the swamp creatures that so pissed people off that they elected a Donald Trump in the first place...
This alone embodies the return to the Obama era policy of "leading from behind", whatever that is supposed to mean, that brought a stagnant economy, shuttered downtown's, and "the new normal" of >1% GDP ....
This is how a great nation cedes its standing in the world....But Liberals will probably love it, because they hate this country to start with, and most of them feel like we are an ignoble, bully in the world, so they will be happy to tear it down....Sad.
Yup, Americans are the wallet to fund this, that and the other. He started with his family and now he is getting serious about redistributing everyone's wealth to anti-American causes.
Our representatives in Congress did nothing effective to curb their sell out of the American People while Biden was in office, they did nothing effective while the Deep State tried to destroy the Trump Administration.
Hopefully the McConnell that help Trump reconstituionalize our Judiciary is the same McConnell that tackles re-entering the Iran deal. He should simply set it for Treaty Approval vote, and then let it fail the vote. Same with the Climate treaty.
WHO, put prohibitive language in the next Administration funding bill.
The U.S. Constitution grants Congress complete authority to set tariffs and regulate commerce with foreign nations. It's long past time for Congress to take it back rather than granting it to the President so they can impoverish our working and middle class by pitting them against slave labor for the Lying Outlaw Slavers in Beijing.
We can have friendly ties with China, based on mutual self respect rather than allowing them to rob us blind.
Here is our current trade balance with China over the last 35 years, notice that it goes one way, until Trump started insisting on fair trade midway through 2018:
And a better look at the end of the graph after tariffs starting kicking in Q3/18
Finally, we started moving in the right direction, but, Trump's an anomaly, we can't count on another like him, and rightfully trade is regulated by Congress, not the President, so, we need to hold our Congressional Representatives accountable, they need to write these rules into law.
For example, gradually increasing across the board tariffs, steadily and incrementally nudging our trade back into balance.
