    ^ And nobody has mentioned that he nominated 2 female generals - at the occasion of International Women Day. (nothing like this had his predecessor done):

    Biden Endorses Female Generals Whose Promotions Were Delayed Over Fears of Trump’s Reaction

    President Joe Biden has nominated two female generals to elite, four-star commands, the Defense Department announced, months after their Pentagon bosses had agreed on their promotions but held them back out of fears that Trump would reject the officers because they were women.

    House passes $1.9 trillion Covid relief bill, sends to Biden



    • House Democrats passed a $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill on Wednesday, sending one of the biggest stimulus plans in U.S. history to President Joe Biden’s desk.


    Biden's 50-day mark to coincide with relief bill win


    • Beyond policy matters, Biden’s first 50 days have been marked by a return to normalcy and order at the White House. There are no rogue tweets in the middle of the night from the president’s account and far fewer administration leaks to the media. The press secretary holds regular weekday briefings and Biden rarely strays from the script when he appears in public, often doing so in controlled environments.


    Up next……….


    • Watched a little of President Biden’s Secretary of Transportation on the news the other day. Of course Secretary Pete was talking about infrastructure and an Infrastructure Bill.


    Pete Buttigieg on Climate Change, Electric Vehicles, and the New DOT


    • maybe it'll be the U.S. Citizenship Act…………


    President Biden Sends Immigration Bill to Congress

    Little extra.

    Though it's not 1/10th as interesting as the Trump era, it is good to see that the US is getting back to 'normal'.

    ^There was also this tidbit,………

    A $60 billion surprise in the Covid relief bill: Tax hikes

    Democrats are getting an early start on their tax-increase agenda.

    They’ve tucked a trio of little-noticed tax hikes on the wealthy and big corporations into their coronavirus relief package that together are worth $60 billion.

    Did the "same page" also mention that the good man could not immediately recall the name of his new Defence Secretary?

    (I did not dare to place here the audio of the speech... but it's easy to find - before it will be disappeared)

    He won't get that. You'll probably need to explain it to him.

    Now you know why the GOP opposed it.

    He still won't get it (and will pretend he doesn't even if he did).

    Please be so kind and explain it to him (using a language that can be found in Webster...)

    Joe Biden Signs $1.9 Trillion COVID-19 Relief Bill

    President Joe Biden signed a COVID-19 relief package worth nearly $1.9 trillion into law on Thursday. The legislation includes $1,400 direct payments, a $300 weekly federal unemployment benefit until September, additional money for parents, funding for a national vaccination program, and billions of dollars for state and local governments and reopening schools.

    “This historic legislation is about rebuilding the backbone of this country and giving people in this nation — working people, middle class folks, the people who build the country — a fighting chance,” Biden said before signing the bill.

    Wait, what, where is the overly-large signature? The posturing and preening?

    The impromptu and incomprehensible ranting and rambling 'press conference'? The associated airing of grievances?

    No, this isn't normal, it won't do at all.
