At his inauguration speech for US President, Biden made a speech that many have complimented. Easy to compliment as it contained all the right gratuitous platitudes. One such bromide: "And I pledge this to you: I will be a President for all Americans. ... I will fight as hard for those who did not support me as for those who did. ... We must end this uncivil war that pits red against blue, rural versus urban, conservative versus liberal. " (emphasis added.) Sounds great, on the surface, provided you don't delve into the speech. Nowhere in the speech does Biden actually propose anything to "end this uncivil war" to promote Biden's promised healing and restoration of unity. It is up to the Biden as the winner to reach-out to those who lost to offer reconciliation. For example, Nancy Pelosi (the Speaker for the US House of Representatives) was pursing an unjust impeachment action against Donald Trump (the former President). If Biden was actually interested in unity and healing he could have provided Presidential leadership and requested that Pelosi drop the partisan impeachment action. Biden did not. Biden has failed his first leadership test to bring healing and unity.
Biden in his inauguration speech stated that he "will be a President for all Americans" (emphasis added). Following the inauguration Biden has gone on a spree of signing Executive Orders. All the "bones" tossed out through the Executive Orders served the radical "left" political agenda. Not one of the "bones" tossed-out supported the political agenda of moderates and/or conservatives. As one example, Biden cancelled the permit for construction of the Keystone Pipeline. Ironically, cancelling the Keystone Pipeline damages Biden's "green" programs as completion of the pipeline would be the environmentally superior method of transporting oil. Biden has failed his second leadership test by purposely snubbing those who did not vote for him.
Biden in his inauguration speech foreshadowed the return of the "Security State" and McCarthyism. Biden ominously stated: "And now, a rise in political extremism, white supremacy, domestic terrorism that we must confront and we will defeat." Biden, then as vice-President to Barrack Obama participated in the illegal spying of the Trump campaign prior to Trump's election as President of the US. After Trump's election, Democrats and some members of the intelligence community continued on with highly questionable activities to "resist" the Trump administration and even pursued some very questionable criminal actions against members of the Trump administration. This includes the unjustified "Mueller Investigation" and the unjustified first impeachment effort.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is one Democratic member of the US House of Representatives. She has been raising the potential to have things like an "enemies" list developed and to propose efforts to retaliate against former members of the Trump administration, such as the “Trump Accountability Project". A Truth and Reconciliation Commission and re-education camps to soon follow? While, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is only one person, she is echoing what other Democrats have been alluding to. I guess, the Democrats are thumbing their nose at Biden's call for healing and unity by pursing divisive hateful tactics against conservatives. Biden has failed his third leadership test by raising the bogyman of "domestic terrorism". Based on Biden's prior use of illegal methods of domestic spying, we may soon seen it re-initiated, if it hasn't been already. Very scary.
