President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris decided to cosplay as leaders on Monday by giving a briefing on the devastating California wildfires. That’s the thing about pretending, though. It rarely ends well, and things went downhill very quickly.
While sitting at the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office, Biden kept his eyes locked on his script, bragging about giving victims a “one-time payment of $770.” What that is supposed to accomplish wasn’t immediately apparent.
Giving away a one-time payment of $770 is basically meaningless to anyone who lost their home in the wildfires. That might cover a few nights at a hotel, but that’s about it. It certainly won’t be useful in actually recovering from the damage.
But let’s put that aside because this is a matter of priorities. For context, at the end of December, it was reported that the United States had provided $3.4 billion to pay the salaries of Ukrainian bureaucrats and schoolteachers. Not to buy weapons for soldiers on the front line, not to supply ammunition, but to pay government officials living in the safest parts of the country.
So taxpayers are on the hook to pay the salaries of government officials from another country but American disaster victims are only given a pittance of $770 after losing everything. It’s an absurd perversion of priorities that continues to play out in a way that is impossible for the public to ignore.
Why do they keep calling them “wildfires” when several ppl been arrested for arson and the bureaucrats set the table for them?
It becomes a wildfire when wind causes it spread out of control. You’d know that if you finished middle school.
Everything they have touched for the last four years has turned in to a total disaster!
Both Biden and Harris are like an infectious disease that we cannot cure. They are the absolute worst that America has to offer.
Americans are aways last on biden’s list of priorities.
