In an unprecedented flurry of authoritarian activity for a new president, the Hologram has signed 43 executive orders in his first dozen days in office. This from someone who as a candidate claimed that “Trump was a dictator” in signing various executive orders, as noted here:
“I’ve got to get the votes,” said then-candidate Biden.
“I have this strange notion, we are a democracy … if you can’t get the votes … you can’t [legislate] by executive order unless you’re a dictator. We’re a democracy. We need consensus,” said Biden.
Yet, it is abundantly clear that Biden is essentially ruling by diktat in reversing dozens of Trump policies – from canceling the Keystone XL Pipeline to enabling “transgenders” in the armed forces to opening the border (and ceasing construction of the wall) to rejoining the Paris Climate Accords. Others being contemplated could involve curbing Second Amendment rights, a return to the Obama-era

As part of a broader effort to address climate change, President Biden issued two executive orders (EOs) that call for the review of existing leasing practices for federal lands and temporarily prevent new oil and gas leases on federal lands and in offshore waters. In a new insight, AAF’s Director of Energy Policy Ewelina Czapla provides an overview of the EOs and notes that it is not clear if or when lease sales will resume.

Only when the Department of the Interior’s reviews are completed will there be some clarity on where lease activity may continue and what royalties may look like.

After being officially sworn in as the 46th president of the United States, Joe Biden wasted no time in pushing his executive privilege to the limit. Biden and Co. are framing his executive orders as necessary first steps in addressing the âfour crisesâ facing our nation. In reality, however, Bidenâs EOs are more attacks on actions taken by the Trump administration than they are substantive policy measures. They are a gesture aimed at the American public, as if to say, âI am the polar opposite of Donald Trump.â
Nonetheless, these executive orders are still harmful and worthy of our concern â especially when they have the potential to hold sway over the education of our children. In one of his first acts as president, Biden signed an executive order to dissolve the 1776 Commission. This commission was assembled by former President Trump during his final months in the White House as a response to the anti-American sentiment and inaccurate rewrites of h
