Expect more of Bidenâs unprecedented executive orders to run into a buzz saw of Trump-appointed judges.
The Apologies Begin
Pop quiz: How can you tell when a liberal Democrat administration is in office? It begins by apologizing to the world for Americaâs imaginary sins.
Exhibit A: Special Climate Envoy John Kerry. While addressing the United Nations Climate Summit on Monday, Kerry told the delegates that he âregrettedâ Americaâs âabsenceâ from the Paris climate accord, and he promised to âdo everything in our power to make up for it.â
The idea that the United States, with just a little over four percent of the worldâs population, must stop our economic activity to save the world from climate change is laughable. Moreover, many of the technological breakthroughs that can mitigate climate change are happening in the U.S.

âEvery agency will place equity at the core of their public engagement, their policy design, and program delivery to ensure that government resources are reaching Americans of color and all marginalized communities â rural, urban, disabled, LGBTQ+, religious minorities, and so many others.â
So said White House Domestic Policy Advisor Susan Rice during a press briefing yesterday, lending further evidence to the Biden administrationâs seemingly pathological fixation on a single word: equity. Not equality. Equity.
And to be clear: Equality and equity arenât the same things. Not even close. The root of the former word is one of the self-evident truths embedded in our Declaration of Independence. It refers to the state of being equal, especially in status, rights, and opportunities. The latter word, however, refers to systems and institutions that are âfairâ and âjust.â
