A Disaster For Every Month: The Worst Scandals, Abuses, And Embarrassments Of Joe Biden’s Second Year In Office

The first year of Joe Biden’s presidency prolifically delivered examples of corruption and incompetence, and his second year in office — which drew to a close on Thursday — has been no different.

The Federalist received a record number of donations last year “A Scandal For Every Month: The Biggest Botches, Failures, And Mess-Ups Of Joe Biden’s First 12 Months In Office.” I expressed my hope that the White House would have fewer disasters in 2022 at the end of the piece. Unfortunately, for the country, the year No. The roundup from year No. 2 is just as dire.

January: Biden compares Filibuster Defenders and Historical Racists

Last year’s list concluded with a bonus item for January 2022: Biden comparing his agenda’s critics — which include Democrat Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona — to former Alabama Gov. George Wallace, Confederate leader Jefferson Davis.

In a Jan. 11 speech urging the U.S. Senate to ditch filibuster rules in order to pass his radical and unconstitutional federalization of election laws, Biden asked, “Do you want to be the side of Dr. King or George Wallace? Do you want to be the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?”

He has to do something.”

“Are you effectively giving Putin permission to make a small incursion into the country?” A reporter asked. Biden’s answer: “That’s how it did sound like, didn’t it?”

Biden foolishly called for the Russia-Ukraine war a month ago regime change Russia before reversing course, and insisting that he didn’t do such things. The United States had sent out $68 billion in aid for Ukraine by November 2022. Biden was the recipient. requesting Another $37.7 Billion will be added to bring the total aid up to 12 figures.

March: Hunter Biden Corruption Scandal Resurfaces as NYT Admits Laptop’s Legitimacy

Eighteen months after the New York Post reported on a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden that contained incriminating emails about his shady foreign business deals — a bombshell that was censored in the lead-up to the 2020 presidential election — The New York Times finally, quietly admitted The laptop was legalized in March. As The Federalist’s Senior Legal Correspondent Margot Cleveland noted at the time, conceding the laptop’s authenticity also meant conceding that the numerous scandals contained in the laptop’s trove of documents were real.
