Joe Biden's presidency should have begun as a success story. Biden inherited a good economic situation, benefited from Operation Warp Speed's quick development of a vaccine, and got to see his predecessor make a disgrace of himself with his election-rigging conspiracy theories.

With Jerome Powell promising to keep interest rates around that historically safe level of near-zero, Biden is pumping trillions of dollars into the economy to bail out blue states already benefiting from Donald Trump's own fast and loose hand, teachers' unions happy to hold tens of millions of children hostage, and workers who realize Uncle Sam and Wall Street have greater profit margins than Main Street.
After Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen warned that interest rates would have to rise to prevent the economy from overheating, she quickly walked back her remarks under pressure from her boss, the way all of Biden's more rational advisers are eventually forced to do.
We shouldn't be in a crisis at all, and yet, Biden only emerged on late Wednesday to address one of the crises heading his way.
Biden, formerly a supporter of Israel but always prone to idiotic foreign policy fads, had the proper cue cards in place, offering his "Unwavering support" for Israel's "Right to defend itself." But before Biden left, he gave the game away.
"I'm not supposed to be answering all these questions. I'm supposed to leave," Biden said, returning to the podium perhaps to entertain the free press.
