Question: How much longer will Joe exploit COVID to implement his left-wing grab bag?
Answer: As long as the media keeps covering up for him.
American Spectator (5/19/21) column: "Sometimes we all need a little tough love, and boy did I get a dose from one of my board members recently. 'You might as well roll up shop,' she said. 'COVID’s been over for six months out here, but you’re still obsessed with it. Meanwhile Biden’s radical agenda is advancing every day.' I can’t say she was wrong (although those of us with kids have had a tougher time moving from pandemic to post-pandemic while they are still masked and messed with). And I’m afraid that if I’ve failed to keep my eye on the big-government ball, so have a lot of other people. So that ends today. Let’s take stock of the bewildering array of misguided tax hikes, regulatory power grabs, corrupt union giveaways, and assaults on constitutional rights advancing every day in Democrat-dominated Washington. On energy, Biden’s aggressive anti-oil-and-gas agenda has already vaulted some of America back to Obama-era $4-per-gallon gasoline in just a matter of months. Biden rejoined the Paris climate agreement (which imposes expensive limits on the U.S. but not China), banned oil and gas leasing on federal lands and waters, and revoked the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline. Those were well covered in the media. But he also repealed Trump’s transparency rules to bring back secret science at the EPA and has the Treasury Department and the SEC cooking up ways to leverage financial regulatory power to make fossil fuels more expensive and less available."
