Biden May Be Gearing Up To Become A Dictator
Democrats have already made it clear that they will stop at nothing – nothing – to prevent Donald Trump from winning in November
So, we aren’t surprised to read reports that President Joe Biden might declare a “climate emergency” this year in hopes that it gooses his reelection odds.
Never mind that such a declaration would put the U.S. right on the path to a Venezuela-style future.
Late last week, Bloomberg reported that “White House officials are weighing whether to declare a national climate emergency several months out from the 2024 election.”
Bloomberg goes on to report that:
White House advisers are divided over the idea of declaring a climate emergency, with some saying it wouldn’t provide Biden with enough newfound authority to make substantial changes, the people said.
Others, however, argue such an announcement would galvanize climate-minded voters.
Read that again. Inside the White House, the only reason being given for not declaring an emergency is that it wouldn’t give Biden enough dictatorial powers.
That’s a stunning admission from an administration that is supposedly devoted to “protecting democracy.”
Let’s leave aside the entirely fatuous notion that there is anything even remotely constituting a climate “emergency.”
What would be the basis for such a declaration? The number of hurricanes, fires, floods? None of these has been trending upward.
Death rates from natural disasters are a tiny fraction of what they were 60 years ago, and lower than they were 20 years ago. Food production is way up.
But Biden has already used the “climate crisis” as an excuse to impose a draconian electric vehicle mandate on the country, attack a host of household appliances, pour billions into “clean energy” scams, and more.
As Bloomberg notes, declaring a climate emergency “could enable the president to halt or limit crude exports for at least a year at a time, suspend offshore drilling, and throttle the movement of oil and gas on pipelines, ships, and trains.”
Apparently, all that is not enough “newfound authority” for Biden’s minions.
As we just learned from the three-year COVID national emergency, the left will eagerly use a climate emergency declaration to strip Americans of basic rights.
Whatever you think of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., he is one of the few who has been outspoken about the dangers the COVID precedent set.
“We’ve now established a precedent in this country – they suspended the First Amendment: religion; freedom of association when they did the lockdowns,” he told Fox News.
“[They restricted] freedom of speech. They banned jury trials against vaccine companies – that’s [a violation of] the Seventh Amendment. They abolished property rights [which violates the] Fifth Amendment [when] they closed 3.3 million businesses with no due process, no just compensation, although there was no pandemic exception in the United States Constitution.”
Way back in 1973, a Senate report noted that emergency declarations give the president the ability to:
“seize property; organize and control the means of production; seize commodities; assign military forces abroad; institute martial law; seize and control all transportation and communication; regulate the operation of private enterprise; restrict travel; and, in a plethora of particular ways, control the lives of all American citizens.”
Three years after that report came out, Congress passed a law designed to put some guardrails around these powers.
But COVID showed how little these guardrails mean when Democrats are in charge. And Biden has already shown that he couldn’t give a hoot about legal or constitutional limits to his authority – especially when he thinks it will help his reelection chances.
Just look at the repeated attempts to undermine the Constitution with his student loan bailouts.
Declaring a climate emergency would give Biden the ability to control anything that uses energy – which means literally all human activity – in the name of fighting this ’emergency’.
If Biden were to declare a “climate emergency” and if – God forbid – it helps him win reelection, there would be little hope for the future of this nation.

Does anybody pay attention, Biden can barely walk and will soon be unable to read. HE HAS DEMENTIA, HE DOES NOTHING. Who is behind the curtain is the question that should be asked and addressed.

The multi headed hydra behind Biden cannot be easily eliminated even if Trump is re-elected President. I compare them to metastasized cancer. They exist globally and feed on fear. Be fearless.

The Dummy became a dictator in January 2021. You’re a bit behind the times. The US congress is fully supporting his dictatorship by sucking up to the WEF, WHO, big pharma and gates.

oh please …
not long ago the same claim was made about bush, clinton, obama, trump ……….
besides the ‘president’ has only the power that is given to him by his master, so what difference does it make who is ‘elected’, its only for show so you can make believe there are two parties that are opposed to each other which gives legitimacy to the puppet show, nothing more
the die has been cast

If everyone is trying to escape a hurricane or something because
of ‘climate change’ how will they quick charge their electric cars to
escape if the power goes out from the storm? They don’t seem
to be selling them with portable fusion reactors.
How does fixing student loan debt undermine the constitution?
Just wondering. You’d think it would help boost the economy
when there’s 43 million people in debt. If I had extra money
I’d be investing more in small businesses. I don’t want
to give the money to the gov so they can make more bioweapons
or money launder it into foreign weapon stocks, or enslave us
with pcr tests and AI.
The loans are predatory and have been mismanaged for years.
Biden was the one who got rid of bankruptcy for student loans.
Then they let the cost of college outpace inflation 7x for 30 years.
Many people who went to trade schools took out these loans too.
Just another way to try to divide us?
