Biden's First-Day-In-Office Plan Is A Betrayal Of Working-Class Americans

Since then in his work to unite the modern Democratic Party, his direction has shifted hard to the left, earning praise from proud socialist Bernie Sander, who reiterated Wednesday, "The reason I think Biden has a chance to be the most progressive president since FDR is that is exactly what Joe Biden said to me."

Still, just last week The New York Times' David Brooks predicted day one of a Biden presidency would bring soothing quiet and an end to the divisive class hate his friends and colleagues have hurled down on powerless Americans for years.

What's missing - completely and utterly - from his plan is a single thing that helps the American working class he's counting on to win.

Shortly after President Trump withdrew the United States from the World Health Organization for corrupt subservience to China's communist dictator, its active dampening of Taiwanese coronavirus warnings, and its repeat and systemic failings, Biden promised to rejoin on day one of his presidency.

Hobbling American industry is just the beginning of President Biden's "Very busy!" first day in the Oval.

On Monday, Biden pledged to "End the 'Muslim ban' on day one- day one," referring to the administration's extra scrutiny on immigration from countries with high rates of anti-Western terrorism or that are run by anti-American dictators, specifically Iraq, Iran, Sudan, Yemen, Libya, Nigeria, Somalia, Eritrea, Kyrgyzstan, Myanmar, Tanzania and North Korea.

For years Biden was a centrist voice in a Democratic Party drifting further leftward each day.
