National Security
Biden barred Donald Trump from receiving intelligence briefings, citing his erratic behavior and the possible danger to U.S. security.
this alone may have averted another armed conflict
Biden's Environmental protection agency to move to limit the discharge of harmful PFAS from industrial sources. These forever chemicals increase the risk of cancer and other health ailments.
Unlike Trump administration, EPA is now following science and doing the job that it is supposed to do. That is, protect the environment and health of Americans.
protecting americans and the environment ???
whatta concept 
but is this concept only supported by the left and center ??

Well that, yes, and OPEC refusing to increase production (keeping prices of fuel artificially HIGH); and the results of the economic pandemic the trump regime set in motion causing many businesses to layoff workers and production - particularly in HOUSING - which caused problems when consumer demand increased; and the stupid-ass TARIFFS trump imposed on Canadian lumber -- thus driving up the costs of the already more expensive and far smaller supply of American lumber -- which caused housing costs to SOAR! Housing is one of if not the LARGEST driver in inflationary costs - since it's the most expensive item most people invest in. HUGE inflation.
oh yaaa i forgot about trumps tarrifs on canadian lumber driving up housing costs !
Last year it was reported to be one of the largest factors driving up new home costs, and of course that would mean more people would forego new homes and create much, much GREATER competition in the housing market for used homes and rentals. Instant INFLATION in the biggest signle ticket item most people invest in! No wonder there's rising inflation!
huge factor no doubt
If one didn't already suspect, we've seen over the past few years that protecting the HEALTH of Americans is definitely NOT a priority in the trump party, including but not limited to:
• repeatedly trying to eliminate entirely THE VERY POPULAR ACA
• relaxing or eliminating several environmental standards to protect our air, water, and soil -- in favor of big business
• the American trump-pandemic, setting in motion events ultimately leading to the deaths of over 730,000 Americans....and counting....as a direct result of those events he set in motion in 2020
I would argue that letting people decide what they want to put in their body is more healthy then forcing a vaccine inside. Esp when there's no long term studies, no help for serious side effects, and it's arguable that the vaccines are putting profits over people. Taking away someones livelihood by taking away their careers (remember 99.7% survival rate for those outside the known categories that cause more harm when covid is contracted) is actually putting peoples long term health in danger all because of a vaccine that is less effective then naturally fighting the virus (for those outside the known conditions that effect contraction more).
What happened to the "my body, my choice" crowd? Maybe the gov't should give as much information as possible (even if it goes against their agenda) to the people and let people decide their own fates and stop lying to people. People would trust the gov't more. That's why we have freedoms in this country. That's what people have fought for. To be free from a tyrant gov't

Housing is the largest. And costs are up in large part because of trump tariffs and the domino effect that has on real estate

Jobless claims hit 19-month low
WASHINGTON, Oct 21 (Reuters) - The number of Americans filing new claims
for unemployment benefits dropped to a 19-month low last week.
There is cautious optimism that the expiration of federal government-funded
benefits on Sept. 6 will broaden the pool of labor in the coming months.
"Hiring demands remain robust, and the short supply of potential workers
should make employers think twice about cutting payrolls," said Jim Baird,
chief investment officer at Plante Moran Financial Advisors in Michigan.
Initial claims for state unemployment benefits fell to a seasonally
adjusted 290,000 for the week ended Oct. 16, the lowest level
since the middle of March in 2020.
It was also the second straight week that claims remained below
300,000 as employers hold on to workers in the face of an acute labor shortage.
