Dan Crenshaw didn’t waste any time. Moments after President Joe Biden was sworn into office on Wednesday, the Texas Republican and former Navy SEAL who lost his right eye fighting for the country in Afghanistan, proved he can still see more clearly than any leftist commentator.
And he did it by describing Biden’s actions more clearly than the liberal media ever will.
he NBC list checked off the headlines of liberal priorities for the Biden years — stopping the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, rejoining the hideously flawed Paris agreement on climate change, halting border wall construction and the like.
But as Crenshaw pointed out, the real beneficiaries aren’t the American people at all.

Who this agenda helps:
Paris Agreement -> China, European diplomats
Cancel Keystone -> Russian oligarchs
No wall -> illegal immigrants
Working class American priorities, small businesses reopening and recovering....nowhere to be found.
Under President Donald Trump, the United States achieved “energy independence” — becoming a net exporter of products like oil and natural gas — for the first time since the 1950s, as CNBC reported in 2019.
That was because of pro-business Trump policies, and it hurt other global energy producers like Russia — the same country the liars on the left claimed Trump owed his office to.
Halting initiatives like the Keystone XL pipeline will only help those foreign powers.
Rejoining the Paris agreement likewise does nothing for the American people but is a boon for European leftist governments that negotiated it, and the world’s biggest polluter — China.
As The Washington Times reported in October, not only does the agreement put greater structures on the U.S. economy than China, it also actually benefits China because of its role in manufacturing the kind of products the agreement mandates — solar panels and wind turbines.
It also requires the U.S. to contribute to a global energy fund that “developing” countries like China can access for grants. So American taxpayers will be paying for China’s alleged development of “green energy” programs.
