On Wednesday (January 20), US Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky urged the new President Biden to promise that he would not transform the United States into any form of a Socialist country.
U.S. President Biden, who was sworn in on Wednesday, signed 17 executive orders within a few hours of entering the White House, many of which overturned the predecessor Trump’s administrative measures, such as returning to the Paris climate agreement, stop building border walls, close domestic energy pipelines, return to the WTO.
On Wednesday night, Republican Senator Paul of Kentucky said in an interview with Fox News Channel's "Fox News Primetime" program that Biden’s above-mentioned measures will cause more job losses, which is consistent with what he emphasized when he took office, running counter to the so-called American "unity" concept.
Paul said that Biden tried to "unify the country" by impeaching President Trump, "I don't know what he is talking about because he is really aggravating the division of the United States."
Faced with the current reality that the Democratic Party controls both the Senate and the House of Representatives at the same time, Paul said,"I think the most important thing is that we must hear that he (Biden) will not fundamentally transform the country into some form of absurd Socialist country. It may sound exaggerated, but many of the things they want to do will fundamentally transform the United States into a different country, one that is different from providing huge wealth and humanitarian assistance to millions of Americans in our country."
Paul emphasized that the key issue is that if they decide to do everything in the future with a “simple majority vote”, they may “change America very quickly and fundamentally” and undermine America’s acquisition of “great wealth and greatness”, the basic structure on which freedom is based.

McConnell: Biden made multiple wrong decisions on his first day in office
Reporter : Luo Tingting / Editor: Deming / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2021/01/22/a103037537.html / Translation, editing : Gan Yung Chyan, KUCINTA SETIA
Biden signed 17 executive orders on the first day of his inauguration, many of which reverse Trump's (Trump) policies, including returning to the Paris climate agreement and revoking Keystone XL oil Pipeline permits and immigration. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell criticized that Biden made multiple wrong decisions on his first day in office.
On January 21, Eastern Time, McConnell delivered a speech in the new Congress for the first time as the minority leader of the Senate. He said: "The president has rejoined the failed "Paris Climate Agreement"-this is a terrible agreement that will cause us to cause serious economic pain to American working families, and there is no guarantee that China (the Communist Party) or Russia will fulfill their promises. ."
He said, “In fact, the United States is already reducing carbon emissions, while China and other countries that have signed agreements continue to increase carbon emissions. Rejoining will only allow us to stifle employment opportunities in the United States, while our competitors are kept whizzing past."
McConnell also criticized the Biden administration for unilaterally canceling the Keystone XL pipeline permit. He said that the president wiped out thousands of American jobs, including union jobs, on the first day of his inauguration, let down America's powerful ally Canada, and reversed some of the progress Americans have made in energy security.
He pointed out that the project was supported by the Canadian government and Prime Minister Trudeau, and the State Department under Obama also stated that it would not cause damage to the climate. However, "just because the cancellation of the pipeline project may make people feel like it is an environmentally friendly thing, the new government has killed these jobs."
The cancellation of the Keystone XL pipeline project may affect 60,000 jobs in Canada and the United States and cause hundreds of millions of dollars in losses. The Governor of Alberta of Canada (Jason Kenney) called the Biden administration’s unfriendly decision an insult to Canada.
Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau also said in a statement that although he welcomed Biden's commitment to address climate change, he expressed disappointment in his cancellation of the Keystone XL pipeline permit.
McConnell also criticized the Biden administration's proposal to issue an amnesty for illegal immigrants, and House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy also opposed this.
On January 20, in an interview with Breitbart News, McCarthy criticized Biden’s amnesty illegal immigration plan, saying that the plan would undermine the rule of law in the United States, encourage more illegal immigration, and destroy those frustrated in the epidemic, thus reducing further employment prospects for Americans.
He said that Biden should focus his work on getting Americans back to work. At present, millions of Americans are still struggling to survive the CCP virus pandemic.
McCarthy issued a statement that day, stating that it is impossible for Republicans to pass an amnesty for illegal immigrants in the House of Representatives and that they will not cooperate on this issue.
In addition to the immigration issue, McCarthy expressed disappointment at Biden's many policies to overthrow the Trump administration as soon as he took office.
In the morning of January 21, McCarthy particularly criticized Biden's new administration for stopping withdrawal from the World Health Organization at a press conference. "In fact, just this week, a WHO own panel of experts stated that the WHO did not act quickly in the early stages of the epidemic. There was no request to change leaders and reforms. Unfortunately, this is the wrong signal. The Biden administration is rewarding failure."
