LOL....true story....One of the EO's that gets signed EVERY time the WH changes parties, for like 40 years or more, is something that prevents foreign aid from being used in healthcare facilities that provide abortions.

So every Repub blocks that, and then every Dem reverses the order.  And this would be the 4th or 5th time or whatever this policy has reversed.  And every time it reverses, the butthurt's media talk about how horrible the POTUS is to sign it.

Now, knowing that money is fungible...and knowing that many laws contain loopholes that make this sort of grandstanding possible, intentionally....and because we've never had 60 votes in the Senate to to obviate this particular EO....

Anyway, I learned about this particularly heinous EO 4 years ago when Trump signed it and my liberal friend said "see, it really does matter who POTUS is".  And today there are conservatives saying the same thing.  And they're all idiots, because this has been going on for years and it's purely symbolic.  I looked at my friend, shook my head and laughed, and then spent 15 seconds to google the first result to show him how he got played by the bullshit article he read that morning in HuffPo.

Are you gonna argue the overreach also?  40+ EO in a week.  You do know that Obama and Trump did 1 each?

Overreaching on symbolic gestures?  Sure.  But Biden could sign 100 useless EO's and it still wouldn't be anything other than imagined consequence.

40 executive orders already.  That cannot age well in 2022.

58,000 jobs gone in energy industry where some of those guys making $200k a year.

He better slow down or there will be nothing left here to destroy next month.

So the estimated 58,000 energy industry jobs lost when Keystone was stopped is imagined?  Ok chief.

Biden’s press secretary is not great. “Circle back”, and then can’t even comment on Covid. Woof.

LOL, Biden takes no questions, and his press secretary gives no answers.  I wonder how long the media is going to let this go on?

Widely reported that primary union and secondary jobs will add up to a large number.

I have to admit, the Biden admin is seriously lacking in the new presidential metrics. 12 days in office, he is behind  the Trump regime by 737 lies.

Dude’s gotta up his game

LOL, that "lies tracker" is as rigged as the 2020 election!

Of course, in order to potentially lie, the Biden admin would have to actually tell us something about the state of things.

At his stage of dementia, I doubt he would recognize he is lying.

At least I'm seeing now where the leftwing media is calling for an end to lockdowns.

Who knew!  Nobody thought that could happen!  No one could have predicted it!

I am old enough to remember when predicting this was a mockable offense to some.

Jesus...this guy has never even checked in for the job.  Who is answering the phone at 3am?  Not this old man that goes to bed at 9pm

He isn't glued to the television for the better part of the day listening to idiots on Fox?

No he is asleep at the wheel while the radical left like AOC and Pelosi ride shotgun.  Dont forget all the people behind the scenes (unelected officials) that are going to crush us like Susan Rice  who is running domestic policy.  Biden has no clue what is going on.
