The Biden junta seized power through a coup via [[Democrat election fraud|extensive voter fraud]] on November 4, 2020 and formally installed itself on January 20, 2021. The Biden/Harris regime foreign policy was first outlined by its [[State Department]] chief spokesperson: the "largest threat to U.S. [[national security]] are U.S. [[cop]]s."<ref>https://freebeacon.com/biden-administration/state-dept-spox-largest-threat-to-u-s-national-security-are-u-s-cops/</ref> Foreign minister Antony Blinken ordered all U.S. Diplomatic and Consular posts to display support for Black Lives Matter on the one-year anniversary of [[George Floyd]]’s death and beyond.<ref>https://humanevents.com/2021/05/24/breaking-news-leaked-state-department-memo-indicates-official-support-for-blm-agenda/</ref> Despite the documented actions of BLM protestors during the riots of 2020, and the organization’s declining popularity with American voters, the junta nonetheless endorsed and promoted an organization with admitted Marxist roots as one having ties to U.S. official foreign offices.<ref>https://twitchy.com/brettt-3136/2021/05/25/heres-the-us-embassy-in-madrid-proudly-flying-the-black-lives-matter-banner/</ref> The State Department memo reads in part: in part,
{{quotebox-float|“The Department supports the use of the term ‘Black Lives Matter’ in messaging content, speeches, and other diplomatic engagements with foreign audiences to advance racial equity and access to justice on May 25 [2021] and beyond....This cable constitutes a blanket written authorization for calendar year 2021 from the Under Secretary for Management (M) to display the BLM flag on the external-facing flagpole to any Chiefs of Mission who determine such a display is appropriate in light of local conditions.}}
The junta's actions were in line with the Chinese Communist Party document, ''Report on Human Rights Violations in the United States in 2020''—whose Forward section begins with the words: “I can't breathe!”-- George Floyd.<ref>https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202103/1219304.shtml</ref> Blinken declared that Biden would make no effort to contain the Chinese Communist's bid for global domination, replacing the United States as the planet's premier global [[Superpower]] .<ref>https://thenationalpulse.com/breaking/biden-wont-contain-china-reveals-blinken/</ref>

{{quotebox-float|"In my expert opinion, the DVS [ [[Dominion Voting Systems]] ] Democracy Suite, Scytl/SOE Software/eClarity and Smartmatic have not produced auditable results in the 2020 election. It is evident that ballots were not properly validated, system records were not kept, and the system experience considerable instability even several days prior to November 4, 2020 that require DVS to implement software changes at the last minute. In addition, the disparity in data distribution after 4:30 AM on November 4, 2020 indicates significant systemic anomalies that were widespread among all battleground states. The evidence is both extensive and persuasive and indicates large-scale [[fraud]] by remote operators.
"I conclude that a combination of lost cryptographic key contained on stolen USB memory cards, serious exploitable system and [[software]] vulnerabilities and operating system backdoor in DVS, Scytl, SOE Software/eClarity and Smartmatic created the perfect environment to commit widespread fraud in all states where these systems are installed. My analysis of the 2020 Election from ''NY Times'' data shows statistical anomalies across the battleground state votes. These failures are widespread and systemic - and sufficient to invalidate the [[vote]] counts.
"I conclude with high confidence that the election 2020 data were altered in all [[swing states|battleground states]] resulting in a hundreds of thousands of votes that were cast for [[President Trump]] to be transferred to [[Vice President Biden]]. These alterations were the result of systemic and widespread exploitable vulnerabilities in DVS, Scytl/SOE Software and Smartmatic systems that enabled operators to achieve
the desired results. In my view, the evidence is overwhelming and incontrovertible."<ref>https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.mied.350905/gov.uscourts.mied.350905.1.19.pdf</ref>}}
A YouGov poll conducted after the [[junta]]'s first 100 days showed a staggering 36 percent of voters have a “very unfavorable” opinion of [[Kamala Harris]]. The same poll showed Harris 25 points underwater with Independents and 10 points negative among voters overall.<ref>https://docs.cdn.yougov.com/lftymxzxfl/econTabReport.pdf</ref> Political analyst Charlie Cooke observed:
{{quotebox-float|"Still, that Harris is unpopular should come as no great surprise, given that she somehow manages to combine into a single package a transparent insincerity, an unvarnished authoritarianism, and a tendency toward precisely the sort of self-satisfied progressivism that helped the Republicans to limit their losses at the last general election. If her apologists wish to, they can pretend that the reaction Harris yields is “gendered” or “systemic” or “inequitable” or whatever other bastardized academic term is fashionable this week, and they should feel free to knock themselves out doing so. Deep down, though, they must know that America isn’t the problem here. The problem is that Harris is a phony.<ref>https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/05/the-democrats-have-a-kamala-harris-problem/</ref>}}
The White House Council of Economic Advisers deleted its entire internship page after the ''[[Daily Caller]]'' News Foundation reported that the office offered exclusively unpaid positions despite calling for a higher federal [[minimum wage]].<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2021/05/21/white-house-council-of-economic-advisors-joe-biden/</ref> Biden had said on January 22, 2021, “No one in America should work 40 hours a week making below the poverty line. Fifteen dollars gets people above the poverty line. We have so many millions of people working 40 hours a week — working — and some with two jobs, and they’re still below the poverty line.”

There are about 1,200 Senate-confirmed posts, and even more appointed positions that don’t require the Senate’s signoff. By his 65th day and first press conference, Biden submitted 68 names to the Senate, according to the Partnership for Public Service. That’s more than George W. Bush or Donald Trump had at this point in their terms but fewer than the 109 names submitted by Barack Obama. 29 of the 68 had been confirmed. Biden had appointed an unprecedented number — more than 1,200 — to non-Senate-confirmed jobs.
===Propaganda apparatus===
[[File:Psaki communist.PNG|right|250px|thumb|Junta chief spokesperson Jen Psaki (right) with [[Hammer and Sickle]]. [[Russian]] Foreign Minister [[Sergey Lavrov]] (left). According to Biden aide [[Eric Ciaramella]], Lavrov instructed President Trump to fire [[James Comey]].<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/alleged-whistleblower-eric-ciaramella-was-cited-in-key-passage-of-mueller-report</ref>]]
Biden junta chief propagandist Jen Psaki outlined the regime's [[disinformation]] strategy. Psaki said [[Twitter]] is not a platform to disseminate news, rather it is a vehicle for talking to reporters. According to ''[[Politico]]'',<ref>https://www.politico.com/newsletters/west-wing-playbook/2021/05/06/whitehouses-favorite-reporters-492757</ref> there are 90 staffers who have new administration-branded Twitter accounts, most with “46” included in the handle. The reporters who are followed by staffers draw heavily from [[CNN]], [[Bloomberg News]] and the [[Associated Press]]. Bloomberg News’ Jennifer Epstein is followed by more Biden administration staffers (39) than any other reporter. Next after Epstein are CNN’s Kaitlan Collins (37), PBS’ [[Yamiche Alcindor]] (36), AP’s Zeke Miller (34), and Bloomberg’s Jennifer Jacobs (33). The news outlets with the most White House staffers following them are: @nytimes, @cnn, @washingtonpost, @cnnpolitics and @cnnbrk.
White House staffers don’t follow many [[conservative]] outlets or reporters who work for them. Not even the ''[[Wall Street Journal]]'' makes the list of the top 15 news outlets they follow. Only 10 staffers follow [[Fox News]]’ Peter Doocy and 2 follow Fox News colleague Kristen Fisher.
Symone Sanders, who was demoted by Biden to be Kamala Harris' chief spokesperson because she is [[Black]], is the most popular. Outside of Biden, Harris, and their spouses, Symone Sanders has more internal followers than anyone except Psaki and [[Ron Klain]]. With 62 of the 94 accounts following her, she ranks higher than communications director Kate Bedingfield, deputy chief of staff Jen O’Malley Dillon, every Cabinet member, and even @WHCOVIDResponse.
[[Nancy Pelosi]] (29 followers) is the most followed lawmaker among staffers, followed by [[Chuck Schumer|Cuck Schumer]] (23 followers). The next three all hail from the party’s [[progressive]] wing: Rep. [[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]] (D-N.Y.) and Sens. [[Elizabeth Warren]] (D-Mass.) and Bernie Sanders (DSA-Vt.).
Thirty-three staffers follow Barack Obama. Other [[Obama administration]] alumni who haven’t returned to government are popular, too: former communications director and Clinton propagandist [[Jen Palmieri]] (17), [[Michelle Obama]] (15 followers), former deputy press secretary Eric Schultz (14 followers), [[David Axelrod]] (10 followers) and all four “Pod Save America” bros.
Naomi Biden, the most prominent of the first grandchildren (at least on Twitter), is followed by 10 White House brown nosers, narrowly edging out Kamala Harris' [[nepotism|nepotic]] [[Fashion industry values|fashion industry]] niece [[Meena Harris]] with eight. Meena, however, got the crucial @WHCOS follow from chief-of-staff Ron Klain while Naomi did not.
On March 16, 2021, video was released by ''[[The Hill]]'' showing Biden walking to Marine One but taking a moment to talk to members of the press.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://archive.ph/69TmC|title="Tweet by The Hill."|date=March 16, 2021}}</ref> However, shortly after, it can be seen that President Biden's hand phases through the microphones able to be seen.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://youtu.be/nvgrp82qktU?t=11|title="Biden Fakes Interview, Green Screen Fails."|date=March 17, 2021}}</ref> Different angles show that President Biden was nowhere near these microphones, meaning there is no way this could be a matter of perspective.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://youtu.be/iffU54oIP9o?t=27|title="JOE BIDEN GREEN SCREEN EXPOSED?"|date=March 17, 2021}}</ref> No one in the mainstream media or White House has commented on this, and most likely they never will in order to save face for blatantly using green screen technology for some reason.

The junta took power under the watchful eye of [[National Guard]]smen while the American people were excluded. The next day in the dead of winter, Democrats kicked the Guardsmen out of the [[U.S. Capitol]] building and the soldiers were ordered to sleep in an unheated parking garage,<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/01/21/national-guard-forced-to-evacuate-capitol-grounds-after-alleged-mask-complaint-by-democrat-congressman/</ref> without [[internet]] reception, with just one electrical outlet, and one bathroom having only two stalls for 5,000 troops.<ref>https://www.politico.com/news/2021/01/21/national-guard-troops-vacate-capitol-461220</ref> Under the [[Geneva Convention]], prisoners-of-war are mandated to be taken care of better than how the Biden regime treated U.S. military units as the junta assumed power their first night.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/01/22/nolte-geneva-conventions-forbid-forcing-soldiers-to-sleep-in-parking-garage/</ref> Meanwhile the junta spent $86 million to house illegal immigrants in hotels.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2021/03/22/jen-psaki-national-guard-parking-garage-illegal-immigrants-hotel-rooms/</ref> Over the protestations of majority Black D.C. citizens, the occupation forces remained in place for months.

On its first day, the Biden junta killed 70,000 high-wage [[middle class]] and union jobs by canceling the [[Keystone Pipeline]],<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2021/01/22/pollak-biden-kills-up-to-70000-jobs-on-first-day-in-office-job/</ref> making America energy dependent on [[Vladimir Putin]], [[Saudi Arabia]], and the [[Venezuela]]n Marxist regime while making America's enemies richer.<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/putins-puppet-joe-bidens-eo-blocking-keystone-pipeline-forces-us-imports-russia-venezuelan-marxist-regime-video/</ref>
Biden also embraces many far-Left thoughts like the abortion issue, immigration policies and his refusal to denounce terrorist [[Antifa]] and [[Black Lives Matter]] acts, which makes it impossible for him to unite the division. Very troublesome for Americans of faith was, his May, 2021 decision to omit God from the ''National Day of Prayer''. A first.<ref>Joe Biden Leaves God Out of the National Day of Prayer. National Review, May 10, 2021. https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/05/joe-biden-leaves-god-out-of-the-national-day-of-prayer/amp/</ref>
Among its other first acts was to politicize the nation's military, ordering a stand down and witch hunt to drive conservatives out of officer and enlisted ranks,<ref>https://www.revolver.news/2020/10/biden-loving-general-is-deploying-military-grade-information-warfare-against-trump-supporters/</ref> and renewing the Obama era weaponization of the intelligence apparatus against American citizens.
Likewise, the day after the seizure of power, ''[[The Washington Post]]'' shut down its alleged "fact checking" operation.<ref>https://conservapedia.com/Fake_news#cite_note-2</ref>
By Memorial Day Weekend 2021, Biden continued stoking racial hatred between Americans, traveling to [[Tulsa, Oklahoma]] to commemorate a race riot that took the lives of 26 Blacks and 10 whites in 1921. One speaker at the ceremonies said,
{{quotebox-float|“Black people will kill everything white in sight,” because of “all what you’ve done to us, all of what you’re done in the 6,000 year span and killing 600 million of us and 408 years in particular. They are a race that’s trying to hold on to power, and a race has beginning and an ending and your ending time has been made up since 1914, no-good peckerwood.

He spoke about a [[united front]], and it was time to give these crackers hell.”<ref>https://rumble.com/vhv5qd-kill-everything-white-in-sight-national-black-power-convention.html</ref>}}
Another revolutionary progressive told the crowd,
{{quotebox-float|"We’re pushing death to white supremacy, death to [[capitalism]], death to [[imperialism]], and death to fascism.

All this coming on the heels of widespread attacks on [[Jews]] by Leftists in the United States incited by prominent Democrats<ref>https://twitter.com/YosephHaddad/status/1398857525567623170</ref> and not condemned by the junta.<ref>https://rumble.com/vhnbrp-mark-levin-explodes-on-joe-biden-and-anti-semitic-leftists.html</ref>
===Attack on civil liberties===
:{{See also|Obamunism}}
Glenn Greenwald observed:
{{quotebox-float|"Involvement of the [[intelligence community]] in the domestic activities of U.S. citizens is one of the most dangerous breaches of civil liberties and democratic order the U.S. Government can perpetrate. It was after [[World War II]] when the [[CIA]], the [[NSA]] and other security state agencies that wield immense and unlimited powers in the dark were created in the name of fighting the [[Cold War]]. Legal and institutional prohibitions on wielding that massive machinery against the American public were central to the always-dubious claim that this security behemoth that operates completely in the dark was compatible with [[democracy]]. As the [[ACLU]] noted, “in its 1947 charter, the CIA was prohibited from spying against Americans, in part because [[President Truman]] was afraid that the agency would engage in political abuse.”<ref>https://greenwald.substack.com/p/the-us-intelligence-community-flouting</ref>}}
CNET reported the following back in 2008:
{{Quotebox-float|“Months before the [[Oklahoma City bombing]] took place, Biden introduced another bill called the Omnibus Counterterrorism Act of 1995. It previewed the 2001 Patriot Act by allowing secret evidence to be used in prosecutions, expanding the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and wiretap laws, creating a new federal crime of ‘terrorism’ that could be invoked based on political beliefs, permitting the U.S. military to be used in civilian law enforcement, and allowing permanent detention of non-U.S. citizens without judicial review. The Center for National Security Studies said the bill would erode ‘constitutional and statutory due process protections’ and would ‘authorize the Justice Department to pick and choose crimes to investigate and prosecute based on political beliefs and associations.’<ref>https://www.thebigsmoke.com.au/2021/01/10/joe-biden-authored-the-patriot-act-now-hes-promised-new-domestic-terror-laws/</ref>}}

====Free speech====
Biden did not condemn Big Tech censoring and silencing President Trump's social media accounts or conservatives' pages. He also actively took part in censorship by banning comments on the White House YouTube channel after receiving an overwhelming backlash of dislikes.<ref>[https://www.herald.ng/biden-white-house-disables-youtube-comments-after-thousands-dislike-inauguration-video/ Biden White House Disables YouTube Comments After Thousands Dislike Inauguration Video]</ref> The junta [[DNI]] alleged constitutionally protected [[First Amendment]] [[free speech]] rights promote violence in a report entitled, ''Domestic Violent Extremism Poses Heightened Threat in 2021:''

====Detention and harassment of political opponents====

Two weeks before the seizure it was discovered [[Mary McCord (DOJ)]], who succeeded John Carlin as head of the [[DOJ-NSD]] during the corrupt Obama administration and submitted the [[fraud]]ulent [[Carter Page]] FISA warrant to the FISA Court, was hired by FISA Court chief judge James Boasberg as ''[[Amicus Curiae]]''.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2021/04/28/its-official-the-fisa-court-is-compromised-presiding-judge-james-boasberg-hires-former-doj-nsd-head-mary-mccord-as-amici-curiae-to-advise-the-court/</ref><ref>https://archive.is/OBsBU</ref>

Biden portrayed himself as a uniter of Republicans and Democrats. In contradiction to what he says, Biden has very little [[tolerance]] for people who oppose him.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov informed the world that Russia is monitoring the illegal detention and [[human rights]] violations committed against nearly 450 dissidents who were arrested by the junta after they were invited into the [[United States Capitol building]] by [[U.S. Capitol Police]] on January 6, 2021.<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/05/russian-fm-lavrov-speaks-unconstitutional-persecution-jan-6-protesters-held-isolation-us-govt-something-timid-gop-leaders-refuse/</ref><ref>https://tass.com/politics/1296151</ref> Widespread human rights violations against the peaceful protesters by the junta have been reported.<ref>https://www.cnsnews.com/commentary/michelle-malkin/michelle-malkin-shut-down-jan-6-gulag</ref>
The junta attempted to paint with a broad brush anyone who supported President Trump as part of a grand [[conspiracy]]. The Biden DOJ attempted to coerce plea agreements from people who were employed with no criminal history, stable family and community relations, and arrested for trespass by asking the courts to deny bail because the junta needed time to investigate some vast conspiracy.<ref> https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/03/the_january_6_prosecutions_hit_a_speed_bump.html</ref> Many prisoners were held in isolation 23 hours a day.

The U.S. federal lands drilling program yielded some $1.8 billion directly to states in 2020, supporting schools and other programs in places like Wyoming and Utah, according to data from the U.S. Interior Department.
School superintendents from [[Montana]], [[Wyoming]], [[North Dakota]], [[Utah]], and [[Alaska]] have written to Biden asking him to reverse the ban, calling it “imperative that we bring to light the arbitrary and inequitable move to shut down oil and gas production on federal lands in our states that depend on revenues from various taxes, royalties, disbursements, and lease payments to fund our schools, community infrastructure, and public services.”<ref>https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-biden-drilling-newmexico-insight/biden-drilling-ban-forces-democratic-led-new-mexico-to-reckon-with-oil-dependence-idUSKBN2A91JD</ref>}}
====Infrastructure====
:{{See also|Green New Deal|Reparations|}}
Biden's American Jobs Plan would spend roughly $2 trillion on so-called "infrastructure" projects and other [[boondoggle]]s Biden proposed to pay for the spending by increasing taxes. “The largest federal tax increase since 1942,” is how the ''New York Times'' described the Biden plan.<ref>https://reason.com/2021/03/29/heres-how-bidens-proposed-tax-increases-will-affect-you/</ref> Biden claimed that the last five leaders of the [[Federal Reserve]] had declared that his American Jobs Plan proposal will increase economic growth.<ref>https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/speeches-remarks/2021/05/05/remarks-by-president-biden-on-his-administrations-implementation-of-the-american-rescue-plan/</ref> The only problem with Biden's remarks was only three of the last five leaders of the Fed are still alive.<ref>https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/10/politics/fact-check-biden-federal-reserve-moodys-american-jobs-plan/index.html</ref>
====Budget====
While the junta's budget proposal for FY 2022 held Pentagon spending flat, CCP state media called for increases in nuclear weapons.<ref>https://thepoliticalinsider.com/china-state-media-warns-of-intense-showdown-with-america-advocates-more-nuclear-weapons/</ref> At the same time Pentagon analysts project the CCP military to match and overtake the U.S. military in strength in 5 to 10 years. Pentagon spending was rotated out for other domestic vote-buying schemes, such as the Green New Deal disguised as infrastructure, and supposed slave reparations including people of mixed race and immigrants who not need to prove they are descendants of American slaves (ADOS).
====Worker rights====
[[Ford]] Motor Company previously agreed with its workers, the [[United Auto Workers]] (UAW), to spend $900 million on a new electric vehicle product line for its Avon Lake, [[Ohio]] plant. The UAW had endorsed Joe Biden in the 2020 election. By March of 2021, Ford announced it was shifting production to Mexico claiming "conditions had changed since 2019" when the agreement was made, according to ''[[Reuters]]''.<ref>https://www.reuters.com/article/us-mexico-ford-ohio-idUSKBN2B82V9</ref> The junta refused to enforce provisions of the [[USMCA]], which replaced the [[NAFTA]] trade deal.

====Climate change====
At an [[Earth Day]] virtual summit on April 22, 2021, Biden pledged to cut U.S. emissions by half by 2030,<ref>https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/biden-will-commit-halving-u-s-emissions-2030-part-paris-n1264892</ref> the [[European Union]] agreed to go carbon neutral by 2050,<ref>https://www.scmp.com/news/world/europe/article/3130431/european-union-agrees-go-carbon-neutral-2050-ahead-biden-climate</ref> and the People's Republic of China pledged only to reduce coal consumption - starting in 2026.<ref>https://www.reuters.com/world/china/chinas-xi-says-china-will-phase-down-coal-consumption-over-2026-2030-2021-04-22/</ref> The junta also waived sanctions on the Russian Nord Stream II pipeline, enriching Vladimir Putin and in direct contradiction to Biden’s claim that the “climate crisis” is a major factor in foreign policy decisions. The pipeline from Russia to Germany undercuts Germany's efforts to meet [[Paris Climate Agreement]] targets. The Paris Agreement, which Biden rejoined in one of his first actions, also benefits Russia, which simply ignores carbon emission goals.<ref>https://www.dailysignal.com/2021/05/21/what-does-putin-have-on-biden/</ref>
Junta Executive Order on Climate-Related Financial Risk contained all the far-left Green New Deal climate change features to destroy [[fossil fuel]]s, [[capitalism]], jobs and the economy in the name of [[global warming]]. The order allowed the government to do virtually anything in any part of the economy or the financial markets, or labor markets, or [[agriculture]] — or anything — in the name of mitigating risk of [[climate change]]. The ''diktat'' claims that “intensifying impacts of climate change present physical risk to [[asset]]s, publicly traded securities, private investments, and companies — such as increased extreme weather risk leading to supply chain disruptions.”<ref>https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2021/05/20/executive-order-on-climate-related-financial-risk/</ref> The junta claimed the power to regulate everything, to include signing a loan for a new home, how savings and retirement funds are managed, and to “reduce the risk of climate change to the federal budget.”<ref>https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/05/20/fact-sheet-president-biden-directs-agencies-to-analyze-and-mitigate-the-risk-climate-change-poses-to-homeowners-and-consumers-businesses-and-workers-and-the-financial-system-and-federal-government/</ref> Massive and unprecedented central power would come from the District of Columbia and be exercised by upper- and middle-level [[bureaucrat]]s.<ref>https://www.nysun.com/national/bidens-radical-executive-order-on-global-warming/91529/</ref>
===National defense===
:{{See also|Long march through the institutions}}
Under the junta, the most important national security issue is the protection of transgenderism in the [[military]]. This was affirmed in presidential Executive Order No.14004 signed five days after the seizure of power. The White House’s 2021 “Interim National Security Strategic Guidance,” instead of offering guidance on Russian, Iranian and Chinese aggression, the document was laden with PC nonsense. In its 24 pages, the ‘Guidance’ mentions climate change more than a dozen times, as well as racial justice and LGBTQI+ rights.<ref>https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/mar/30/bidens-woke-military/</ref>

On January 29, 2021, four days after Biden’s transgender executive order, defense minister Lloyd Austin followed with a military-wide order that all restrictions on transgenderism would be lifted pending a review of the issue which radical leftists consider crucial to America’s national security.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2021/02/15/barr-the-strange-priorities-of-bidens-department-of-defense/</ref> Biden signed an Executive Order on January 25, 2021 mandating taxpayers to pay for gender reassignment surgery for active military personnel and veterans, with some treatments costing upward of $200,000.<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/military-transgender-surgery-free</ref>
====The Great Purge====
Another of Austin's first actions was to order a 60 day nationwide stand down across all service branches to root out Trump voters, euphemistically referred to as "extremists".<ref>https://greenwald.substack.com/p/the-new-domestic-war-on-terror-is</ref> The junta attempted to identify military personnel who exercised their [[First Amendment]] right to peacefully assemble on January 6, 2020. In a Pentagon briefing with reporters, Ramón "CZ" Colón-López, the senior enlisted adviser to the chairman of the [[Joint Chiefs of Staff]], said that some troops have asked, when the January 6, 2021 riot is brought up, "How come you're not looking at the situation that was going on in [[Seattle]] prior to that?" "This is coming from every echelon that we're talking to," he added.<ref>https://www.military.com/daily-news/2021/03/19/some-troops-see-capitol-riot-blm-protests-similar-threats-top-enlisted-leader-says.html</ref>
====Marxist indoctrination====
On May 14, 2021, Lt Col. Matthew Lohmeier, a commander in the [[United States Space Force]], was relieved of command for criticizing [[Marxist]] ideology.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2021/05/16/lt-col-matthew-lohmeier-commander-of-11th-space-warning-squadron-at-buckley-afb-colorado-relieved-from-duty-after-questioning-creeping-marxist-ideology-in-military/</ref><ref>https://therightscoop.com/space-force-co-gets-canned-for-saying-marxism-and-critical-race-theory-ruling-the-military-is-bad/</ref><ref>https://creativedestructionmedia.com/news/politics/2021/05/16/usaf-lt-col-lohmeier-relieved-of-command-after-cdmedia-interview/</ref> Lohmeier said the Biden junta is teaching in the military that [[patriotism]] is evil.<ref>https://creativedestructionmedia.com/video/2021/05/20/matthew-lohmeier-marxism-in-the-military-teaching-patriotism-is-evil/ </ref><ref>To this day, Russians, who defeated fascism, call World War II "The Great Patriot War" because Marxist appeals to fight fascism didn't work. Only appeals to Mother Russia and patriotism rallied the Russian people to defend their homeland.</ref>
====Islamophobic witchhunts====
After the [[September 11, 2001]] terror attacks, many young [[Patriot]]s rushed to defend their country. The Marxist Biden junta began a [[witchhunt]] to root out alleged [[Islamophobe]]s. The junta dismantled counterterrorism programs and replaced them with Countering Violent Extremism (CVE).
In Biden’s group of outside contractors, the Countering Extremism Working Group (CEWG), several appeared at events for [[CAIR]], [[ICNA]], and other terror-linked organizations. Some appeared at events featuring advocates for Islamic terrorism, [[sharia]], and violence against non-Muslims. The list consists almost entirely of organizations and individuals who supported Biden's election [[coup]]. The group is tasked with dismantling CVE and siccing [[Islamist]] [[activist]]s and their lawyers on the military to implement a ruthless purge of American soldiers.
''Frontpagemag'' reported<ref>https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2021/05/biden-brings-islamic-activists-investigate-us-daniel-greenfield/</ref> that many personnel are from the discredited [[Southern Poverty Law Center]] (SPLC) including Heidi Beirich.
At the start of the [[Obama administration]], Hina Shamsi was fighting on behalf of the Holy Land Foundation whose leaders had been convicted of providing material support to [[Hamas]]. As the head of the [[ACLU]]’s National Security Project, Shamsi, fought fiercely for the Islamic terrorists at [[Guantanamo Bay]]. In addition to Shamsi, there’s fellow [[Pakistan]]i ACLU activist: Manar Waheed.
Faiza Patel co-wrote an article arguing against designating the [[Muslim Brotherhood]] as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO). In another co-written article, Faiza Patel claimed that laws against Sharia were [[Islamophobic]].
The list includes Wael Alzayat in his role as the CEO of Emgage. The national co-chair and founding member of the Islamic group is Khurrum Wahid who has been described as one of the country’s most prominent terror lawyers and whose clients include an [[Al Qaeda]] operative who plotted to kill [[President George W. Bush]] and Sami al-Arian who was linked to Islamic Jihad. Wahid had been placed on a terrorist watch list and Emgage, as counterterrorism researcher Joe Kaufman noted, "holds events at terror-linked mosques”: including one founded by al-Arian. Emgage's board includes Dhabah ‘Debbie’ Almontaser who was forced out of her old job over t-shirts reading “Intifada NYC”. Nada al Hanooti, Emgage's Executive Director for [[Michigan]], is the daughter of Muthanna al Hanooti, a former CAIR leader who was accused of working for [[Saddam Hussein]] and [[Iraq]]'s intelligence agency.
Also on the list of Biden's CEWG partners is Iman Boukadoum, the staff attorney for the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC). The ADC has a long history of defending and excusing Islamic terrorism. "I know many people in Hamas. They are very respectable," its former president Hamzi Moghrabi had said. Former ADC president Hussein Ibish called [[Hezbollah]] “a disciplined and responsible liberation force” whose members “conducted themselves in an exemplary manner.” Boukadoum was most recently hard at work fighting for Abdelhaleem Ashqar, who had been convicted of [[obstruction of justice]] in a case involving the flow of money to Hamas. Ashqar ran for president of the [[Palestinian Authority]] while awaiting trial in the United States. He had argued that the evidence against him had come from a time when “Hamas was not designated as a terrorist organisation” and boasted that, “they wanted me to testify against my people. I said I'd rather die than betray my commitment to freedom and justice for Palestine."

A Harris Poll commissioned by [[GLAAD]] prior to the 2020 election showed that U.S. adults are increasingly uncomfortable with [[LGBT]] issues — with Millennials ages 18 – 34 leading this shift. The number of non-LGBT adults ages 18 – 34 who are uncomfortable with learning a family member is LGBT rose from 24% at the end of the Obama era in 2016 to 36% in 2018. The number of Millennials uncomfortable with the idea of their children having a lesson on LGBT history at school rose from 27% to 39% during that same time. The number of Millennials that GLAAD counts as “allies” — people who are comfortable with the [[homosexual agenda]] and [[progressivism]] — dropped from 62% in 2016 to 45% in 2018.<ref>https://www.christianpost.com/news/millennials-gen-z-growing-uncomfortable-lgbt-movement-survey.html</ref> A fake news poll conducted by the [[Soros]]-funded, [[homosexual]]-centered "[[Human Rights Campaign]]" claims that 98% of [[heterosexual|straight]] [[male]]s refuse to date a [[gender confusion|gender-confused]] person allegedly because of "[[hate]]."<ref>https://ucf.forums.rivals.com/threads/are-you-in-the-98-of-hate.76324/</ref>
The Democrat junta supported passage of the so-called [[Equality Act]], a bill that would eliminate the legal recognition of male and female sex, cater to gender ideology, and designate protection for the unborn as “pregnancy” discrimination. The legislation, which would rewrite civil rights law to include “sexual orientation and [[gender identity]]” as protected classes, would likely upend the national culture as Americans have known it. Ryan Anderson, president of Ethics & Public Policy Center (EPPC) said, “The so-called Equality Act isn’t drafted as a shield to protect vulnerable minorities from unjust discrimination, but as a sword to persecute those who do not embrace new sexual and gender ideologies.”<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/02/19/jjoe-bidens-war-on-women-equality-act-to-end-legal-recognition-of-biological-sex/</ref>
In January 2021 Biden nominated Dr. [[Richard "Rachel" Levine]] - a [[gender confusion|gender-confused]] male who claims to be a "female" - as his Assistant Health Secretary.<ref>https://therightscoop.com/biden-taps-transgender-to-be-assistant-health-secretary-and-hes-very-controversial/</ref> Levine defended the [[genocidal]] "boomer remover" policy of Gov.

Biden will allow children in schools to "change" their gender without their parents' permission. He will also allow [[gender confusion|gender-confused]] boys to play sport with girls, and use their bathrooms and their locker rooms. This was a listed priority on the Biden-Harris campaign website. He will reinstate the Obama-Biden guidance revoked by the Trump-Pence Administration, which will restore gender-confused students’ access to sports, bathrooms, and locker rooms in accordance with their claimed gender identity. The Biden LGBTQ+ policy would allow also biological males who identify as "females" to be granted access to female locker rooms, bathrooms and sports teams without even undergoing confirmation surgery or using hormone replacements.<ref>[https://www.cnsnews.com/article/washington/lucy-collins/hawley-biden-plan-force-schools-let-transgenders-play-girls-sports Hawley: Biden Plan to Force Schools to Let Transgenders Play Girls' Sports, Use Their Locker Rooms, 'Startling Revelation of Where His Mind is At']</ref>

===Anti-science===
On the day Biden occupied the [[Oval Office]] he signed a executive ''diktat'' mandating the wearing of masks on federal property.<ref>https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2021/01/20/executive-order-protecting-the-federal-workforce-and-requiring-mask-wearing/</ref> Within hours of signing it, Biden and members of his family violated the decree.<ref>https://redstate.com/sister-toldjah/2021/01/21/joe-biden-signs-eo-mandating-mask-wearing-on-federal-property-immediately-violates-it-video-n313770</ref>
Throughout the 2020 campaign Biden and other junta officials implored the American people to “trust the science!” when it came to mask-wearing, social distancing, and not gathering in large groups. Days after the [[Center for Disease Control]] (CDC) rescinded its guidelines on mask-wearing, Biden undermined public confidence in the science by continuing to wear a mask and delivering rants about masks and patriotism.<ref>https://redstate.com/bonchie/2021/04/30/joe-biden-ignores-his-own-guidelines-delivers-nonsensical-rant-about-masks-and-patriotism-n371733</ref> As heir to the legacy of former president [[Jimmy Carter]], Biden defied the science and wore a mask in a high-profile visit to the elder patron.<ref>https://redstate.com/sister-toldjah/2021/05/04/joe-biden-embarrasses-himself-and-undermines-cdc-during-visit-with-jimmy-and-rosalynn-carter-n373858</ref>
Although fully vaccinated, after the CDC restrictions were lifted, Kamala Harris and husband Doug Emhoff likewise publicly displayed their lack of confidence in the science when seen kissing with masks on.<ref>https://nypost.com/2021/05/05/kamala-harris-and-doug-emhoff-kiss-with-masks-on-despite-being-vaccinated/</ref>

Junta leader Biden signed an executive order to stop President Trump's executive order keeping medicines affordable.

As soon as the junta took power, some proponents of draconian lockdowns switched to a less hysterical position immediately. Among the most extreme lockdown proponents in the U.S. were Chicago Mayor [[Lori Lightfoot]] and New York City Mayor [[Bill De Blasio]]. In Chicago, Mayor Lightfoot decided that a much less stringent approach would be best.<ref>[https://patch.com/illinois/chicago/lightfoot-says-restaurants-should-reopen-quickly-possible “Lightfoot Says Restaurants Should Reopen As Quickly As Possible “], (Patch, January 14, 2021)</ref> A similar pattern unfolded in New York City.

Biden stated on May 3rd, "When I got elected, I said in the first 100 days we'd get 100 million people vaccinated. I was wrong; we got 230 million vaccinated". AP News's fact check said "No, he misstated both his promise and the results...Altogether, close to 148 million people in the U.S. have received at least one dose and close to 106 million have been fully vaccinated." <ref>https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-race-and-ethnicity-health-government-and-politics-2a95dca4f3868185a725bcf5700fb914</ref><ref>https://www.usnews.com/news/politics/articles/2021-05-03/ap-fact-check-biden-overstates-how-many-americans-immunized</ref> <ref>https://www.startribune.com/ap-fact-check-biden-overstates-how-many-americans-immunized/600053157/</ref>

On Biden's second day occupying the White House he issued a ''diktat'' which has been described as the most extreme directive in the history of modern [[law enforcement]]. Acting Secretary David Pekoske issued a memorandum on the evening of January 20, 2021 putting into place a [[deportation]] moratorium. There were narrow exceptions for terrorists and spies and none for [[criminal]]s and criminal suspects. It is estimated that about 12,000 criminal illegal aliens per month will not be deported from the United States throughout the existence of the Biden/Harris regime.<ref>https://www.newswars.com/over-12000-criminal-illegals-will-be-freed-monthly-former-trump-official-warns/</ref> These illegals can vote unchallenged under the Democrats "[[For the People Act]]".

According to [[CBS News]], children were held in overcrowded conditions, and some were having to sleep on the floor and were going hungry. One immigration lawyer representing the children said there were kids who have only showered once in seven days and weren’t allowed to shower more often. The children were not allowed outdoors and complained of not seeing the sun in days. The Donna complex which is supposed to hold only 250 people held 1,800, or 729% of its pandemic era capacity. The migrants were not able to practice any social distancing because of the massive number of people.<ref>https://www.cbsnews.com/news/migrant-children-detained-in-overcrowded-conditions/</ref> The ''New York Post'' wrote in an editorial, "While we feel Trump was wrongly vilified for these facilities, Biden deserves every knock of hypocrisy leveled against him."<ref>https://nypost.com/2021/02/24/bidens-kids-in-cages-prove-his-hypocrisy-on-immigration/</ref> ''[[Time magazine]]'' pleaded for the Dear Leader to end locking babies in cages.<ref>https://time.com/5945307/biden-end-detention-migrant-children/</ref>
''[[The Washington Post]]'' reported “[y]oung people are waiting in cramped, austere holding cells with concrete floors and benches. Lights remain on 24 hours a day, agents say, and there are few places to play.”<ref>https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/unaccompanied-minors-detention-cells/2021/03/10/a0d39390-81c6-11eb-bb5a-ad9a91faa4ef_story.html</ref> [[CNN]]’s Pamela Brown reported that “as the situation at the U.S.-Mexico border gets worse, the media is being kept from it despite calls of transparency from the Biden administration. Reporters and photographers were not been allowed inside the facilities where thousands of unaccompanied children are being kept in similar to jail-like conditions."<ref> https://youtu.be/FrUwXhmgLlM</ref>
When negative publicity arose, the Biden team then emptied the cages and forced children to sleep in buses overnight, according to [[NBC News]].<ref>https://twitchy.com/brettt-3136/2021/05/13/joe-bidens-america-migrant-children-stuck-overnight-on-parked-buses-for-consecutive-days-and-nights/</ref>
====Narcotics trafficing====
Prior to the junta [[open borders|opening the border]] [[bi-partisan]] experts estimated the money made on drug trafficking by the Mexican Drug Cartels at around $500 billion, or one half-trillion dollars per year. Sen. [[Sonny Purdue]] said in 2019: “At half a trillion dollars — $500 billion — that makes the cartel business and the drug traffic just in Mexico alone coming across to the United States bigger than [[Walmart]], to put it in perspective. So this is larger than our largest companies.” Democrat Sen. [[Dianne Feinstein]] quoted the same figure testifing, “The illicit drug trade is a business, valued at anywhere between $426 [billion] and $652 billion…”.<ref>https://www.investmentwatchblog.com/has-joe-biden-sold-out-america-to-the-mexican-drug-cartels/</ref>
====Amnesty====
Biden didn’t consider illegal immigrants as illegals, he calls them instead "undocumented immigrants". <ref> https://joebiden.com/immigration/</ref> In a presidential debate he admitted that he will give citizenship to 11 million illegal immigrants.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbzEuEr7Fio</ref> Biden stated that he wants to reform [[ICE]] policies, without saying which of these policies he wants to reform.<ref> https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/biden-knocks-left-wing-of-democratic-party-we-shouldnt-abolish-ice</ref>

Prof. Glenn Diesen of the University of South-Eastern Norway, and an editor at the ''Russia in Global Affairs'' journal wrote:
The current international disorder is caused by an interregnum – the world is currently stuck between a unipolar and a multipolar format. [[The West]] is pushing for a return to the unipolar era that existed before [[Magnitsky Act|sanctions on Russia]] and the economic war against China. However, the two Eurasian giants, Russia and China, have spent the past years adjusting to a multipolar system. The West will insist that on maintaining liberal [[hegemony]] due to a commitment and belief in [[liberal values]], among [[elitism|elites]] (although that is no longer uniform), while Russia and China will reject a value-based system that is instrumental to impose an untenable unipolar order. There is no going back as the world has moved on, although the West is not yet ready to move forward.
The Strategic Culture Foundation think tank, in their document ''Leviathan Mobilizes For Decisive Battle'', <ref>https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/leviathan-mobilises-decisive-battle</ref> claims "the plan is out of control, and becoming [[progressive]]ly more bizarre. The American unipolar moment is ‘done’. It has created oppositions of various kinds, both abroad and at home. [[Conservative]] and traditional impulses have reacted against the [[radical]] ideological agenda, and crucially, the [[2008 Financial Crisis]] and near collapse of the system foretold to the élites of the ultimate coming end to the U.S.’ financial hegemony, and concomitantly to America’s primacy. It forced a critical juncture.
[[File:Image cefc 2016 05 05.png|right|350px|thumb|CEFC China Energy chairman [[Ye Jianming]], the former deputy secretary of the [[People's Liberation Army]] General Political Department International Liaison Department, formed a business partnership with the [[Biden family corruption|Biden family]].

Now they are at a crucial impasse. When they speak about [[Great Reset|Re-set]], this means a forced return to the continuation of the agenda.
But it is not as straight-forward as it seems. Everything seemed almost primed to fall into place twenty years ago; yet now, the [[Establishment]] is having to fight for every element of this strategy because everywhere they encounter a growing resistance.
And it is no insignificant resistance. In America alone, some 74 million Americans reject the [[Culture war|cultural war]] being waged on them.
The globalist call to arms is evident. The world clearly has changed during the last four years.
Globalist forces, therefore, are being mobilized to win a last battle in the ‘long-war’ – looking to break-through everywhere. Defeating Trump is the first goal. Discrediting all varieties of [[Europe]]an [[populism]] is another.
The U.S. thinks to lead the maritime and rim-land powers in imposing a searing [[psychological]], technological and economic defeat on the Russia-China-Iran alliance. In the past, the outcome might have been predictable. This time Eurasia may very well stand solid against a weakened Oceana (and a faint-hearted Europe). It would shake [[Leviathan]] to its foundations. Who knows what might then emerge from the ruins of [[postmodernism|post-modernity]]."

=====Nuclear threat=====
Stratcom Commander Charles Richard testified to the Senate Armed Services Committee that China’s nuclear capabilities are advancing so rapidly that they’re not even bothering with intelligence vetted more than a month ago in their briefings because it’s probably already out of date. Richard added that a portion of China’s nuclear arsenal has been primed for ready use.<ref>https://consortiumnews.com/2021/04/23/rising-threat-of-nuclear-war-is-barely-noticed/</ref>
=====U.S. power grid=====
One of the junta's first acts was to expose the U.S. electrical power grid to Communist Chinese subversion. Biden has issued an executive diktat suspending President Trump's Executive Order 13920. The original Trump order stated that any use of bulk-power system equipment “designed, developed, manufactured, or supplied, by persons owned by, controlled by, or subject to the jurisdiction or direction of a foreign adversary” is prohibited. The [[U.S. Department of Energy]] lists China, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, and North Korea as foreign adversaries to the United States under this order. China is the only nation on the list currently engaging in mass production of electronics, manufacturing equipment, and other forms of technology like software, circuits, and instrumentation.
By suspending this rule, the government is free to procure power equipment from China, or U.S. companies operating manufacturing facilities in China. The Biden regime suspended this protection at the same time that U.S. reliance on foreign oil increased due to bans on new domestic energy production.<ref>https://uncoverdc.com/2021/01/26/president-biden-creates-vulnerabilities-in-americas-power-grid/</ref>
=====Not qualified to lead=====

The Chinese Communists, who own the Biden family with a 90% share of their joint [[Bohai Harvest]] venture, then went on to play the [[race card]] against the cultural norms of the [[Democratic party]], saying that [[Black]] people are being “slaughtered” in the United States.<ref> https://www.politico.com/news/2021/03/18/china-us-alaska-meeting-undiplomatic-477118</ref><ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/03/us-not-qualification-speak-china-position-strength-chinas-top-diplomat-humiliates-bidens-team-american-soil-video/</ref>

Former [[CIA]] analyst and [[National Security Council]] [[chief of staff]] Fred Fleitz said Biden should fire Blinken after the summit dissolved into insults and little diplomatic progress. Fleitz observed, "it was one of the most incompetent displays I've ever seen by an American diplomat.... they were just virtue signaling before the lapdog American media. It was a serious mistake and it set back our policies and it made them look inept because they weren't ready for the counter attack by Chinese officials."<ref>https://justthenews.com/world/asia/us-china-summit-alaska-was-disaster-intelligence-expert-says</ref> Former [[DNI]] [[Ric Grenell]] noted,
"I hope that this is a reminder for Jake Sullivan and Secretary of State Blinken that when you spend four years denigrating America in order to get some sort of political leverage internally, a [[partisan]] win so to speak, you damage the United States. Because what they've done in terms of [[Black Lives Matter|BLM]] narratives and really tearing down our history, I mean you look at all of the [[violence]] that the Democrats clearly did. They hyped this and messaged this for partisan political purposes over the last four years in order to gain power. That now is being used against them. And what they have to understand is tearing down America, and telling Americans that they should be ashamed of our history, or they should be ashamed of who we are, also sends a strong message to our enemies that we don't have credibility with them. To be lectured on American soil in Alaska by the Chinese is despicable. And they created this - the Secretary of State, Jake Sullivan, Joe
Biden, Susan Rice - they created this dilemma. They really took the United States and they damaged us with their four-year narrative."<ref>https://youtu.be/IkZVV6IPEWs</ref>

Biden reversed the Trump administration's opposition to the [[Nord Stream II]] pipeline. This was a serious blow to [[Polish]], [[Hungarian]], and [[Ukrainian]] independence.

Russia has attempted to pressure Ukraine numerous times since the break-up of the [[Soviet Union]] to abandon its bid to join [[NATO]] by cutting off oil and gas supplies.

{{quotebox-float|"The question for the American people is, ''Are we willing to go to war with Russia on behalf of Ukraine?'' We need to understand that such a war would come at a cost beyond anything that we can really imagine. This is something that will directly impact every single one of your viewers and all of our loved ones. This is a war that is not a game. It's a war in which there are no winners. Russia has thousands of nuclear weapons aimed towards us that could hit any town or city in America in less than 30 minutes and exact a cost upon every one of us that would result in excruciating death and suffering beyond comprehension. Hundreds of millions of people dying and suffering, seeing their flesh being burned from their bones. This is something you know you can't really even imagine. And it's a cost that we will all pay.
Why in the world would we ever contemplate going to war with Russia? Honestly, it is one that we should not do for those very reasons. If you look at the impacts of what a [[nuclear war]] brings it, really brings about the end of the world as we know it. And our leaders should understand this consequence and take it seriously. And this is why President Biden, instead of continuing to escalate tensions and continuing this new Cold War between the United States and Russia, he needs to de-escalate these tensions and actually focus on bringing an end to this new Cold War because if he doesn't, then it's not a question of if we go to war with Russia if this war ends up with a nuclear holocaust, it really is then just a question of when. And if we continue down this path that we are on it's something that could happen a lot sooner than any of us think."<ref>https://youtu.be/iywKH60NUGg</ref>}}
In May 2021 it was revealed that Joe Biden met with Ukrainian, Russian and [[Kazakhstan]]i business associates of Hunter in the private “Garden Room” at Café Milano,<ref>https://nypost.com/2021/05/26/hunter-biden-arranged-secret-dinner-with-business-partners-and-vp-joe/</ref> a Georgetown institution whose catchphrase is: “Where the world’s most powerful people go" in April 2015 while Biden was vice president.

{{quotebox-float|“Dear Hunter, thank you for inviting me to DC and giving an opportunity to meet your father and spent [sic] some time together....It’s realty [sic] an honor and pleasure.”}}

===Middle East===
Even President Trump's harshest critics conceded that President Trump had been successful in Middle East peace negotiations. Biden's only notable intervention had been to restore hundreds of millions of dollars in American aid to the [[Palestinian Authority]], thereby reversing the Trump administration's decision to cut aid over its refusal to maintain a dialogue with Washington. Shortly after restoring funds, Palestinian militants again started targeting Israeli civilians with rockets and missiles. The extent of Iran's military support for Palestinian militants was revealed by an official with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist organization who boasted: "The rockets we use to pound [[Tel Aviv]], our weapons, and our food are provided by Iran."<ref>https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/17370/biden-arab-israel-violence</ref>

The [[Drug Enforcement Administration]] deputy chief of operations Matthew Donahue told [[NPR]] the Biden junta has unraveled efforts to target drug cartels operating inside Mexico. The collapse of joint drug interdiction efforts has occurred at a time when drug cartels are manufacturing huge quantities of [[fentanyl]] and [[methamphetamine]]s in illegal labs inside Mexico. Under Biden, those illicit drugs are being smuggled into communities across the United States, driving an explosion in overdose deaths. "It's a national health threat, it's a national safety threat," Donahue said, adding that drug gangs and criminal organizations now operate inside Mexico with impunity.

His early presidential activity centered around proposing, lobbying for, and signing into law the [[American Rescue Plan Act of 2021]] to speed up the United States' recovery from the [[COVID-19 pandemic in the United States|COVID-19 pandemic]] and the [[COVID-19 recession#United States|ongoing recession]], as well as a [[List of executive actions by Joe Biden|series of executive orders]]. Biden's orders addressed the pandemic and reversed several Trump administration policies, including by rejoining the [[Paris Agreement]] on [[climate change]] and reaffirming protections for [[Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals]] recipients. In April 2021, Biden announced the [[2021 withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan|withdrawal of all U.S. troops from Afghanistan by September 2021]].

In 1972 Biden re-cycled the [[John_C._Calhoun#positive good|racist rhetoric of John C. Calhoun]], arguing that school segregation was a "positive good" for Blacks. Calhoun famously laid out his doctrine of separation of the races as a civilizing force among Blacks which became Democrat talking points before the [[Dred Scott]] decision, throughout the [[Civil War]], [[Reconstruction]], the [[Jim Crow]] era, and the [[New Deal]]. In a Democrat [[filibuster]] on the floor of the [[Senate]], Calhoun famously said:
{{quotebox-float|"I hold that in the present state of civilization, where two races of different origin, and distinguished by color, and other physical differences, as well as intellectual, are brought together, the relation now existing in the slaveholding States between the two, is, instead of an evil, a good—a positive good."}}
Biden resurrected the idea that segregation was "for their own good" and that Blacks were grateful for it.
{{Quotebox-float|“I think the concept of busing … that we are going to [[integrate]] people so that they all have the same access and they learn to grow up with one another and all the rest, is a rejection of the whole movement of black pride, a rejection of the entire black awareness concept, where black is beautiful, black culture should be studied; and the cultural awareness of the importance of their own identity, their own individuality.”<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/read-the-transcript-of-the-october-1975-npr-interview-with-sens-joe-biden-and-edward-brooke</ref>}}

In the 21st century Biden tried to separate himself from his previous racist statements on school integration:
{{quotebox-float|"Poor kids are just as smart as white kids."}}
[[File:Biden racial jungle.jpeg|right|300px|thumb|Biden: "My children are going to grow up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle."<ref>https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/biden-racial-jungle-quote/</ref>]]
Biden led a coalition of segregationists that was opposed by Republican Sen. [[Edward Brooke]], the first [[African American]] senator elected since Democrats forced the end of [[Reconstruction]] after the [[American Civil War|Civil War]]. National Public Radio's David Ensor asked Biden, "What about a constitutional amendment? Isn’t that what you’re gonna have to end up supporting if you want to stop court ordered busing, too?" Biden responded,
{{Quotebox-float|"That would clearly do it. I’m hopeful, and I have — now that I have some sort of new allies in this area, it’s become respectable now for [[liberal]]s to at least say publicly what they’ve been saying in private, that busing doesn’t work. We are trying to figure out whether or not we can come up with an innovative piece of legislation which would limit the remedy, and I don’t — honestly don’t know whether we can come up with something constitutional. And if we can’t, I will not in an attempt to eliminate busing violate the Constitution. I won’t do that. The only way, if I’m gonna go at it, I’m gonna go at it through a Constitutional Amendment if it can’t be done through a piece of legislation."}}
Ensor reported that Biden proposed renewing segregation because busing "wasn't working" ("wasn't working" to the electoral advantage of Democrats and not necessarily to the cause of equal rights for Blacks), and Biden was afraid that older liberal colleagues were blind to how Black separatists felt about their children being bused to [[white]] schools.
{{Quotebox-float|"There are those of we [[social experiment|social planner]]s who think somehow that if we just [[subrogate]] man’s individual characteristics and traits by making sure that a presently heterogeneous society becomes a totally homogeneous society, that somehow we’re going to solve our social ills. Quite to the contrary."}}
Title VI of the [[1964 Civil Rights Act]] prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin in programs or activities receiving federal financial assistance.<ref>https://quizlet.com/45411923/ethical-and-legal-issues-2-flash-cards/</ref> Biden told the ''Philadelphia Enquirer'' on October 12, 1975:
{{quotebox-float|“Liberals have rejected common sense. Anybody who has studied the area knows that we don't have a workable rehabilitation program. Yet we continue to insist that the function of prison is to rehabilitate, not punish.

George Wallace praised Biden as "one of the outstanding young politicians of America."<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/joe-biden-once-said-democrats-needed-a-liberal-george-wallace</ref> Wallace is famous for coining the slogan in a gubernatorial inaugural address,

The same year Biden authored an amendment to gut Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. ''[[Politico]]'' writes of the whole sordid affair, {{quotebox-float|Biden morphed into a leading anti-busing crusader—all the while continuing to insist that he supported the goal of school desegregation, he only opposed busing as the means to achieve that end.

It enabled Biden to choose votes over principles, while acting as if he was not doing so....In a seminal moment, the Senate thus turned against desegregation.

Sen. James Abourezk of [[South Dakota]] related how Biden reacted when Abrourezek tried to block the amendment:
{{quotebox-float|‘Abourezk, you **********, if I ever vote for another one of your bills, it'll be a cold day in hell.'
‘Calm down, Joe,' I told him, ‘You're eventually gonna thank me for doing this.'

A few days later, Biden came into the scheduled committee meeting, this time with a broad, friendly grin aimed directly at me.
‘Jesus, Abourezk, you were right,' he said. ‘I am gonna thank you. You should see the Delaware newspapers—big front-page headlines saying, ‘Biden Battles Liberals in Washington.'

''The New York Times'' published a lengthy story on Biden's advocacy of segregation. In a 1977 congressional hearing related to anti-desegregation orders, Biden emphasized,
{{quotebox-float|"Unless we do something about this, my children are going to grow up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle."<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/15/us/politics/biden-busing.html</ref>}}
Republican Sen. [[Edward Brooke]], the first black senator ever to be popularly elected, called Biden's amendment “the greatest symbolic defeat for [[civil rights]] since 1964.” Brooke accused Biden of leading an assault on integration.

Prof. Ronnie Dunn said opposition to busing was motivated by [[racism]] and that without the court-ordered policy Biden probably would not have become vice president in 2009. “What I find ironic is that [Biden] was the vice president under a president who, if it hadn’t been for the social interaction that occurred during the era of busing, I argue we likely would not have seen the election of Barack Obama." Dunn, an Urban Studies professor at Cleveland State University and author of the book ''Boycotts, Busing, & Beyond'', said Biden made the case in favor of maintaining segregation. "That was an argument against desegregation.” Dunn said Biden must address the issue if he runs for president. “People have to be held accountable."<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/joe-biden-embraced-segregation-in-1975-claiming-it-was-a-matter-of-black-pride</ref>

When Biden announced his candidacy ''Politico'' attempted to poo-poo and explain away Biden and liberal Democrat racism with a back-handed slap at [[school vouchers]] for minority students, which liberal elites have strenuously opposed ever since the Biden Amendment passed:
{{quotebox-float|School desegregation, as part of a broader suite of civil rights reforms, was once as a vital component of the Democratic Party platform.

Party leaders, even the most progressive among them, rarely propose serious solutions to this vexing problem.

Biden went on in the same breath, {{quotebox-float|"It doesn't matter whether or not the person that is accosting your son or daughter or my son or daughter, my wife, your husband, my mother, your parents, it doesn't matter whether or not they were deprived as a youth. It doesn't matter whether or not they had no background that enabled them to become socialized into the fabric of society. It doesn't matter whether or not they're the victims of society. The end result is they're about to knock my mother on the head with a lead pipe, shoot my sister, beat up my wife, take on my sons."}}
Biden said, that he didn't care "why someone is a malefactor in society" and that criminals needed to be "away from my mother, your husband, our families." Biden added "we should focus on them now" because "if we don't, they will, or a portion of them, will become the predators 15 years from now."
Biden's comments echoed first lady [[Hillary Clinton]]'s inflammatory statement about "Superpredators" with "no conscience, no empathy" and "we need to bring them to heel."

===Biden Crime Bill===
{{Main|United States Senate career of Joe Biden}}
:{{Main article|The New Jim Crow}}
Biden was a staunch opponent of school desegregation in the 1970s and leading crusader for mass incarceration in the 1980s and 1990s. Biden described [[African American]] felons in the aftermath of the Central Park Five jogger case as 'predators' too [[sociopath]]ic to rehabilitate,<ref>https://www.cnn.com/2019/03/07/politics/biden-1993-speech-predators/index.html</ref> and [[white supremacist]] senators as his friends.
Biden boasts as one of his greatest legislative achievements passage of the 1994 Crime bill which locked up 10% of the Black adult male population of the United States.<ref>http://www.prisonpolicy.org/research/incarceration_rates_growth_causes/</ref>
When [[President George H.W. Bush]] asked for a record increase in funding to fight the [[War on Drugs]], Biden told a TV interviewer
{{Quotebox|"In a nutshell, the President's plan does not include enough police officers to catch the violent thugs, enough prosecutors to convict them, enough judges to sentence them or enough prison cells to put them away for a long time."<ref>http://articles.latimes.com/1989-09-06/news/mn-1646_1_drug-war</ref><ref>http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2018/12/first-step-act-skepticism.html</ref>}}
Biden, [[Ted Kennedy]], and [[Strom Thurmond]] worked on proposals that raised maximum penalties, removed a directive requiring the US Sentencing Commission to take into account prison capacity, and created the cabinet-level “drug czar” position. In 1984, they passed the Comprehensive Crime Control Act, which, among other things, abolished [[parole]], imposed a less generous cap on “good time” sentence reductions, and allowed the Sentencing Commission to issue more punitive guidelines.

The bill is known for its sentencing disparities which led to mass incarceration of Blacks.<ref>https://fair.org/home/senate-crime-bill-unscrutinized-by-the-press/</ref>]]
Biden bragged on the Senate floor that it was under his and Thurmond's leadership that Congress passed a law sending anyone caught with a rock of cocaine the size of a quarter to jail for a minimum of five years - the notoriously racist hundred-to-one sentencing disparity between crack and powder cocaine. In the same speech Biden took credit for [[civil asset forfeiture]] and seizure laws, and demanded to know why [[Papa Bush]] hadn't sentenced more drug dealers to life in prison or exercise the [[death penalty]] once Congress had given him that power.<ref name="c-span.org"/>
Biden's version of a new crime bill added more than forty crimes that would be eligible for the [[death penalty]]. Biden boasted “we do everything but hang people for jaywalking.”<ref name="books.google.com"/> The [[NAACP]] and other groups lobbied against the bill.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/1991/10/27/us/civil-libertarians-go-after-crime-bills.html</ref> Although the 1991 crime bill was defeated by Republicans, the 1994 Biden/Clinton crime bill was passed.<ref>''[https://books.google.com/books?id=SGUJBAAAQBAJ&lpg=PT142&dq=biden%20strongly%20believes%20the%20administration%20needs%20to%20seize%20control%20of%20the%20issue%20by%20upping%20the%20ante&pg=PT142#v=onepage&q=biden%20strongly%20believes%20the%20administration%20needs%20to%20seize%20control%20of%20the%20issue%20by%20upping%20the%20ante&f=false The First Civil Right: How Liberals Built Prison America]'', Naomi Murakawa.</ref>
By 2001, the United States had the highest rate of incarceration in the world. [[Human Rights Watch]] reported that in seven states, African Americans constituted 80 to 90 percent of all drug offenders even though they were no more likely than whites to use or sell illegal drugs. Prison admissions for drug offenses reached a level in 2000 for African Americans more than 26 times the level they had been under [[Ronald Reagan]].<ref>[https://www.thenation.com/article/hillary-clinton-does-not-deserve-black-peoples-votes/ Why Hillary Clinton Doesn’t Deserve the Black Vote], Michelle Alexander, ''The Nation'', February 10, 2016</ref> Biden's "social planning" had proven effective.

===Mass incarceration===

Sen. [[Cory Booker]] told the NAACP convention in [[Detroit]] during the [[2020 Democrat primaries]] in response to another so-called "criminal justice reform" proposal by Biden:
{{quotebox-float|For a guy who helped to be an architect of mass incarceration, this in an inadequate solution to what is a raging crisis in our country.<ref>https://thefederalist.com/2019/07/24/cory-booker-labels-joe-biden-architect-mass-incarceration/</ref>}}
In May 2019 journalist and historian Shaun King observed, {{Quotebox|I’ve heard a very dangerous lie being told about how the systems of mass incarceration were built in this nation. I didn’t expect to have to respond this way because I didn’t expect Joe Biden to lie about the 1994 Crime Bill. He wrote it. He fought for it. And the results were devastating. Every single expert on this topic agrees.<br><br>This week Joe Biden took the stance that not only is he not sorry for the Crime Bill, but that it didn’t even increase mass incarceration. And it’s shameful because either he’s willfully lying, which is horrible, or he’s just plain ignorant about the true impact of the bill, which is also horrible. Either way, I have a major problem with it because these laws are still in effect and they are doing damage in our communities every single day, 24 hours a day.<ref>https://www.facebook.com/shaunking/videos/688203931610804/</ref>}}

The Leftist ''Jacobin'' magazine summed up Biden's record:
{{Quotebox-float|"It’s not as if Biden didn’t know what he was doing.... He just didn’t care. Biden had made a calculated decision that the elections he would win were worth the damage he inflicted....<br>But even if Biden has subsequently learned the error of his ways, the rank cynicism and callousness involved in his two-decade-long championing of carceral policies should be more than enough to give anyone pause about his qualities as a leader, let alone a [[progressive]] one."<ref>https://www.jacobinmag.com/2018/08/biden-crime-mass-incarceration-police-prisons</ref>}}
Biden now advocates for a man sentenced to prison to choose to be incarcerated in a women's prison.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0ovc0BAUYo&feature=youtu.be</ref>
Biden became [[ranking minority member]] of the [[Senate Judiciary Committee]] in 1981. In 1984, he was a Democratic floor manager for the successful passage of the [[Comprehensive Crime Control Act]]; over time, the law's tough-on-crime provisions became controversial and in 2019, Biden called his role in passing the bill a "big mistake".<ref>{{Cite news |last=Herndon |first=Astead W. |date=January 21, 2019 |title=Biden Expresses Regret for Support of Crime Legislation in the 1990s |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/21/us/politics/biden-crime-bill-regrets.html |access-date=January 21, 2019 |issn=0362-4331 |archive-date=November 10, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201110162903/https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/21/us/politics/biden-crime-bill-regrets.html |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/06/us/politics/joe-biden-2020-president.html "Biden in 2020?

===Anita Hill hearings===
Biden as chair of the Judiciary Committee, called for extended hearings to delay a vote on Thomas and accommodate her last-minute allegations with televised hearings that traumatized the country. Biden told Sen. [[Arlen Specter]] that “It was clear to me from the way she was answering the questions, [Hill] was lying” about the central theme of her testimony. Biden used [[homophobia]], allegations by a Republican Senator that Anita Hill had "certain proclivities" to discredit her testimony, to attack Hill's critics while at the same time fight the nomination of an [[uppity]] Black. Biden has been widely criticized for his [[racist]], [[sexist]], and [[bigot]]ted handling of the hearings.<ref>https://www.essence.com/news/politics/joe-biden-anita-hill-comment-2020-presidential-run/</ref><ref>https://youtu.be/sM19YOqs7hU</ref>
Thomas said he would rather have been the victim of an assassin's bullet than suffer what the hearings did to him.<ref>http://content.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,974074,00.html</ref> [[Democrat]]s were outraged that a [[Republican]] president would nominate a [[conservative]] [[African-American]] role model for Black youths to the Supreme Court.
Hill described her private conversation with Joe Biden shortly before he entered the [[2020 presidential election]] as "deeply unsatisfying."<ref>https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/anita-hill-says-recent-conversation-with-joe-biden-was-deeply-unsatisfying</ref>

===Flagship of the Confederacy===
:{{See also|Southern Manifesto}}
The Southern Manifesto was a document written after the landmark Supreme Court 1954 ruling [[Brown v. Board of Education]], which integrated public schools. It was drawn up by legislators in the [[United States Congress]] opposed to racial integration in public places. It was signed by politicians from the former [[Confederate States of America|Confederate States]]. All but twenty-eight of the 138 southern Democrat members of Congress signed the Manifesto, including 19 of the Majority Democrat Senators.<ref>https://d1lexza0zk46za.cloudfront.net/history/am-docs/southern-manifesto.pdf</ref>
The Southern Manifesto was signed on a large mahogany conference table in Sen. [[John Stennis]]' office which Stennis used as his desk and referred to as "the flagship of the [[Confederacy]]."<ref>[https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/CDOC-111sdoc23/pdf/CDOC-111sdoc23.pdf p. x]</ref> The table was used by segregationist and co-signer of the Southern Manifesto, Sen. [[Richard Russell]], before his retirement. When Stennis retired in 1988, Biden took over Stennis' office, including the conference table. When Biden was elected vice-president in 2008, Biden had the conference table moved into the vice-president's office.<ref>[https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/resources/pdf/Kaufman_Oral_History.pdf pg. 51]</ref>

And because of a corrupt system that exists in [[Mexico]], there is the 1% of the population at the top, a very small little [[middle class]], and the rest in abject poverty.
Folks, I voted for a fence. I voted and, unlike most Democrats - some of you won't like it - I voted for 700 miles of fence. Let me tell you, we can build a fence 40 stories high - unless we change the dynamic in Mexico, and you will you like this - and punish American employers who knowingly violate the law when in fact they hire illegals. Unless you do those two things, all the rest is window dressing. Now I know I'm not supposed to say it that bluntly. But they are facts. They are the facts.
And so, everything else we do is in between here, everything else we do is at the margin. The reason why I thought, parenthetically, why I believe the fence is needed is not really related to immigration as much as drugs. I'm the guy who wrote the national crime bill. I'm the guy that wrote the national drug trafficing. I'm the guy who wrote the law that set up a drug czar. Let me tell you something, folks.

I've been doing this a long time. I've known every single major world leader in every country for the past 20 years.
