Joe Biden campaigned on the response to COVID-19. Every time he spoke of it, he offered criticism of the way Trump was handling it and insisted that he could do better for the American people. He is singing a very different tune now.

ANTIFA celebrated President Joe Biden's inauguration by vandalizing and rioting in Seattle, WA, and Portland, OR. They do not care who is in charge in D.C.
