“Three fires in a new office,” and so it is with Biden, who is about to become the new president of the United States. The first fire is the $1.9 trillion economic revitalization plan launched by Biden on the 15th. Although the Democratic Party holds the majority in the House and Senate, the plan will certainly be passed by Congress, but AFP analysis says: as the Senate is about to hear the Trump impeachment case, so Biden’s ambitious policy of the first 100 days in office overshadowed.
AFP from Biden’s hometown of Wilmington, Delaware (Wilmington) said: Biden said in a speech in his hometown on 15, the United States will return to its former glory. He said, “We didn’t get to this point overnight, and we can’t get out of this quagmire overnight. And we can’t do it as a separate and divided nation. The only way to get this done is for the entire American people to come together.”
AFP commented that Biden said nothing in his 25-minute televised speech about Trump, the impeachment or the violent incident last week in which Trump supporters stormed Congress and ended up killing five people, but instead emphasized the twin crises of the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) epidemic and the sinking economy, which is even more daunting than the challenges he faced as vice president when the Obama administration took office after the financial crisis in 2008.
The incoming president, Joe Biden, promised to open a “new chapter” for America, and sought to have a voice in his key inaugural address to get the American people looking forward again. Meanwhile, Georgia’s newly elected congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene said she will file articles of impeachment against President-elect Biden on Jan. 21. She said, “We cannot allow a man who is willing to sell out America and sell out his office just so his son Hunter can make a buck to sit in the most powerful seat in our country, if not the world.”
U.S. President-elect Joe Biden will be inaugurated on Jan. 20, and authorities have mobilized more than 20,000 heavily armed national soldiers to man Washington. In the past, hundreds of thousands of people often gathered on the lawn of the National Mall to celebrate with the inauguration of a new president, but now security officials are warning that armed and possibly explosive Trump extremist supporters will likely pose a threat to Washington and state capitals over the next week, AFP said. This is the first such warning since the FBI issued a national alert after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States.
