However Schedule F was used to reclassify the positions tha Trump's appointees would occupy, and vacate them so that his appointees could take their place. Thus DOJ, DHS, NSA, DOD are chock full of Trump appointees now protected civil servants.
My complaint with Biden, is that he could have used the same EO, to replace Trump's appoiintees, but instead he tied a hand behind his back and revoked Trump's EO.
What a fool, or has he been advised by a Trump advocate or a compromiser.
The next Republican president can just as easily restore Schedule F by an EO>
I really don't think most Americans can comprehend what the the right wing oligarchy is about. Since most Americans, especially the right wing type, have never gone hungry or without healthcare or shelter, a day in their life thanks to FDR, who they hate! It is pretty obvious to me that Biden and Garland did not prosecute the GOP traitors, why would they replace the chosen GOP traitors? As you know, Biden already gave the GOP the house and the supreme Court. I suspect the GOP will have another October surprise right before the next presidential election. And the elected GOP president will pardon Biden, or not have his attorney general prosecute Biden. Trying to get the GOP Cult to understand why Medicare shouldn't have to pay so much money for drugs shouldn't be so hard. If Trump did it, they would all get on board. Religion and party before country, is not very patriotic to the country.
I agree with you, except in that Biden gave the GOP congress and the Supreme Court.
The voters gave the Republicans the House, not Biden, and the Senate as well, and the Senate did the biding of the oligarchs by stacking the supreme court with religious fascists, and it was Trump that nominated them to a Republican control senate.
On the other hand the Democrats in the Senate did nothing to stop them, like Tuberville is doing to the Dept of Defense.
Then again I fault the Democrats for being spineless wooses, they still SEEM to live on the fantasy of compromise and bipartisan ship, as if a prize fighter went into the ring with one armed tied behind his back.
My only question is cowardliness, complicity or compromised.
Forget not that Biden had a chance to put Democrats in control of the USPS, but choose a Republican, and has failed to fill the two vacancies that have existed since December 2022
Purdue Pharma was not at all hesitant to hire Guiliani as an attorney to fight the law suit against them for promoting and selling oxycotin, knowing full well it was addictive and deadly.
However Guiliana called his patron Trump, then President, and he direct the DOJ, to drop the charges in favor of a lesser misdemeanor with only a fine and no admission of gult.
Trump has set precedents, like directing the DOJ to follow his orders, to appointing Acting this or that to positions, and Biden won't even follow those precedents he is willing to turn this country over to racist, religious, homophobic,, misogynistic fascists,
For what his legacy, to prove to America 40% of which could care less, that he was a even handed and an ameliorator. If the Republicans take the government again, Biden will become a non entity in their history books and media., except maybe a villain.
That is if he and all "liberals" survive the purge. Trump has already promised revenge, and the m effer is not talking though his sleeve either, he is if nothing else an insecure, narcisst that can only feel safe if he exacts revenge, for damaging his insecurity and public image.
Why not prosecuting about 300 GOP Representatives for sedition, that allowed them to run and get reelected and it also turned a lot of leftists against Biden but not for Trump. I would be Biden's biggest fan if he would have prosecuted the insurrectionist who were responsible for the coup, not just the little guys. By giving the GOP control of the Congress, who are now threatening to bankrupt the country, again. If the Democrats were in charge of the Congress, more supreme Court justices could have been added ,and the supreme Court could have been taken back from the right wing lunatics. Biden lost a lot of future voters for the Democrats.
I share your frustrations; The Democrats controlled congress when Obama was president
The Democrats initially controlled Congress during the Obama administration, but the Republicans would win the House and Senate in 2010. Obama came into office in 2009 with a supermajority in the U.S. House and Senate and set about passing his agenda including his reform of the health care industry.
However, the Senate supermajority only lasted for a period of 72 working days while the Senate was actually in session. . He did not take advantage of this majority, except to
congress when Obama was in charge and as you recall Mitch would not approve Garland as an associate justice of SCOTUS, and just as well,, if he had then liberals would have been very upset with Obama appointing and ultra conservative (Marrick Garland) to the Supreme Court
I can't think of anything that Obama achieved in his eight years, not even for American Descendants of Slaves, Which he wasn't. His father was a Kenyan and his mother an American Descendant of slave owners.
In the 2010 midterm elections, the Republican Party won the majority in the House of Representatives. While the Democrats kept their Senate majority, it was reduced from the previous Congress.
What I am saying is that Biden did no give control of Congress to the Republicans, it actually held on to the Senate, but without a 60 vote majority to overcome the filibuster, and for that I blame Harry Reid and Chuck Schumer because both could have retired the filibuster and didn't.
Then came the Trump wave in 2016. A "red wave" was expected (by the effin media) in 2020, and it didn't materialize because the public was fed up with crooked, perverted Trump, and as you know it isn't over, because the Republicans have passed voter suppression and voter negation laws meant to make Trump president again, and to disenfranchise the Democratic base. And Biden and Trump's DOJ sits there like a stone wall. Doing nothing.
Yep, it is frustrating all right. Ignorance is bliss until it isn't, then it is too late. You are right though, the Democrats had the opportunity to initiate single-payer or Medicare for all or socialized healthcare for all and failed to do so also. So many failures, it is hard to keep track.
And then there the likes of Sen Menendez of NJ. The man is corrupt and is being investigated, he is also PhRMA's slave in the Senate. PhRMA has been his biggest megadonor.
Problem is money and the idea that money is speech, and corporations are people.
