BUT HE SPEAKS SO SOFTLY AND
DOESN’T TWEET BAD THINGS
By E. P. Unum
The date was
November 7, 1983 some 37 years ago, remember? On that date, the May 19
Communist Organization detonated a bomb in the Senate Chamber in an attempt to
kill Republicans. Susan Rosenberg was arrested for this and was imprisoned
until President Clinton pardoned her at the end of his term. Ms. Rosenberg
now serves as an administrator and fundraiser for Black Lives Matter.
Let me say this again for emphasis: she and others planted
a bomb in the Senate Chamber in an attempt to kill Republican Senators…and
detonated it. An act of insurrection? I do not recall any democrats
denouncing this heinous act as an insurrection.
Did you hear
anything about this incident from the mainstream media when they condemned the
riot that occurred on January 6, 2021? The media continues to call this
riot an insurrection. It was not an insurrection; it was a
riot by ignorant, dumb people, plain and simple. It was also planned and
executed well in advance of President Trump’s speech and he had absolutely
nothing to do with the mob that stormed the capitol. In fact, he urged
them to march peacefully to the Capitol to express their
views. But you do not hear that from democrats whose hatred for President Trump
defies logic.
And so, Democrats
are now leading the charge to impeach President Trump a second time saying that
he was the man who instigated this riot; he was the trigger, the force behind
it. They offer no evidence to support this ridiculous and absurd charge; they
just spew their venom and hate. Consequently, the American people will be
treated to a costly trial in the Senate to impeach a President who is no longer
President. Where is the logic for this? With all of the issues faced by
our country, how does this theatrical event help our nation?
Why was there no
outcry when a crazed shooter, a devotee of Bernie Sanders, after asking if the
players on a baseball field were all Republicans, opened fire on
Republican senators and congressmen and almost killed Senator Scalise of
Louisiana?
I guess detonating
a bomb in the Senate Chamber or opening fire on Republican House and Senate
members doesn’t qualify for mention….or perhaps that’s because no one pays
attention to history anymore!
Where exactly is
our calm, soft-spoken President Biden on all of this? What is his
perspective? He lived through all of these events. Has he nothing to
offer? I guess we should all be happy that he speaks so softly, almost
grandfatherly and he doesn’t tweet mean things. Where is his steadfast
presence now?
Why he is busy
signing Executive Orders of course. Practicing governing by fiat…the new
Biden Doctrine. Let’s talk about these decrees for a minute and highlight
some of the 52 actions he has taken since he took office on January 20,
2021. What exactly did he accomplish? The following are only a few of
his “Presidential Actions”:
1. In
three executive orders, President Biden wiped away energy independence for
America that took us decades to accomplish. President Trump enacted laws
that stimulated oil and gas exploration, facilitated fracking, and turned the
United States for the first time in its 245 year history into an oil-exporting
nation, reversing our dependence on foreign oil from the Middle East and
Venezuela. The result was lower prices for travel, significant reductions
in the cost of gasoline for consumers at the pump, and heating oil to warm
their homes. Have you checked out the gasoline prices at the pump
recently?. They have increased here in the East by $.40 per gallon and are
increasing at the rate of $.05 per week. They will soon top $3.00 per
gallon and will reach $4.00 per gallon by the summer. Have you checked out
food prices at the market? They are rising rapidly and will continue to do
so as we rely more on rail and truck delivery of oil from Canada and ships from
the Middle East. Not to mention the jobs lost in the fracking, coal, and
gas exploration industries or those from his unilateral decision to cancel the
Keystone XL Pipeline. That pipeline delivers oil to the US from
Alberta, Canada at roughly $10 per barrel. Delivering oil by Truck and
Rail will cost $30-$36 per barrel and by barge roughly $40 per barrel. My
question is….why? This is basic economics 101. And what the hell does
any of this have to do with combating Covid, the major problem Biden said he
would address?
2. President
Biden unilaterally enacted law that created a new glass ceiling for girls to
hurdle when he pronounced that “transgender boys” can compete against
girls in sports. Boys are biologically stronger and faster than girls so
how is this fair for girls and….what the hell was the necessity for taking this
action at this time in our history? But, true to form, President Biden did
this calmly without angry tweets and without speaking loudly. Such a refreshing
approach from a President who tells us he is a President for “all
Americans.”
3. Biden
issued a new federal mask mandate requiring all federal employees and the U.S.
military to wear masks at all times on federal property. But of course,
Biden and many of his cabinet and officers have violated this new order
already, specifically the newly appointed Climate Czar John “Lurch” Kerry
(with apologies to the Adams Family Character).
4. In
the first few days in office, Biden terminated construction of the U.S.
Southern Wall, which has demonstrated by any yardstick of measurement to
control illegal immigration. But his action was an open invitation for
illegals from Honduras, Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Mexico to try to come into the
U.S and as I write this piece, vast caravans of immigrants are already on their
way here, many infected with Covid and God knows what else. So how does
this help America? We already have 10 million people unemployed as a
result of the virus. What will happen when we open our doors to hundreds
of thousands more who come here illegally? Biden has also hinted that
these immigrants will receive the Covid Vaccines, depleting the supplies available
to U. S. Citizens. Again, how does this help our nation? How does it
stimulate “unity”? Who bears the cost of housing, feeding, and
caring for these people attempting to come here illegally. We the
people….you and I…bear this cost. So how is that “putting America
first”?
5. In announcing his
executive decrees, Biden has said very calmly and grandfatherly, that he is “not
making new laws, he is eliminating bad policies”, a jab at President Trump,
as if all of President Trump’s policies were bad! If they were bad, how
did we have the greatest economic performance in history before the Covid
Crisis hit? Keep in mind, when Biden reverses all of the Trump actions,
such as the Trump tax cuts, every American will see significantly higher taxes
despite Biden’s foolish commitments that no one will see higher taxes who makes
less than $400,000 per year. That is an empty promise. Moreover, how
will we pay for the trillions of dollars in the Green New Deal programs already
underway without new taxes? But, in fairness, we must remember that Biden
has taken these steps calmly and without condescending tweets or loud remarks.
We the people should be grateful for this; it’s a real blessing
6. Quietly,
and with little discussion, one of Biden’s actions reversed a Trump executive
order to lower the cost of insulin for diabetics and epinephrine for people
with heart conditions. But, hey, this is only a small segment of the U.S.
population and besides, it was originally enacted by Trump so it must be
bad. Note again, Biden took these actions calmly and didn’t issue a
single harshly worded tweet.
7. One
major action by Biden rescinds a Trump Order banning Chinese Communist
involvement in the U.S. Power Grid. On its face, one would think that is
common sense, after all, China is our competitor, so why should we give them
access to our power grid. But, oh no, in today’s pursuit of the utopian
world, his action by Trump should be disavowed. After all, restricting
Chinese investment in this segment would be restricting dollars coming into our
country, and surely you realize that that would be un-American and not
conducive to American economic growth and GDP. I’d like to speak to the
advisors who convinced Biden that he ought to reverse Trump’s decision here and
understand how inviting an avowed enemy of the U.S. to be a part of our
nation’s power grid is beneficial to the United States. Forgive me, but
this sounds an awful lot like when Hillary Clinton agreed to the sale of 20% of
our uranium resources to a Russian company while she was Secretary of State.
8. One
of Biden’s puzzling actions was to cancel the $30 billion farm subsidy program
that helps our farmers feed our nation and immediately transferred that money
to fight Climate Change. How does that help America? What do you
think will happen to food costs in the near future? You know, I often hear
people like AOC and John Kerry and President Biden and Kamala Harris speak
about Climate Change as if this is solid universally-agreed upon science embraced
by all. It is not. Recall Bernie Sanders and AOC announce two years
ago that we had only twelve years left before the planet becomes extinct
because of climate change…you know…the “existential threat of our time”. There
are many more accomplished scientists who have written and spoken that these
predictions are just hogwash. Shouldn’t we demand open and candid debates
on this before injecting fear into our lives when there is no basis for
fear? Democrats are good at that.
9. The
CDC, Academy of Pediatrics, and other physicians around the nation have stated
that it is both safe and time to get our children back in schools.
Wouldn’t this be “following the science” so often professed by President
Biden? Why are our schools not open? Well, it is because the teachers'
union does not agree that teachers should be going back to work. And the
teachers' union is a significant contributor to Joe Biden. Has Biden even
mentioned that he is in favor of schools opening? Why not? Funny that
there are no executive actions here. Remember when the Air Traffic
Controllers went on strike? Remember what President Reagan
did? He fired them all. They went back to work quickly. So
will teachers. But it takes a leader with guts to do this and frankly, we
have a crisis in leadership in our government. But someone needs to step
up and call into question what closed schools are doing to our children.
Children are the only real treasure in life and we are sacrificing their future
and their education on the altar of greed and laziness. It is un-America
and by God is it downright wrong and pathetic.
10. President
Biden reminds us often that he is a devout practicing Roman Catholic. I,
too, am a practicing Catholic and so what are we to assume when a man who
professes to be a devout Roman Catholic openly supports abortion? In one of his
most telling actions, Mr. Biden made the unforced unilateral decision to
reverse the Trump-endorsed Mexico City Policy Ban on prohibiting the use of
taxpayer funding of foreign abortion providers. His voluntary action on
this matter is unconscionable in light of his Catholic Faith and will now
subsidize the killing of unborn children beyond our borders. His action is
a blatant betrayal of the teachings of the Church but it is sadly part of Mr. Biden’s
DNA. He has done this many times in the past, most notably when he
announced to the media the identity of the military group, Seal Team 6, that
killed Osama bin Laden, thereby putting a target on their backs. Not long
after, a Chinook Helicopter with 38 troops on board in Afghanistan, many of
them Seal Team members was shot down with an RPG killing all on board. The
media never mentioned Mr. Biden’s role in this.
Today, our nation’s
National Debt stands at or around $30 Trillion Dollars. Our GDP stands at
$23 Trillion so our debt to income ratio is 1:30 to 1 or stated another way,
our total debt is 6.7 times the amount of income our government collects in taxes
from all sources…corporations and individuals. To be sure, a good portion
of this increase in debt is due entirely to Covid but unless we get some fiscal
restraint into our Congress and President and focus on GDP growth to achieve
greater productivity, there is a real possibility that one day, sooner than
later, we will not be able to service our debt and that could spell disaster
for the America we know and love. Yes, I realize that interest rates are
near zero, but that cannot go on forever. Our government needs to start
living within its means just like we the people have to do every day. The
problem is that people in government think they are above the people. They
have lost sight of the fact that they work for us.
Beyond the economic
consequences for our nation, we are also faced with military and terrorist
threats from China, Iran, and Russia. Have you followed Chinese actions in
the South China Sea or its threats to Hong Kong and Taiwan? What will be
the impacts if these actions become more and more aggressive as China has said
they will. Russian bombers have “strayed” into Air Space
over the Aleutians and Alaska. Did you hear of things like this happening
while Trump was President? Iran has threatened the U.S. on a number of
occasions and while alone, Iran represents not a great threat to the U.S.;
allied with China and Russia they could be a problem, especially if they
develop a nuclear capability. And they are closer to that than we think,
plus China has made economic investments in Iran and have diplomatic ties to
that rogue nation.
These are dangerous
times and as Biden and his Administration moves closer and closer to the “transfer
of wealth” which all of the plans and programs he and his
democratic/socialist cohorts endorse, life will become more and more difficult
for everyday Americans like you and me.
On the other hand,
be mindful of the fact that Joe Biden never managed a business in his entire
life. His reputation is marred by underhanded dealings, lies and plagiarism,
and his so-called record of accomplishment is rather invisible. But, do
always keep in the forefront of your minds that Joe Biden has undertaken all of
these actions and more with calmness and soothing words…..and he never once
tweeted bad things or called people names like that mean-spirited Orange Man
Trump.
Is this what you
voted for? ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Watch Pennsylvania: John Fetterman leaps into Pennsylvania's Senate race BRADDOCK, Pennsylvania BySalena Zito
— Sixteen years after winning the mayor’s office of this steel town located on the banks of the Monongahela River by one provisional ballot, John Fetterman has announced his run for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Lehigh Republican Sen. Pat Toomey. It marks the second time the current Pennsylvania lieutenant governor has jumped into a Democratic primary for this seat. In 2016, both he and former Rep. Joe Sestak lost the party nomination to former state Energy Secretary Katie McGinty, who went on to lose to Toomey in the general election. In 2018, Fetterman made history when he challenged and defeated Lt. Gov. Mike Stack III, a Philadelphia Democrat, in a primary, making Stack the first lieutenant governor in modern Pennsylvania history to lose reelection in a primary. Fetterman has served as Gov. Tom Wolf’s second ever since. Click here for the full story.
