The Biden-Harris Administration Record (26,946 words in length, excerpt on FR)
whitehouse.gov ^ | 1/15/2025 | Joe Biden

ransomnote: Biden's self-report is 26,946 words long so I won't be posting it intact on Free Republic. One of Biden's introductory paragraphs informs the reader that this is a work of fantasy/fiction:
Today, we have the strongest economy in the world and have created a record 16.6 million new jobs. Wages are up. Inflation continues to come down. The racial wealth gap is the lowest it’s been in 20 years. We’re rebuilding our entire nation—urban, suburban, rural, and Tribal communities. Manufacturing is coming back to America. We’re leading the world again in science and innovation, including the semiconductor industry. And we finally beat Big Pharma to lower the cost of prescription drugs for seniors. More people have health insurance today in America than ever before. I signed one of the most significant laws helping millions of veterans who were exposed to toxic materials and their families, as well as the most significant climate law ever and the first major gun safety law in nearly 30 years. Today, the violent crime rate is at a 50-year low.
ransomnote: The epic length of his text 'selfie' discourages one from ever reading it in full, so I skipped to the bottom of it to see what he might have wanted to feature least. Here are the last two topics in Biden's fantasy report:
Criminal Justice Reform and Clemency
President Biden and Vice President Harris believed that effective, accountable policing is critical to making our communities safer.
- In 2022, President Biden issued an Executive Order on effective and accountable policing and criminal justice practices that requires federal law enforcement agencies to ban chokeholds; restrict no-knock warrants; mandate the use of body-worn cameras; provide de-escalation training; submit officer misconduct records into a new national database; and restrict the transfer of military equipment to local law enforcement agencies.
- President Biden continued to call on Congress to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act to advance accountability, transparency, and public trust in law enforcement.
President Biden and Vice President Harris also believed that it was time to end the country’s failed approach to marijuana:
- To help remedy the country’s failed approach to marijuana, including racial disparities, the Administration launched the process to reclassify marijuana under federal law.
- President Biden issued categorical pardons for federal offenses of simple possession of marijuana, lifting barriers to housing, employment, educational opportunities, and more for thousands of Americans.
President Biden used his clemency power to grant more pardons and commutations in four years than any of his recent predecessors.
- As mentioned above, President Biden issued categorical pardons for federal offenses of simple possession of marijuana, lifting barriers for thousands.
- President Biden commuted the death sentences of 37 of the 40 individuals on death row to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Those individuals will have their sentences reclassified from execution to life without the possibility of parole.
- In December, the President carried out the largest single-day grant of clemency in modern history, commuting the sentences of close to 1,500 individuals who were placed on home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic and who successfully reintegrated into their families and communities, and pardoning 39 individuals who were convicted of non-violent crimes.
- Throughout his term, President Biden corrected sentencing disparities and promoted public safety by issuing historic pardons and commutations for individuals with unduly long sentences convicted of non-violent offenses who had demonstrated a commitment to rehabilitation.
- President Biden redressed a historic injustice by categorically pardoning former LGBTQ+ service members convicted of private conduct because of their sexual orientation.
Supreme Court Reform
In the face of this crisis of confidence in America’s democratic institutions, President Biden released a bold plan to reform the Supreme Court:
- No Immunity for Crimes a Former President Committed in Office. President Biden called for a constitutional amendment that makes clear no President is above the law or immune from prosecution for crimes committed while in office. This No One Is Above the Law Amendment would state that the Constitution does not confer any immunity from federal criminal indictment, trial, conviction, or sentencing by virtue of previously serving as President.
- Term Limits for Supreme Court Justices. President Biden endorsed a system in which the President would appoint a Justice every two years to spend eighteen years in active service on the Supreme Court. Term limits would help ensure that the Court’s membership changes with some regularity; make timing for Court nominations more predictable and less arbitrary; and reduce the chance that any single Presidency imposes undue influence for generations to come.
- Binding Code of Conduct for the Supreme Court. President Biden called on Congress to pass binding, enforceable conduct and ethics rules that require Justices to disclose gifts, refrain from public political activity, and recuse themselves from cases in which they or their spouses have financial or other conflicts of interest.

I pasted the entire tome in Microsoft Word. In WORD’s standard page format, Biden’s grade report is 69 pages in length.

“...and have created a record 16.6 million new jobs.”
LOL, which will be revised down to 136.

It’s not just that the words are lies. Even the commas and periods are lies.

This is what in high school I called "the overkill theory". It is founded on the notion that if you use enough words the reader will give up and hand you a passing grade on the basis that you must have the right answer in there somewhere. Sometimes it worked but most of the time (for me anyway) the teacher saw right through it and gave me a C (thankfully I rarely made D or F).
BIden and Harris are using the overkill theory on the entire country, and most of us aren't buying it.

I think Elon Musk posted his surprise in finding that (paraphrasing) ‘all new jobs went to illegals’ or something like that.
