With the conclusion of the first year of the Biden Administration, White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain sought to end on a high, or at least higher, note by retweeting a column saying that 2021 was not “all bad.” It was like bragging that a first date told you that the evening could have been worse. However, what really stood out in the column by Albert Hunt was the key rationale: the first year was “scandal free.” Calling 2021 “scandal free” is not merely an example of blinkered commentary, it is an exercise of willful blindness.

the demSM completely ignored the ashley biden diary story, hunter's laptop, and biden family influence-peddling, among others.

What about that Afghanistan exit?


Maybe not a "scandal" but definitely a flub on their part.

Let's go Brandon! In all seriousness I will give him credit where credit is due... He did recently give his no more lockdowns speech after omicron started to flare up and I respect that. We'll see how long he sticks to it with pressure from the Reddit lefties pushing at him to do what they do best... Be Karens.

He also didn't instantly wipe away student loan debt like he said he might do during his campaign. I suspect it will happen eventually but hey for now we are good. We are society where everybody wants something for nothing after all.

On the minus side is all the continuous overspending and quantitative easing and stimulus which many on the right support because they like their everything asset bubble, and of course the handling of Afghanistan, the flying in of immigrants and the handling of the border, but that's a swamp/globalist issue and the parasites that run things like the world bank are pushing melting pot immigration policy on every nation, the vaccine mandates (which so far the courts have thrown out) and various other things I'll save for another time.

The main thing I'm happy about... So far we've avoided many of the dictatorial covid policies implemented in other countries like vaccine passports, continued lockdowns, and other ridiculous crap. People who support more freedom so far have won the battle... We shall see how the war goes.

So true!

And, if the media lies about what happened (i.e. Trump), then it happened.

agreed, that was probably the biggest scandal of all, with repercussions that will be felt for decades.

a potted plant could do better.

This is why censorship is at an all time high. Apparently these networks have been duping the public for decades and now the cat is out of the bag, censorship must take place or else.

And lets not forget the Border crisis. We saw babies being tossed over fences and hundreds of thousands of "migrants" wading across the Rio Grande. As Commander in Chief isn't Joe somewhat responsible for the "Whipping Incident"?

Biden put Kamala in charge and she didn't even go to the border? In other words she doesn't care.




Trump woke up every morning and it was a scandal. He commented on Twitter and it was a Constitutional crisis!! It is amazing what the Left gives a pass to when it is one of their own.



A "scandal Free year" What a joke.

Very true.......Forces mandates on the American people while allowing millions to cross our southern border who do not have to worry themselves with mandates, vaccines, tests, in the slightest, while loading them onto jets, dropping them off at several locations throughout the States. That's not a scandal?
