Joe Biden News

On his first day in the Oval Office, President Joe Biden signed a record 17 executive orders, many of them voiding commonsense policies enacted during the Trump administration.   One of the worst—and most dangerous—was his “Revision of Civil Immigration Enforcement Policies and Priorities.” A more apt title would be “Providing Sanctuary for Criminal Aliens.”  Biden’s short order revoked former President Donald…

The American Recovery Act, the Biden administration’s $1.9 trillion response to the COVID-19 pandemic, includes a $40 billion down payment on the president’s plan to “build on Obamacare.” The bill’s expansion of Obamacare—also known as the Affordable Care Act—has nothing to do with the pandemic, would do little to increase health insurance coverage, and may create…

CNN host Brian Stelter asked a big question on his Sunday show: “What’s the future of fact-checking now that [Donald] Trump is out of office?” He proclaimed it was “fraught with complexity, and allegations of bias and shouts of false equivalence.” This is not complex. In 2016, a Rasmussen poll found that only 29% of…

Appearing at a friendly CNN town hall event this week, President Joe Biden dropped a string of untruths on issues both large and small. One of the president’s most egregious falsehoods was the claim that “we didn’t have [the vaccine] when we came into office.” The first shot was administered back on Dec. 14, 2020….

The liberal-Democrat media celebrated Valentine’s Day a traditional way: gushy tributes to the new first lady. On Feb. 12, Jill Biden tweeted on her @FLOTUS Twitter account a photo of herself, with a scrunchie in her hair, at a Washington, D.C., bakery picking up “Valentine’s treats for the weekend.” “Don’t tell Joe,” she joked. Glamour…

The border crisis isn’t coming; it’s already here. It is here because the left is actively encouraging, incentivizing, and facilitating it. Team Biden, while on the campaign trail and now firmly ensconced in the White House, put out the message loud and clear to those south of the border: Come over illegally, and we will release you,…

When setting goals, it’s important not to lower the bar. Yet that’s exactly what the Biden administration has done with school reopenings. When asked last week about President Joe Biden’s “100-day plan” for reopening schools, press secretary Jen Psaki said, “His goal that he set is to have the majority of schools, so more than 50%, open by Day…

Three actions by the Biden administration could put nearly 10 million American jobs at risk, says Alfredo Ortiz, president and CEO of the Job Creators Network.  Ortiz joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss the economic implications of the Biden White House’s canceling the Keystone XL oil pipeline, rejoining the Paris Agreement on climate change,…

During the early weeks of his presidency, Joe Biden has embraced the radical elements of his party and instituted divisive and wholly partisan policy changes. He has abandoned solidarity and fellowship in favor of division and factionalism. Mere hours after championing “unity” and pledging to “be a president for all Americans” in his inaugural address,…

On Day One of his presidency, President Joe Biden started to reverse course on U.S. energy and environmental policy with a slew of executive orders. His decisions to reenter the Paris Agreement and cancel the Keystone XL pipeline received much attention. But his order telling his agencies to review the Trump administration’s fuel economy mandates…

Editor's note: The Daily Signal's audience isn't happy with President Joe Biden's torpedoing of his predecessor's 1776 Commission, which is dedicated to returning knowledge of U.S. history and love of country to our schools. Here's a sampling of your responses to our coverage at [email protected].—Ken McIntyre Dear Daily Signal: I read with dismay Mike Gonzalez's…

President Joe Biden and his press secretary, Jen Psaki, have assured us he is a “devout Catholic” who “attends church regularly.” The question is not new but should be asked again and a credible answer demanded. How can one be devout about one’s faith and not comport with Scripture and the teachings of the Catholic Church? As…

President Joe Biden focused on the theme of unity in his inaugural address. “Today, on this January day, my whole soul is in this: bringing America together, uniting our people, and uniting our nation,” he said. It sounds so nice. But only a career politician can be this disingenuous and speak the words as if…

For four years, we were informed by our establishment media that President Donald Trump’s behavior was “not normal.” The abnormality of Trump’s behavior became a near rallying cry for the self-appointed heroes of journalism, who spent every waking hour poring over his bizarre tweets and his bloviating self-absorption. The media dedicated themselves to preventing Trump’s…
