Congressman: 100 Biden failures in 1st 100 days

FPI / April 29, 2021

In 100 days "we’ve gone from America First to America Last" under Joe Biden, Kentucky Republican Rep. James Comer noted even as Democrat propagandists have likened the advent of Team Biden as the second coming of FDR.

“He promised unity but has delivered partisanship. He failed to fully reopen schools for America’s public school students but has opened our borders to illegal immigrants. He has killed thousands of American jobs through crushing regulations while reviving the radical Green New Deal and other extreme climate policies,” Comer said.
