Read More“Biden and his administration find themselves in the midst of an unprecedented pandemic, facing an influx of refugees from a country rife with political turmoil, and situated in a political landscape so polarized that one group has compared the actions at the border to chattel slavery, while on the other extreme, Tucker Carlson of Fox News accused Biden of purposefully attempting to change racial demographics in the U.S. through immigration.”
Read More“President Biden’s rise in disapproval has been driven primarily by a drop in support among independent voters. 62% of independent voters in Iowa disapprove of the president, a troubling shift for a president who won the 2020 election by winning over moderate voters. Biden’s 32% approval rating is lower than both Obama and Trump’s lowest approvals in the state during their presidencies.”

He has touted that this cabinet will be one of the “most diverse in American history.” However, some Progressives are casting doubt on his choices so far.”
Read More“It’s highly unlikely that we will see any sort of acknowledgement from the Trump Administration on Biden winning the presidency without claims that the election was rigged. Nonetheless, both Biden and Trump’s timelines will be forced to collide on January 20th as the constitutional process for electing a president states in its 20th Amendment that the candidate who receives the most electoral votes will become President of the United States at noon on January 20th.
