The soon-to-expire Biden administration is behaving as if an invading foreign power is about to take power and the house must be burned down to prevent the “invaders” from succeeding.
In recent weeks, the cynicism meter has moved up several notches due to the decisions of the outgoing president and others in his administration. First came the graces of Hunter Bidenand then about 1,500 others, including a former Pennsylvania judge who used his private prison system to lock up young people and pocket the profits. Pennsylvania’s Democratic Governor Josh Shapiro ripped the pardon, saying Biden was “absolutely wrong” in what has been called a “kids for cash” scandal.
Among the other questionable pardons and clemency was one that Biden issued to Rita Crundwell, the first comptroller of Dixon, Illinois. Crundwell was sentenced to nearly 20 years in prison in 2013 for stealing nearly $54 million from the city of 15,000 over 20 years. It is said to have been the largest municipal fraud in American history. Crundwell, now 71, admitted to embezzling from the city and using the stolen money to support a lavish lifestyle. According to WTTW, officials have recovered only $40 million of the stolen city money from court settlements, the work of accountants and the proceeds from the liquidation of Crundwell’s assets.
Meet Donald TRUMP’s Cabinet: WHO HAS BEEN THE PRESIDENT-ELECT SO FAR?
Biden has engaged in a fire sale of steel barriers ordered during the previous Trump administration to build a wall and secure the southern border. These were materials that were paid for with tax money. It’s part of what appears to be a cynical plan to frustrate the new Trump team and make their border control job more difficult. I cannot remember such a transition in our history.
Then the drones came. The government claims they do not come from U.S. adversaries and do not pose a threat to public safety. They also claim to know nothing about them. If they know nothing, how can they claim that they are not from foreign entities and will not harm people?
BERNIE SANDERS BELIEVES HUNTER BIDEN PARDON IS CREATING A ‘DANGEROUS’ PRECEDENT
The drones have been seen for weeks over New Jersey and New York and recently also over California and Nevada. A woman called into a D.C. talk show and said she and her daughter saw 30 drones flying over Southern Maryland. Former Republican Governor of Maryland Larry Hogan has posted photos of what he claims are drones flying over his home in the DC suburbs. Because there is no credible information coming from the Biden administrationconspiracy theorists are in full swing, along with accusations of a cover-up.
While Democratic New York Mayor Eric Adams says he will cooperate with the new Trump administration in illegally removing migrants from the country, even from his “sanctuary city.” Other Democratic mayors and governors are promising to oppose the deportation of even those who have committed crimes, and to “Trump-proof” their cities and states.

Incoming “border czar” Tom Homan has promised to send teams of agents to crack down on cities and states controlled by Democratic politicians and remove migrants. An October Fox News poll shows they have the support of an overwhelming majority of Americans.

It doesn’t seem to matter for the Biden administration, which still has five weeks to run. They act as if Vice President Kamala Harrisand not Trump, won the election and voters can be ignored.
The second Trump administration will have a lot of cleaning up to do. If their promised policies prove to work, ensure public approval remains high as they and a Republican majority in Congress attempt to undo the damage caused by the Biden administration.
