I have said this time and time again, but there are very few politicians that will do the right thing in comparison to the ones that do.
For every one that will refuse a bribe, there are probably ten trying to fight each other to the death to see who will end up getting to take the dirty money. The big problem is when one of those people ends up in such power that nobody can really do anything about them.
Like Joe Biden. You would think that after decades of being crooked that he would at least give some of the crooked time to someone else. Well, it appears that from right on day one that he was doing everything he could to fill the wallet up more and more.
The General Accounting Office is investigating Joe Biden’s use of Executive Order cutting off funding for the border wall. Remember when Democrats claimed that Trump was a dictator?
They lost many court battles because they sued even when they didn’t have a leg to stand on. But, funding does not originate with the presidency unless a state of emergency is declared.
Trump declared the border as a disaster area, Biden simply followed his liberal agenda, which has no force of law.
However, he is not obligated to sign any new contracts that would need additional funding. Trump will have to complete that if her decides to run in 2024.
Politico reported:
On his first day in office, Biden hit pause on billions of dollars set to be spent on his predecessor’s long-touted barrier between the U.S. and Mexico while his administration figured out next steps for the money. Now the Government Accountability Office is launching a review to determine whether the new president broke the law by freezing the money in violation of budget rules designed to keep Congress in control of the cash flow, the federal watchdog confirmed this week.
An unfavorable ruling from GAO would bolster Republicans in branding Biden as a rule-breaker as they blame him for the surge of migrants and unaccompanied children at the southern border. The pause on spending “directly contributed” to that flood of border crossers.
