Many liberals are finally saying the quiet part out loud: the Obama and Biden administrations were masterclasses in broken promises wrapped up in pretty speeches. And now, even Ezra Klein--the New York Times columnist and progressive golden boy--is admitting it.
In Klein's new book "Abundance" he tells of how Obama and Biden sold a grand vision to Americans...and then drowned that vision in red tape. His example:
Biden's supposed $42 billion investment in rural broadband from the 2021 infrastructure bill. Guess how many states got through the process to access the funds?
........Three. Out of fifty-six jurisdictions. That's not just inefficiency. That's a government that's bloated and self-absorbed. Thank GOD and Trump for sending DOGE
to the rescue.
Klein pointed out the failures of Obama's trillion dollar stimulus plan from 2009. We were promised bullet trains, a modern electrical grid, and a revolution in digital
health records. Klein perfectly summed up the result of Obama's stimulus plan: "Yeah. 0-for-3."
Klein nailed it on one other point: failure after failure is undermining the public's faith in big government. Yeah, no shit! Americans have watched the Left blow billions on fantasy projects that never arrive while lecturing the rest of us about climate change, equity, and whatever identity group is trending this week.
Here is the Democrat Party's promised transformational change:
Gas stoves banned, biological men in women's sports, a wide-open border, EVs to replace gas powered cars until they decided to burn all EVs, and inflation
that makes your paycheck feel like monopoly money.
