  1. President Trump is not transferring the Presidency to Biden and his globalist handlers.
    Anyone who believes that Biden is about to be President of the United States is not paying attention, or is in denial of the dangerous world that surrounds them.
    Buckle up ladies and gentlemen, because Trump is about to start cleaning this mess up.

    • I just watched a broadcast by the Ukrainian government. The have levied accusations against the whole Biden family, of theft of Ukrainian monies, money laundering and corruption. See Epoch Times.
      It’s getting interesting indeed.

    • Well said Alan.
      President Trump has signed the insurrection act but the leaders in the Pentagon won’t go along with it unless we go up against China.

  2. “White House Climate Czar Gina McCarthy: Obama’s head of the EPA and now president of National Resources Defense Council.”
    While in the EPA, her and North were the driving influence in blocking Pebble. The NRDC conned the Bristol Bay Native Corp to fight against Pebble.
    The same political pressure against Pebble was done by Murkowski and Sullivan, and forced the ACoE to deny Pebble’s permit.
    To all the people applauding this result … You think you won a victory for the environment, but the environment can be protected only when America can afford the luxury.
    Biden is anti-oil, anti-mining, and anti-industry. Biden’s whole cabinet is socialist, communist, anti-democracy America haters.
    When America’s economy tanks, there will be a desperate rush to revive oil, mining, and industry, at a time when America may not be able to afford the luxury of environmental protections.
    The Environazis may have set America up for a new round of “Love Canals” and “Three Mile Islands”.

  3. Looks like he’s bringing back all the players from the swamp. Swamp rats one and all. Even John Vietnam traitor Kerry gets a nod. It’s Obama 3.0 with a new player and also the wicked witch of the West in Paris going to be there. Expect socialism to prevail and democracy as we know it is gone. The border will be open as Wyatt as Paris Hilton’s thighs. Illegal Drugs available for the cheap. It’s a great day for communists and drug abusers.

  4. John Effing Kerry back in the saddle, with his 43 Purple Hearts, 174 cases of Heinz ketchup, 16 cases of hairspray and an electric car. Some people never go away.

  5. The democrat plan is to undo everything Trump did and finish destroying our election system. I believe our votes will never matter again and Alaska is about to be screwed.

  6. They’ve rounded up “the usual suspects”. This biden* administration will be the scariest clown car ever.

    *biden, usurper of the 2020 US presidential election.
