Mail-in Voting Is NOW A Security Concern, Executive Orders Are Cool Again

streetwisepol January 25, 2021 Amazon, bezos, Biden, executive, Joe, order, Uncategorized, Washington Post Comments Off on Mail-in Voting Is NOW A Security Concern, Executive Orders Are Cool Again

I CLEARLY remember the Washington Post running multiple articles about how Donald Trump criticising mail-in voting security was a baseless exercise in fear-mongering. So that’s why when Amazon stated that it opposes mail-in voting for the company’s unionization election, my brain short-circuited for a few seconds.

Both Amazon and The Washington Post are owned by Jeff Bezos. That doesn’t mean he has a hand in every decision or basic operation, still, it’s par for the course for Amazon executives to lack the mental faculties to connect these statements as hypocrisy from the left.

“In a petition filed with the NLRB on Jan. 21, Amazon argued that mail-in voting would decrease turnout and create security concerns in a unionization election at the company’s Bessemer, Alabama warehouse.”

Funny, that sounds precisely like what Trump and other Republicans were saying about the Presidential election. But I guess ensuring election security is MUCH more important for their company than it is for the highest office in the country.

Please picture me rolling my eyes and doing the “jerk-off” motion here.

I’ll just add the left’s self-serving election lie to Joe Biden’s claim that he would not ban fracking and then instantly banning fracking and ending 70,000 jobs. Or admitting there’s no big plan to get the virus under control. The days since the inauguration have been a whirlwind of executive orders and agency actions (17 in total) and dumbass decisions.

I would argue that Joe Biden doesn’t have the mental capacity to prepare that many ideas, but we’re supposed to ignore his cognitive decline and not ask who’s pulling the puppet string for a man who can’t rub two mittens together without assistance.

Here’s a summary list of Joe Biden’s current accomplishments which, incidentally, out number the list of total things he accomplished in his previous four decades in politics.

  • An executive order requiring that people wear masks and maintain social distancing on federal property. It apparently doesn’t apply to Biden and his family.
  • The launch of a “100 Days Masking Challenge” to encourage Americans to wear masks.
  • The reversal of Trump’s decision to remove the U.S. from the World Health Organization. Anthony Fauci will lead the American delegation.
  • An executive order that creates the position of COVID-19 response coordinator and restores the Directorate for Global Health Security and Biodefense, a team in charge of the pandemic response, within the National Security Council.
  • An executive order to extend eviction and foreclosure moratoriums. The moratorium for evictions will be extended until at least March 31.
  • Extended the existing pause on student loan payments and interest for Americans with federal student loans until at least Sept. 30. “These are emergency measures that will help to make sure that no American is put in the place of having to make the decision to pay their student loan payment or put food on the table in the short term and will help to provide some near-term relief,” Brian Deese, the new director of the White House National Economic Council, told The Washington Post.
  • An “instrument” that will allow the U.S. to rejoin the Paris Agreement on climate change within 30 days. Trump officially withdrew the nation from the Paris agreement on Nov. 4.
  • An executive order with the aim of “embedding equity across federal policymaking and rooting out systemic racism and other barriers to opportunity from federal programs and institutions.” This order will also disband the Trump administration’s 1776 Commission.
  • An executive order reversing an order that excluded undocumented immigrants from the Census. The order now requires non-citizens to be included in the Census and the apportionment of congressional representatives.
  • A memorandum directing officials to “preserve and fortify” the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, DACA, for undocumented people who were brought into the country as children.
  • An executive action repealing two proclamations, informally known as the “Muslim ban” but was really a temporary freeze to allow extreme vetting for individuals to enter into the U.S. from countries that were major security concerns. Biden directed the State Department to restart visa processing for individuals from the affected countries. He also asked the agency to develop ways to address the “harm” caused to those who were prevented from coming to the United States because of the ban.
  • An executive order revoking Trump’s immigration enforcement and directing agencies to set immigration policies more “in line” with the Biden administration’s “values and priorities”, halting immigration and releasing all detainees, even if they were being held for crimes.
  • A proclamation that will pause the construction of the border wall with Mexico and determine how to best divert those funds elsewhere. The order includes an “immediate termination” of the national emergency declaration that allowed the Trump administration to redirect funds to the wall.
  • A memorandum to extend a designation allowing Liberians who have been in the United States for a long time to remain. The order would block the deportation of Liberians who have been living in the United States.
  • An executive order directing the government to interpret the Civil Rights Act as prohibiting workplace discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity, in addition to race, color, religion, sex and national origin. This includes removing protections based on gender, like those that were designed to protect women, because men and women are apparently the same.
  • An executive order enacting new ethics rules for government officials. The rules will require executive branch appointees to sign an ethics pledge, barring them from acting in their personal interest.
  • An executive order reversing “regulatory process executive orders” enacted by the Trump administration. Directs OMB director to develop recommendations to modernize regulatory review and reverses Trump’s regulatory approval process.

I’m going to turn off the news and have a glass of wine with lunch. I’ve had enough of the left for today.
