Joe Biden was sworn in as president and took the White House on the 20th. He said Trump left me a “very kind” letter and took down the 1776 Commission page on the White House website, which was designed to teach American history from a patriotic perspective.
Before Biden’s inauguration, there were several reasons for the gun-buying boom across the United States.
The entire inauguration process was relatively quiet, with only the Supreme Court declaring a bomb threat, which was ultimately not found. At present, Washington, D.C. has not yet been lifted from military status.
The Chinese Communist Party has simultaneously announced sanctions against Pompeo and 28 other friendly Trump officials, using Biden’s inauguration to embolden them. Wall Street bigwig Schwarzman said the Biden Administration will soften its attitude toward the Chinese Communist Party.

Biden, sitting behind the Oval Office fortitude table, said he would not reveal the contents of the letter out of respect for Donald Trump.
“The president wrote a very kind (very generous) letter,” Biden said.
“Because it’s private, I’m not going to talk about it (the contents of the letter) until I talk to him.” He said.
The Resolute desk, a desk made in the 19th century and placed in the Oval Office of the White House, has been used as a desk by U.S. presidents many times.
One of the traditions of Presidential Inauguration Day is for the outgoing president to write a letter to his successor expressing his best wishes and advice.
Biden signed three executive orders in front of the cameras, including an executive order requiring the wearing of masks across federal industry, an executive order ensuring racial equality, and an executive order rejoining the Paris Climate Accord.
Biden plans to sign 17 executive orders in his first few hours as president.
Biden Deletes Patriotism 1776 Commission Page from White House Website
On his first day in office (Jan. 20), Joe Biden removed former President Trump’s “1776 Commission” page from the White House website, an educational initiative designed to teach American history from a patriotic perspective.
The 1776 Commission was first announced last September to clarify the critical portrayal of early American history in the New York Times’ “1619 Project” and to put an end to the notion that American history is based on “irredeemable and (existential) systemic racism. . The New York Times’ “1619 Project” has been criticized by the historical community, but some radical American schools have adopted the 1619 Project as part of their teaching.
Biden was sworn in as the 46th president of the United States on Wednesday, and as part of his first day of executive orders, Biden plans to revoke the commission. The White House website had taken down the 1776 Commission’s introductory page around 12:00 p.m. Wednesday, but it can still be found on the President Trump archives page.
In a press release on Wednesday, the Biden-Herakinli transition team said the 1776 Commission is “an attempt to erase the history of racial injustice in America.
In addition, Biden’s executive order is poised to reverse some of the Trump-era policies that previously restricted federal agencies, contractors and grantees from conducting so-called “diversity and inclusion” racial training content.
Last September, the Trump Administration ordered federal agencies to stop providing such training to federal employees. Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight” program interviewed researcher Chris Rufo in August, who provided documents showing that at the U.S. Sandia National Laboratories, a major nuclear lab, such training is about forcing white male executives to accept “white (inappropriate) privilege.
Other U.S. institutions large and small may be adopting similar racial training programs, he said.
The Biden administration also directed Wednesday that each federal agency conduct an assessment and review of the state of equity within its agency and deliver an action plan within 200 days to address barriers to unequal opportunity in agency policies and programs.
The 1776 Commission released a public report just two days before Biden’s inauguration (on the 18th) and during Trump’s term. The report warns that modern political movements are in danger of departing from America’s founding principles, noting that many historical movements have succeeded because they helped uphold America’s founding principles, rather than departing from them.
The report calls for a “national renewal” Education that will teach future American citizens the basic principles and character necessary to live out those principles. According to the authors, teaching patriotism does not mean ignoring the nation’s past shortcomings, but rather looking at history with a clear and healthy attitude of reverence and love.
The report warns that U.S. colleges and universities are doing just the opposite, having become “hotbeds of anti-Americanism, defamation of America and shielding of authentic information” with the intention of “manipulating views rather than educating minds.
The report singles out historian Howard Zinn and New York Times reporter Nikole Sheri Hannah-Jones’ 1619 Project as presenting a distorted version of American history to young readers and preventing students from seeing the humanity, kindness and benevolence of American historical figures.
The report reads, “American historical revisionism tramples on honest scholarship and historical truth, shames Americans by emphasizing only the sins of their ancestors, and promotes systemic racism that can only be eliminated through more discrimination. It is an ideology designed to manipulate views rather than educate minds.”
Biden in White House, Wall Street bigwig: U.S. to soften toward Communist China
Stephen Schwarzman, chairman of Blackstone Group, said on Sunday that the new U.S. administration will “soften” its approach to China, which is expected to ease the tense standoff between the two sides.
Reuters reported that Schwarzman, one of Trump’s biggest Wall Street backers during his re-election campaign, participated in a financial forum in Hong Kong on Tuesday. There is really a big overlap of interests between these countries and global interests,” said Schwarzman. I expect tensions to ease a lot.”

Trump, who is leaving office, reportedly completed his final executive order on China in his last week in office, including assessing the security risks of Chinese Drones and requiring U.S. investors to completely drop stocks in 44 Chinese companies involved in the Communist Party’s military.
The report noted that investors expect the Biden administration to be clearer on the rules, but are not hopeful for substantial changes in the relationship
According to Schwarzman’s autobiography published in 2019, Schwarzman served as chairman of the Trump Strategy and Policy Forum and participated in the U.S.-China trade dialogue.
