Joe Biden Issues First Veto to Reject Bill Reversing ESG Rule
Breitbart ^ | 03/20/2023 | Jacob Bliss

Posted on 03/20/2023 12:39:17 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

President Joe Biden issued his first veto on Monday, rejecting a bipartisan bill that would have reversed his Labor Department rule allowing left-wing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) policies to be considered in retirement investing.

“I just vetoed my first bill,” Biden said in a tweet announcing the move.

“This bill would risk your retirement savings by making it illegal to consider risk factors MAGA House Republicans don’t like,” Biden claimed. “Your plan manager should be able to protect your hard-earned savings — whether Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene likes it or not.”

Notice how they can use innuendo and name-calling to powerful effect. This is a very potent tactic, and one why, despite catastrophic Democrat policies, half the country (including those that hate those policies) will never vote Republican.

Override the veto. I want leftists out of my accounts, out of my pockets, out of my wallet.

The only reason I want them in my life is to offer them Christ, which in addition to their salvation will have the secondary effect of ending their leftistness.

House Republicans need to cut the Department of Labor out of the budget. I have zero problems with a fight that includes a full government shutdown. It is necessary to end this fiscal and regulatory lunacy.

If it got to his desk it isn’t “MAGA Republicans”, its bipartisan. Such an old fool liar.

It has to get to SCOTUS, he has no standing to implement this “rule” outside of congress.

They are experts at reversing the truth.

What Biden and his thugs propose is to jeopardize retirement accounts with foolish Wokeism. They always turn the truth on its head. Another great piece of baloney was their spendthrift "Inflation Reduction Act". Their lying is shameless. Every last one of them should be horsewhipped.

That’s the important point.

Biden has inverted the administrative procedures act to make himself King.

Delegation was not supposed to be an enabling act for Executive branch end runs around Congress.

They would have to get 2/3 of Congress to override and it got nowhere near that, unfortunately.

Actually, it should not require a 2/3 majority to overturn an executive fiat loosely based on existing law. But lawyers have to get their cut.

The Progs are bastards, but they’re skilled at manipulating the system they incrementally got far removed from original intentions on every bit of the constitution and legislation.

Trump should tout them as MAGA Democrats. Flip the page on dopey Joe - not that he'll notice as he stands there with his slack jawed fly catcher open.

"Joe Biden Issues First Veto to Reject Bill Reversing ESG Rule"

Conservatives should be entitled to reparations from democrats for losses of retirement nest-eggs due to inept democrat wokey legislation.

I keep remembering that when Seattle had its CHOP in 2020, in the midst of all that Marxist detritus there was an area where the gospel was being preached and people were being baptized. There's a reason we don't get to harvest the wheat while some of it looks like tares.
