He has taken action on the pipeline. He has bolstered Cybersecurity for infrastructure, and made a solution that ships can be used to transport oil in absence of a working pipeline. Funny thing, if Trump had made the suggestion about shipping, Dems would be against it, and R's would be for it. But since Biden made that, Dems are for it and R's against it.
It's a polarized world out there, and my comment applies to both sides.
Regarding Israel, he succinctly stated Israel's right to defend themselves, and has sent diplomats to the region to help with negotiations. No POTUS would be able to "solve" this one, that is up to Israel and the Palestinians, but he''s responding with support for Israel and a call for cooler heads.
Not sure your premise has any accurate assumptions in it.
I saw a video where at the end of his mini speech and started to walk away and someone asked him a question he replied, "I am NOT supposed to answer questions".
The President of the United States is "not supposed to answer questions"?
We know WHY. His handlers so NOT want him to screw up, AGAIN!
Imagine how the same media would have reacted if Trump had said that.
Trump answered MORE questions the 1st time he spoke and the media was there then joe has so during his ENTIRE time as president.
A cyberattack on a private company (who is responsible for their own systems, not the government) led to risk. Idiot people panicking and hoarding dozens and dozens of gallons of gas for no reason caused a shortage. I don't see great economic risk of a significant event, and vaccine distributions have exceeded expectations.
I thought we supported Private business and 0 government intrusion into practices. Add in Citizens United and we have a Freedom Caucus wet dream correct?

"He has taken action on the pipeline. He has bolstered Cybersecurity for infrastructure, REALLY"! When?
The dems NEVER take responsibility for their OWN actions and NON-actions!
"The Biden administration is struggling to find an effective, robust counter to the cyberattackers who have repeatedly caught the U.S. flat-footed and disrupted Americans’ lives from the gas pump to the police station. Cybersecurity leadership selected by President Biden last month remains uninstalled, and a federal cyber agency said Tuesday that it does not yet have the information it needs to prevent further attacks such as the one that hit a major fuel pipeline last week."
"Alongside issues with information flow, the Biden administration is beleaguered with personnel problems. Top cybersecurity posts have stalled in the Senate confirmation process. Mr. Portman said senators are waiting for paperwork to be finalized for Mr. Biden’s nominee for the nation’s first national cyber director, John C. Inglis, who previously served as deputy director of the National Security Agency.
The nomination of Jen Easterly, another former NSA official, to run CISA also is pending."
"Senate Democrats are mum about the holdup."
As the administration works to overhaul cybersecurity policy, victims of cyberattacks are stacking up across sectors that affect Americans’ day-to-day lives. In March, Buffalo Public Schools canceled classes for a day because of a “cybersecurity outage” reported to be a ransomware attack."
"The full list of cyberintrusions in recent months is long and not limited to ransomware. Last month, CISA warned that hackers had breached Pulse Connect Secure products in government agencies, the private sector and critical infrastructure starting at least as far back as June.
Early indications suggest that five federal agencies were compromised in that hack,"
How do you counter a private corporation leaving outdated, un-secure software open to the internet? How do you MAKE a corporation update its computers on 30-40-year-old infrastructure. How do you force action without congressional help or overstepping constitutional public/private lines?
When you guys figure that one out then we might get somewhere.
I don't think Presidents have the power many here seem to think a President has over private industry.
